I am 54 years on this earth.
The Pretzel Logic album is my favorite SD album. I remember when it was released and I purchased it as soon as soon as I heard “Do it again”.
That being said, SD musicians are the best. The band members are/were the most technically proficient musicans of their genre. IMHO, SD will be considered the most innovative and smooth group of musicians ever to record music.
Any SD song will make me happy. |

Even some of the unreleased stuff like The Bear is really freakin' amazing.
Fagen solo is still good but not as good.... Tomorrow's Girls is a good tune, also New Frontier and some of the other Nightfly stuff.
Not really a fan of Becker's solo stuff or his vocal contributions to the Dan.

"Two Against Nature" floored me when it first came out. Though there's not a bad Steely Dan album, I really think there is something perfect about this one.
I've been enjoying "The Last Mall" from "Everything Must Go" lately. Very apropos with the Mayan Apocalypse approaching!

But im stickin' with Reelin as my favourite. | Yes, i was going to pipe in that it was "Do It Again"...which, for some reason, I liked the 1st time I heard it (I was 14 in '72 & "Do It Again" was totally different from everything else on my plate). "Reeling In The Years", from the same album, was another winner.
