A Life-long Gift of Music
JEFF WEISSNER | San Fran. | 03/08/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"If there is one thing I would consider myself an expert on, it is the music of Steely Dan. (btw - if you don't know where they got the name for the band, I would urge to do a little Internet digging and find this delightful bit of information.) This is the only act of whom I own all their albums (original studio albums...I'll pass on live recordings, Best Of's and box sets). For those of you fellow experts, that means I do not own the song "FM" which doesn't appear on one of their studio releases, but on the soundtrack to the movie of the same name. I was 19 years old when their "last" album, Gaucho, was released with its hit song "Hey 19." I agree with all the reviews here about this work, and I truly can't add any more insight to what these other astute fans have said. I had the great pleasure to see them live on the last night of the "first ever" tour in the summer of '93(?), and of course it remains the best musical event of my life. (I saw them the next summer, too, but the mystery of the first show was hard to beat.) I would also recommend with the same passion ALL of Fagan's solo albums. They are absolutely wonderful musical packages! I am going to get the new album today, and I don't know what to expect, but I know that these artists have given me (us) a wonderful gift that will last a lifetime."
Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs - Gaucho Steely Dan Superb Sound
12/16/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"The attached is arguably the best CD Steely Dan completed prior to their breakup or since.This is the Mobile Fidelity 24Karat Gold Version in the orignial shrink wrap.A truly outstanding piece of jazz inflected rock/pop that is simply hard to beat if you are a fan. The sound is superb thanks to MFSL technology and remastering and ranks right up there with the Super Audio Version on the SACD Layer.This item is a collectible and you may find it periodically on Ebay for significantly more money and in U.S. $'s."
The zenith of Steely Dan's star.
fortknots | Warrenton, NC USA | 10/31/1999
(5 out of 5 stars)

"For those who thought it impossible, this CD is the cherry on top of Aja. Each cut is a tasty little world unto itself; each compelling in its own flavor; each tied to the rest by its pungent reflection of the times in which we live. The guitar in particular, both rhythm and solo, are so pristine (we're able to hear picks across strings especially well on Glamour Profession and My Rival) and well conceived as to be fascinating. None but Donald Fagen's voice would fit so perfectly. Gaucho is Steely Dan at its zenith. Sublime! This is the pop CD I'd put in a time capsule as a gift to future listeners."
