COMENTARIO
Lanzado el 20 de febrero de 1974 por ABC Records es el tercer álbum de estudio de Steely Dan. 
Grabaron el álbum en The Village de Los Angeles con el productor Gary Katz y prominentes músicos de estudio con sede en Los Angeles.
El álbum fue un éxito comercial y de crítica y el simple "Rikki Don't Lose That Number" restauró la presencia radial de la banda después del fracaso comercial del álbum previo "Countdown to Ecstacy".
