Another indispensable LP in my opinion. :)

Another essential album by the Stones. I actually prefer it to 'Sticky Fingers'.
Steely Dan – 'Aja'

Prompted by another post, I though I would give it a spin. I have a problem with all of Steely Dan's output: essentially finding them to be superbly recorded but "easy listening AOR". The sort of thing you put on when you don't know what else to play, and you don't want to be challenged.
They all vary in the degree of anodyne listening, but Aja is to my mind not one of the better examples in that regard. Sorry.
Being a sucker for punishment, I continued with this:
Steely Dan – 'Can't Buy A Thrill'
https://i.discogs.com/CwkLLRngJ3tD9l...gxLmpwZWc.jpeg
Label: ABC Records – ABCL 5024
Format: Vinyl, LP, Album, Reissue, Black Labels
Country: UK
Released: 1974
Genre: Rock
Style: Pop Rock, Classic Rock
Somewhat better, which is perhaps to be expected from a debut album.
Now for something a bit more challenging:
The Doors – 'The Doors'
https://i.discogs.com/lQlrlESDy0go4W...c4LmpwZWc.jpeg
Label: Elektra – EKS 74007
Format: Vinyl, LP, Album, Stereo

I too saw that post, and thought about putting it on. But I was have a bit of a nineties night. So I may play tonight when I get home. But really "Countdown to Ecstasy" is the one I like best, always has been.Quote:
