Never heard of this so, just checked it out and to be fair, its not bad.Originally Posted by AJSki2fly
I saw this rarity had been re-released, a one off album but very good if you like Prog especially with swirly organ, there is one copy left on Juno Records, snap it up while you can.

Steely Dan – 'Aja'
Label: MCA Records MCMP 31003
Format: Vinyl, LP, Album
Country: Italy
Released: 1977
Genre: Jazz, Rock, Pop
Style: Jazz-Rock, Classic Rock, Art Rock
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'
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.

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”
