Product Details

Recorded in 1973 with a rotating cast of session players that would become the band's signature approach, *Countdown to Ecstasy* marked the moment Becker and Fagen fully committed to the studio as their instrument. Looser and more guitar-forward than what came later, it captures a band still willing to stretch out, with "King of the World" and "Bodhisattva" hinting at the jazz-inflected perfectionism that would define their later work.


At long last, the classic Steely Dan catalog is back on vinyl. Led by Walter Becker and Donald Fagen, Steely Dan released 7 albums from 1972-1980. The vinyl series continues with Countdown to Ecstasy, the band's sprawling 1973 sophomore LP with standouts such as "Bodhisattva," "Show Biz Kids" and "My Old School." 180-gram vinyl.
