Countdown To Ecstasy [Remastered]

Nu slechts € 6,50 Riding high on the success of their debut CAN'T BUY A THRILL, Steely Dan put together what was, on the surface, their most commercial and straightforward album. ''Bodhisattva'', for example, which opens the album, works a driving, jump-blues groove that seems at odds with the band's laid-back, jazz inclinations. The heavy, bluesy stomp of ''The Boston Rag'' and the slinky, edgy boogie of ''Show Biz Kids'' may make it seem as though Steely Dan was vying for favour with their more roots-oriented pop-rock contemporaries. Nothing could be further from the truth, however. COUNTDOWN TO ECSTACY is more ambitious, complex, and layered than its predecessor, with a heavier dose of jazz fusion, more subtle and textured arrangements, and an even higher level of studio craftsmanship. Both ''Razor Boy'' and ''Your Gold Teeth'' demonstrate flashes of Latin flavour-- marimba-driven bop in the former, and salsa-cum-lounge jazz in the latter. The presence of session musicians--drummer Jim Hodder and guitarists Jeff Baxter and Denny Diaz--fleshes out Donald Fagen and Walter Becker's superb songwriting and playing, making for an excellent and overlooked addition to the band's catalogue.
