Slouching Toward Number One

Kangaroos, pina cola das, rum and coke, crucifixions.

July 1, 1975
Wayne Robins & Georgia Christgau

STEELY DAN Katy Lied (ABC)

Kangaroos, pina cola das, rum and coke, crucifixions. Doctors, drunkards, betrayed friends, insanity, childhood, stockbrokers, Cuban gentlemen, suburban perverts, jazz legends and Jay and the Americans. Not to mention “Do It Again,” “Reelin’ in the Years” and “Rikki Don’t Lose That Number.” Like the best rock composers, Steely Dan’s Walter Becker and Donald Fagen write scenarios with a beginning, middle and end, filled with people:, places and things that are often intriguing, always satisfying. .
