Reviews
Rolling Stone (4/11/02, p.106) - Ranked #13 in Rolling Stone's "50 Coolest Records". Rolling Stone (8/16/73, p.54) - "...[their] ability to play four-to-five minute rock songs in a jaunty, up-tempo fashion without becoming redundant or superfluous...may well make Steely Dan the American dance-band alternative to Slade..."
Additional information
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 favor 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 flavor-- 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.

    The seller's communications were friendly and helpful. Although from overseas, the lens filter arrived quickly. The packaging was incredible. The lens filter came bubble wrapped in a small Tupperware style box with a small gift! The vendor also included an origami envelope with a note. Honestly, this was the best ebay unboxing experience I have ever had! I have saved the seller and will be ordering more filters very soon! Thank you!

    The case I ordered was in pristine condition and came in original packaging. The seller was very attentive and provided good communication and even warned me of potential tariffs by sending this to the US but I did not have to pay anything more than the original charge. They even sent some origami which I loved!
