Just found "everything must go" for $40. Just completed the collection minus "Two Against Nature" nice albums Friend!
What version Aja? Gaucho?
all are original pressings from the year they were released!
You are a total major dude. How do they sound?? What is your player set-up?
they all sound amazing bc steely dan, but the aja pressing is my favorite. headphones will blow your mind. i have an audiotechnica 120 and a tube amp.
Nice, just need the rest of the Nightfly trilogy and sunken condos.
I have original copies of Aja, Steely Dan and Royal Scam from relatives. The copy of Aja I got from my in-laws is absolutely stunning, the sleeve is still glossy and the record is as if it’s barely been played. Easily a gem of my collection.
I've got first pressings of all except Pretzel and Katy. Somehow going through what I owned I lucked out and each random copy was actually a first pressing. Including Nightfly.
Well done!
I'm still missing Countdown and TAN
labels?
I just found a colored Aja vinyl today!! Super exciting find!!
Nice!! I have them all as well but my copy of Royal Scam isn’t in great shape. Hope to find a better one at some point.
This is a great group !
Dude I've been looking for a copy of Katy Lied everywhere, so hard to find and IMO their #1 so it's killing me. Just missing that and TRS to finish up my collection.
I need all except CBAT and aja
Those were some of the last cds I got off bmg or columbia house in about 1997. I love SD, but was also into a 70s revival, also got some Traffic in that haul too. That must have been on the edge of the coming Danaissance.
I mean, they kinda don’t
How do I reeeeaaach these kiiiiiids???
The TAN and EMG release from Analogue Productions are worth every penny at $60 each. They are absolutely flawless, flat, and full of life in the sound department. It's a great feeling to complete the original 7. I used eBay mainly as my source for them. I have two copies of the Royal Scam and one turned up as a UK pressing which was a cool surprise. Happy Spinning!
