Sinopse

The 80's have arrived in Steely Dan land, and all is not well. After the stratospheric success of Aja on the artistic and commercial stages, Becker & Fagen returned to New York and started work on their next album. But it ended up being a tortuous recording process, full of the kinda of troubles and difficulties that can produce both great art and great loss. And we got lots of those items with Gaucho. This ends up delivering an album that is both accessible and inaccessible at the same time --- an album with an icy, mechanical demeanor covering up a range of powerful emotions just below the surface.
