This album is almost as good as Aja in some respects, yet still doesn't quite capture the same energy. If you thought Aja was Jazz influenced, then get ready for an even bigger reason why Jazz enthusiests adore them just as much as we do. Why SD aren't in Jazz-Rock currently is quite beyond me.
Parts of the album, such as the first track, 'Babylon Sisters', really feels just like its predecessor, but there is enough diversity here from the last venture to make the experience worthy of checking out. It certainly isn't an Aja clone in the least. It just continues waht Aja started for the band; going even further into Jazz-Rock/Fusion territory. When compared to the band's debute release, it's hard to believe that the same two men still came up with the music. While entire line-ups of the band proper have revolved and changed for years, the founding members were still here at this point, so the magic is still there, unbelievably. I credit it to the fact that the band never repeated themselves, that is to say, never do you hear two Steely Dan albums that sound exactly alike. That is a true testamate to the creativity present here.
Tracklist:
1. Babylon Sisters 5:50
2. Hey Nineteen 5:07
3. Glamour Profession 7:29
4. Gaucho 5:32
5. Time Out Of Mind 4:13
6. My Rival 4:31
7. Third World Man 5:13
