Aja

Informed by interviews with Donald Fagen and several others who were involved in the "Aja" sessions, Don Breithaupt's book sheds new light on Steely Dan. Interweaving behind-the-scenes revelations with trenchant musical and lyrical analysis, Breithaupt makes a compelling case that "Aja" subverted the rules of pop music, and that it stands today as one of the greatest achievements of a remarkable band.
