"Gaucho" was released in 1980 as the seventh studio album by the jazz rock band Steely Dan. With it, the perfectionism of Walter Becker and Donald Fagen reached its peak: no less than 42 musicians wore them out during their two-year recordings in the studio. It goes without saying that the financial advance of their record label was mercilessly exhausted. The album is more minimalist than its predecessors, songs develop from and around a single rhythm or mood and they are primarily about extensive drug use. "Gaucho" wants to be conquered; "Babylon Sisters" and "Hey Nineteen" are real Steely Dan pearls.ReviewsALL MUSIC GUIDE *** "Three years after 'Aja' Becker and Fagen returned with the obsessively streamlined 'Gaucho'. This impeccably recorded set contained two fine hits," Hey Nineteen "and" Time out of Mind "." Babylon Sisters "was another memorable highlight, while the title track sported one of the most entrancingly convoluted melodies of their career. However," Glamor Profession ", with its sophisticated disco feel, seemed tailor-made for the perpetual happy hour." M . Schlüter in stereoplay 5/01: "Digitally re-recorded by the" original "SD sound engineer Roger Nichols, who elicits a previously unattainable sound quality from the master tapes in terms of presence, audibility and fine details."
