Steely Dan : Pretzel Logic/Katy Lied



YOU TELL YOURSELF

YOU'RE NOT MY KIND

BUT YOU DON'T 

EVEN KNOW 

YOUR MIND

AND YOU COULD

HAVE A CHANGE OF HEART



 Pretzel Logic

 is the third

 studio album

 by American 

rock band

 Steely Dan 

released on 

February 20, 1974,

 by ABC Records.

 It was recorded

 at the Village Recorder

 in West

 Los Angeles, California, 

with producer 

Gary Katz

The album was

 the last to be made 

and released by 

the group while

 it was still an 

active touring band, 

as well as the last to

 feature the band's

 full quintet lineup of 

Becker, Fagen, 

Denny Dias, 

Jim Hodder

and

 Jeff "Skunk" Baxter

 (who subsequently left to join the Doobie Brothers),

 though it also features

 significant contributions 

from many prominent 

Los Angeles-based 

studio musicians.

A commercial 

and critical success, 

the album's hit single,

 "Rikki Don't Lose That Number", 

helped restore 

Steely Dan's

 radio presence

 after the 

disappointing performance

 of its

 previous album.

Katy Lied

 is the fourth 

studio album

 by American rock band

 Steely Dan

 released in 

March 1975, 

by ABC Records; 

reissues have since been 

released by MCA Records

 due to ABC's acquisition

 by the former in 1979. 

It was the first album 

the group made after 

they stopped touring,

 as well as their first 

to feature 

backing vocals 

by

 Michael McDonald.

In the United States,

 the album peaked

 at number 13 

on the Billboard

 Top LPs & Tape chart,

 and it has been 

certified Gold 

by the Recording

 Industry Association 

of America (RIAA). 

The single

 "Black Friday" 

charted at

 number 37 

on the 

Billboard Hot 100
