Title: Reeling in the Years and comes up a little empty
Product review: Let's see, we've had Greatest Hits (available as an import) which was a stopgap between Aja and Gaucho; Decade (which roughly picked two tracks per LP and had some questionable choices); Gold; Citizen Steely Dan (a great way to get all the studio tracks with great sound to boot); Showbiz Kids ( a great 2-Cd anthology) and now Definitive.What we have is pretty much Decade with some track re-shuffling: East St Louis Toodle-oo is dropped (wise move), it is replaced by Dirty Work, and one track from the two CDs that were released in the 2000's are tacked on the end.However, instead of picking all the top 40 tracks (Josie, Time Out of Mind) we get album tracks such as Dirty Work.For me as a single disc Steely Dan comp, Then and Now (with the Carhenge cover is your best bet (of course FM on that, Gold, the box set, and Show Biz Kids features the sax outro, not the guitar outro as on here and Decade.
