Steely Dan's seventh album changed the band's style from the first period to the last.
Released in 1980, the year before the band went on a 10-year hiatus, it featured hits such as "Hey Nineteen" and "Time Out of Mind," which reached no. 10 on the US charts.
Overcoming troubles such as an accident involving a member towards the end of the album and the last take being mistakenly erased in the studio, the album was released with a commitment to perfectionism and recording technique. It represents the band's change in style, and is full of groovy, minimalist musicality. They had to wait until 2000 for their next album, "Two Against Nature."
