Audio Mixer: Elliot Scheiner. Liner Note Author: Donald Fagen. Recording information: Automated Sound Studios, New York, NY; Soundworks Digital Audio; Video Recording Studios, NY; Village Recorders, Los Angeles, CA. Photographer: James Hamilton. Arranger: Donald Fagen. Quality will win out. There was no need to put a great big Steely Dan sticker on this smooth little number, the radio programmers took care of that. No tracks jar, each has a big-smile middle eight and although it may be just too slick for some people's taste, mostly it is a tremendous solo album. 'I.G.Y. (International Geophysical Year)', 'New Frontier' and the title track are gloriously easy on the ear. The cover version of Leiber and Stoller's 'Ruby Baby' is so good it sounds like a Fagen original.
