Jun 20, 2018Like "Two Against Nature", "Everything Must Go" is decent if your talking about music technicians but in terms of quality songwriting, this is a million miles away from their 70's peak. Not much to remember from 40 minutes plus of music. Opening track "The Last Mall" and "Slang of Ages" are standout tracks.

What this is is a collection of subversively jazzy tunes which delights in its own cleverness (lyrical and otherwise), and which probably finds its closest companion -- among previous Steely Dan albums -- in Pretzel Logic.
