Review
As should be expected, Steely Dan's four-disc box set isn't like all the other rectangular pop-music retrospectives/tombstones. Not for Messrs. Walter Becker and Donald Fagen the typically bloated, ego-jacking crate padded out with childhood recordings, suspect cassette demos, and broken-down session takes, annotated by candid snapshots purloined from some distant relative.
Nope, this is simply the Dan Mach 1's complete oeuvre, from the craft-conscious pop of Can't Buy a Thrill to the jazzy torpor of Gaucho, laid out chronologically and neatly compressed into four discs, with not even a handful of "bonus" cuts (a live recording of "Bodhisattva", a 1971 demo of "Everyone's Gone to the Movies" with Flo and Eddie on the side, "Here at the Western World", a Royal Scam outtake, and their obligatory soundtrack cameo, "FM") to colour outside the lines. The liner notes are suitably smart, even if they occasionally strain trying to stay astride of B&F's patent sardonicism. For the aspiring Steely Dan completist, a fine place to start.

CD Description
For fans of the legendary Steely Dan, this four-disc box set is a dream come true. Citizen Steely Dan 1972-1980 contains every track (plus one rare demo) from every album by the ultra-creative team of Donald Fagen and Walter Becker. The accompanying book is stuffed full of rare photos, cover art, album reviews and other info you never thought you'd see about these reclusive artisans. Tales of Fagen and Becker's infamous marathon recording sessions and intense working environment aside, the results of their efforts are spectacular. All the hits are here, of course, but it is the massive amount of additional material that makes this set so special. The deep soul of "Dirty Work" from Can't Buy A Thrill or the funk of "Your Gold Teeth" from Countdown To Ecstasy are justa couple of early examples of their craftsmanship. The unique performance of Duke Ellington's "East St. Louis Toodle-oo" followed by "Parker's Band" from the sensational Pretzel Logic reveal the source of the jazz influence that permeated Fagen & Becker's work. The later material from Royal Scam, Aja and Gaucho takes on a sheen of refinement and it, like the rest of their art, is best enjoyed in its entirety.

Citizen Steely Dan is a four-CD boxed set musical album by Steely Dan, released in 1993. The set is a collection of all of Steely Dan's albums (up to 1993) in chronological order, and also contains a non-LP single ("FM"), a non-LP B-side ("Bodhisattva (Live)"), a rare compilation track ("Here at the Western World"), and a previously unreleased demo of "Everyone's Gone to the Movies". The set is not, however, a complete compilation of every track released by Steely Dan up to 1993. Missing are both sides of the band's 1972 debut single ("Dallas" b/w "Sail the Waterway"), neither of which has ever been re-issued on CD. Until 1998, this was the only place to find the remastered versions of the Steely Dan albums. However, because the albums were split up irregularly amongst the discs (in some cases with the track order changed), the remastered studio albums were issued in 1998, albeit without bonus tracks.
