  1. Noise Reduction That Broke the Tapes: The band recorded Katy Lied with a then-new dbx noise reduction system, and a malfunction damaged the master tapes during mixing. Engineers patched it up as best they could, but Becker and Fagen were so unhappy with the sound that they said they could barely stand to listen to the finished album.
  2. A 20-Year-Old on Drums: Jeff Porcaro, son of jazz percussionist Joe Porcaro, was just 20 when he played drums on every track here except one, which went to session legend Hal Blaine. A couple of years later Porcaro co-founded Toto with other Steely Dan and L.A. session players.
  3. Off the Road for 19 Years: Fagen hated touring, and after a run of shows in 1974 Steely Dan quit playing live completely. Katy Lied was the first album they made as a studio-only project, and the band did not go back on tour until 1993.

    This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

    Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
