520    Geffen's 2006 release The Definitive Collection is a mere 
       16 tracks long, which is a bit short for covering Steely 
       Dan's career. They may not have landed many singles within
       the Billboard charts -- only 15 between their 1973 debut, 
       Can't Buy a Thrill, and their 2000 comeback, Two Against 
       Nature -- but they had plenty of standards on album rock 
       radio, giving the impression that they had more charting 
       hits than they actually did. The Definitive Collection 
       attempts to negotiate the two: it has the biggest singles 
       -- "Do It Again," "Reeling in the Years," "Rikki Don't 
       Lose That Number," "Deacon Blues," "Peg," "Hey Nighteen" -
       - and it has such radio favorites as "Bodhisattva," "My 
       Old School," "FM," and "Babylon Sisters." This disc does 
       take into account their new-millennium comeback, pulling 
       "Cousin Dupree" from Two Against Nature and "Things I Miss
       the Most" from 2003's Everything Must Go, which leaves 
       less space for such Steely Dan standards as "Josie," "Time
       Out of Mind," "Show Biz Kids," "Any Major Dude Will Tell 
       You," and "Aja." While those songs are missed, listeners 
       wanting a more exhaustive compilation always have the 
       option of purchasing 2000's excellent double-disc set 
       Showbiz Kids: The Steely Dan Story 1972-1980 instead. For 
       those who just want a sampler of many, but not all, of 
       Steely Dan's biggest and best songs, this will suit them 
       fine. Stephen Thomas Erlewine
