Aja (pronounced Asia) is the sixth album by the jazz rock band Steely Dan. Originally released in 1977, it became the group's best-selling album. The credits for Aja list nearly 40 musicians, as band leaders Donald Fagen and Walter Becker pushed Steely Dan further into experimenting with different combinations of session players.
Peaking at number three on the U.S. charts and number five in the U.K., Aja was the band's first platinum album, eventually selling over 5 million copies. The record spawned a number of hit singles, including "Peg", "Deacon Blues", and "Josie." In July 1978, the album won the Grammy Award for Best Engineered Non-Classical Recording.
In 2003, the album was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame and ranked number 145 on Rolling Stone's "The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time" list. The album is often cited as one of the best test recordings for audiophiles, due to its high production standards.
Sold as untested, unsure of sound quality. Sold like this as I don't have time to listen to each record as I have over 1,000 LP records to sell.
This was part of the collection of a friend that I am helping to downsize. We want to find good homes for these special albums with music lovers who will appreciate their qualities.
I am selling exactly as I got it. Item is sold "As Is" and unfortunately I cannot accept returns. Please view all photos carefully and contact me with any questions before buying.
