Gaucho (album)

''Gaucho'' is the seventh studio album by the American jazz rock band Steely Dan, released in 1980. The sessions for ''Gaucho'' represent the band's typical penchant for studio perfectionism and obsessive recording technique.〔(Canada.com: Steely Dan still feeling the groove ).〕〔MSN Inside Music - Re:Masters: (Steely Dan Think Fast and Tour ).〕 To record the album, the band used at least 42 different musicians, spent over a year in the studio, and far exceeded the original monetary advance given by the record label.〔''PopMatters'' review: "(Steely Dan - Guacho )."〕
During the two-year span in which the album was recorded, the band was plagued by a number of creative, personal and professional problems.〔''Mojo'' article: "(The Mojo Interview )."〕 MCA, Warner Bros. and Steely Dan had a three-way legal battle over the rights to release the album. After it was released, jazz musician Keith Jarrett threatened the band with legal action for writing credit on the title song "Gaucho".
''Gaucho'' marked a significant stylistic change for Steely Dan, introducing a more minimal, groove and atmosphere-based format. The harmonically complex chord changes that were a distinctive mark of earlier Steely Dan songs are less prominent on ''Gaucho'', with the record's songs tending to revolve around a single rhythm or mood. ''Gaucho'' proved to be Steely Dan's final studio album before a 20-year absence from the recording industry.
==Background==
Exceptional difficulties plagued the album's production. By 1978, Donald Fagen and Walter Becker had established themselves as the only two permanent members of Steely Dan, using a revolving cast of session musicians to record the songs they wrote together. However, the pair's working relationship began to strain, largely because of Becker's increasing drug use.〔
During the course of the ''Gaucho'' sessions, Becker was hit by a car while walking home late one Saturday night to his apartment on the Upper West Side.〔''The Tuscaloosa News'' article: "(Steely Dan Keeps Tackling Tough Topics )."〕〔 Becker managed to push the woman he was with out of harm's way, but sustained multiple fractures in one leg, a sprain in the other leg, as well as other injuries.〔〔''Anchorage Daily News'' article: "(Rockers in need find a friend indeed ) Link not working."〕 During his six-month recovery,〔 he suffered from secondary infections.〔 While Becker was in the hospital, he and Fagen continued their musical collaborations via telephone.〔
Becker's personal problems continued to mount when his girlfriend, Karen Roberta Stanley, died of a drug overdose at his home on January 30, 1980.〔''The Madison Courier'' article: "(Personalities )."〕〔''The Miami News'' article: "(Steely Dan founder named in drug death allegation )."〕 Her family attempted to sue him for $17.5 million in January 1981, claiming that he had introduced the woman to cocaine, morphine, barbiturates, and heroin.〔 The court later ruled in Becker's favor.
