"Rikki Don't Lose That Number" is a single released in 1974 by rock/jazz rock group Steely Dan and the opening track of their third album ''Pretzel Logic''. It was the most successful single of the group's career, peaking at #4 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 in the summer of 1974.〔(Steely Dan USA chart history ), Billboard.com. Retrieved May 28, 2012.〕 The song features Jim Gordon on drums, as does the bulk of the ''Pretzel Logic'' album. The guitar solo is by Jeff "Skunk" Baxter who would soon go on to join The Doobie Brothers. Victor Feldman's flapamba〔(Liner Notes to 1999 ''Pretzel Logic'' Remaster )〕 (a variant of the marimba) introduction to the song, which opens the album, is cut from the original ABC single version. The MCA single reissue (backed with "Pretzel Logic") includes the flapamba intro but fades out just before the actual end of the track. The introductory riff is a direct nod to Horace Silver's jazz classic "Song for My Father". In the issue of ''Entertainment Weekly'', in an article titled "Back to Annandale", it was revealed that Rikki Ducornet was the apparent inspiration for the song due to her friendship with songwriter Donald Fagen while he attended Bard College. Ducornet was pregnant and married at the time, but recalled that Fagen did give her his phone number at a college party at Bard and said that she believed she was the subject of the song. Fagen, however, would not confirm the story.〔(The origins of Steely Dan | Donald Fagen | Pop Culture News | News | Entertainment Weekly | 3 )〕 ==Chart performance==
