“While Steely Dan’s Pretzel Logic UHQR may not share the full-on Wow factors that its predecessors Countdown to Ecstasy and Can’t Buy a Thrill do (each in their own respective ways, of course), that doesn’t discount this 2LP set’s value when it comes to overall worthiness or what you’ll get out of repeat listens — because the more you hear it, the more you get into it. If Pretzel Logic is your personal go-to Steely Dan album, this UHQR edition is absolutely for you. If you want to test your jazz-lineage chops and get further inside the music to hear how SD are literally transitioning their studio acumen right before your very ears into a signature style that wound up blooming in full force on their subsequent albums, then this UHQR edition is definitely for you too. … Logic stands tall in all its 200g 45rpm 2LP clear-vinyl glory, just like many a great record on the phonograph should.” — Music = 8/11; Sound = 9/11 — Mike Mettler, AnalogPlanet.com. 

Steely Dan’s gold-selling third studio album Pretzel Logic, charted at No. 8 on the Billboard 200 and restored the group’s radio presence with the single “Rikki Don’t Lose That Number,” which became the biggest pop hit of their career and peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100. The 1974 album was produced by Gary Katz and was written primarily by Walter Becker (bass) and bandleader Donald Fagen (vocals, keyboards). The album marked the beginning of Becker and Fagen’s roles as Steely Dan’s principal members.
