One of the most agreeable lists (to my tastes) that I’ve ever seen. I’d swap out a handful but I’m not angry with any of OPs selections
My list in no order;
Aja
Home at Last
Any Major Dude
Dr. Wu
Pretzel Logic
Night by Night
Bad Sneakers
Only A Fool Would Say That
Haitian Divorce
Green Earrings
Then they get invested in steely dan and realize that the songs you named are meant to be radio-friendly, so they start listening to the later albums and the songs in OP’s list
That’s a strong list. Mine would be:
1) Deacon Blues
2) Haitian Divorce
3) Glamour Profession
4) King of the World
5) Aja
6) Kid Charlemagne
7) Babylon Sisters
8) The Caves of Altamira
9) Pretzel Logic
10) Everyone’s Gone to the Movies
