Title: Countdown to Ecstasy
Label: MCA Records

Description
Countdown to Ecstasy is the second studio album by the legendary American rock band Steely Dan. Originally released in 1973, it was the first album written after the band had been touring extensively, which heavily influenced its energetic, tight jazz-rock fusion sound. Unlike their debut album, Donald Fagen took over as the sole lead vocalist for all tracks. The record features some of the band's most enduring and critically acclaimed compositions, including "Bodhisattva," "Show Biz Kids," and "My Old School." It remains a foundational masterpiece for audiophiles and jazz-rock enthusiasts alike.
Condition
Vinyl: Presumed MINT (unplayed)
Cover: Factory-sealed, never opened
Notes for collectors
Sealed Preservation: This copy remains completely factory-sealed in its original shrink wrap, preserving a piece of music history in unplayed condition.
Edition Details: This is a vintage US reissue from MCA's budget/mid-price line (MCA-37000 series), which was introduced after MCA acquired ABC Records. The jacket features the updated MCA 37041 catalog number printed directly on the front, back, and spine.
Spine Markings: The spine features the catalog number, artist name, title, and three printed stars (★ ★ ★), unique to this specific jacket run.
Vintage Provenance: The front cover features an original, authentic vintage Macy's department store price sticker, showing a promotional markdown from $4.98 to $3.99. Finding copies with intact department store stickers from this era adds incredible nostalgic and archival value for collectors.
Matrix/Labels
Label Details: Presumed standard blue MCA labels with the rainbow design, typical for this reissue era.
