Do It Again/ Fire In The Hole

This essential single has a delightful 3:57 edited version of the much longer (5:56) album cut. I've made an even shorter snippet but still, at 2:30, it's about as twice as long as usual for my jukebox "snippets" — mp3 snippet so you can hear this particular recording, and so I can enjoy even more of the song as I rotate through my snippets playlist. :-) Note: This copy comes in a vintage ABC/Dunhill Records factory sleeve. The record grades Near Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio), but the audio is oh so close to Mint!

On a side note, I still struggle with what genre to put this in. I finally went with Progressive Rock this time out, but previously I've just lumped it in with "Power Pop." But as Power Pop it lacks a strong electric guitar lead with a catchy riff. Steely Dan made their own sound, even at its most conventional and approachable, as on this big 1972 hit.
