I just looked up those amazing speakers on HI Engine.  Whoa, those look FUN.  There is  a freshly restored pair for sale in TN for about the 1976 asking price.

You are correct but "Ricky Don't Lose That Number" is about Derringer.

Becker and Fagan went to meet him but couldn't convince him to team up with them at the time.

lordmelton, I enjoys learning trivia facts about Steely Dan cuts.

Not until now did I pull up the wiki take on Rikki- No mention of Rick?

Of course wiki is info can be limited by whoever last edited info. Perhaps they were not privy to the Derringer thing?

His early work was an influence on my musical life.
