'''''Can't Buy a Thrill''''' is the debut studio album by American [[rock music|rock]] band [[Steely Dan]], released in November 1972, by [[ABC Records]]. It was written by band members [[Walter Becker]] and [[Donald Fagen]], and recorded in August 1972 at [[the Village Recorder]] in Los Angeles with producer [[Gary Katz]]. The album is one of Steely Dan's most stylistically eclectic, encompassing the sounds of [[soft rock]], [[pop rock]] and [[jazz rock]], alongside philosophical, elliptical lyrics.

A commercial success, ''Can't Buy a Thrill'' peaked at number 17 on the US [[Billboard 200|''Billboard'' Top LPs & Tape]] chart, bolstered by the popular singles "[[Do It Again (Steely Dan song)|Do It Again]]" and "[[Reelin' In the Years]]", and was eventually certified [[RIAA certification|platinum]] by the [[Recording Industry Association of America]] (RIAA). It was also met with positive reviews and has appeared on many retrospective "greatest albums" lists, including ''[[Rolling Stone]]'' magazine's "[[Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time|500 Greatest Albums of All Time]]" (2003).

==Music and lyrics==
According to writers Marjorie Galen and Gordon Matthews, ''Can't Buy a Thrill'' features an upbeat [[soft rock]] style.{{sfn|Galen|Matthews|2007|p=120}} Music journalist [[Paul Lester]] said it incorporates [[Mambo (music)|mambo]], [[swing music|swing]], [[jazz]], and [[Latin music|Latin]] musical elements.<ref name="Lester">{{cite web|last=Lester|first=Paul|date=February 19, 2012|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/music/reviews/bvhf|title=Review of Steely Dan - Can't Buy a Thrill|publisher=[[BBC Music]]|access-date=February 27, 2013}}</ref> Music critic [[Stephen Thomas Erlewine]] noted that "there are very few of the jazz flourishes that came to distinguish their [later] albums", but added that the first single from the album, "[[Do It Again (Steely Dan song)|Do It Again]]", incorporates a tight [[Latin jazz]] beat, while the second single, "[[Reelin' In the Years]]", features jazzy guitar solos and harmonies.<ref name="Erlewine"/> [[Robert Christgau]] described "Do It Again" as a toned-down mambo song with "tragic" lyrics about a "compulsive" loser.{{sfn|Christgau|1981|p=370}}

"Fire in the Hole", which features "angry, strident piano" by Fagen, takes its title from [[Fire in the hole|a phrase]] used by American soldiers in [[Vietnam War|Vietnam]], and alludes to the many students who evaded the [[Conscription in the United States|draft]] in the late 1960s and early 1970s (Becker and Fagen included).<ref>{{cite book |last=Sweet |first=Brian |title= (2007) ''Steely Dan: Reelin' In The Years'' |chapter-url=https://books.google.com/books?id=5BRhDwAAQBAJ&pg=PT94 |chapter=II: Shuffling Up Your Downs |publisher=Wise Publications |year=2007 |edition=3rd |isbn=978-1846-09881-9 |page=94 |access-date=July 14, 2020}}</ref>

Reviewing the album in November 1972 for ''[[Rolling Stone]]'', James Isaacs said ''Can't Buy a Thrill'' is "distinguished by three top-level cuts and scattered moments of inspiration," but felt the band occasionally sounded "limp".<ref name="Isaacs">{{cite magazine|last=Isaacs|first=James|date=November 23, 1972|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/albumreviews/cant-buy-a-thrill-19721123|title=Can't Buy a Thrill|magazine=[[Rolling Stone]]|location=New York|access-date=February 27, 2013}}</ref> In his review for ''[[Creem]]'', [[Robert Christgau]] deemed the package "A hit single with a good album attached", and said he found the lyrics "oblique, even philosophical [...] as befit a band named after a dildo in a [[William S.
