Steely Dan's "Aja" was so exciting to watch that other musicians got distracted and had to rerecord some of their parts later?

This is a 5X newly-expanded article. It's long enough, has many citations and is a neutral article about the song. I'm not seeing any text copyvios or close paraphrasing. All of the proposed hooks have references, but think ALT3 might catch a reader's eye the easiest and quickest. There are no images to consider and the author has already done QPQ. This would be a good candidate for GA, if the author's interested. GTG! :)
