I think it depends on when you first happened upon Steely Dan. They were so innovative that some of their stuff might seem trite if you came upon it after their idiom was coopted.

I loathed Steely Dan until I was about 26. Then, someone whose musical opinions I highly respect, suggested I give them a fresh listen. It was a revelation to me how much I enjoyed them.
Their lyrics are biting and their arrangements are so damn precise. Great, great stuff.
And if you buy the boxed set - you get all their albums [save the 2 recent ones] on 4 CDs
