"Exercise Information technology Again" is a vocal equanimous by Walter Becker and Donald Fagen, performed by American rock grouping Steely Dan, which was released as a unmarried from their 1972 debut anthology Can't Buy a Thrill. The single version differed from the anthology version, shortening the intro and outro and omitting the organ solo.

Released in 1972, the song debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 on Nov 18, 1972, and reached number 6 on the US charts in 1973, making it Steely Dan's second highest-charting single.[3]

Song [edit]

"Do Information technology Again" features an electric sitar solo by Denny Dias. The "plastic organ" solo by Donald Fagen was performed on a Yamaha YC-30 with a sliding pitch-bending control.[iv]

David Palmer fronted the ring during their live prove, and sang "Practise It Again" when the group played The Midnight Special in February 1973. Donald Fagen sang the vocal on the album version.[five]

Cash Box described it as a "fine commercial effort with enough of potential as a striking record," going on to say that it "is highlighted past some fine vocal harmony and superb arrangement."[6]
