"Rikki Don't Lose That Number" is a single released in 1974 by rock/pop/jazz group Steely Dan. It charted at #4 in the United States. "Rikki Don't Lose That Number" is from the album Pretzel Logic. The keyboard riff was taken from "Song for My Father," which was released in 1964 by Jazz composer and pianist Horace Silver. The opening of both songs is nearly identical.
Victor Feldman's flopanda[1] (a kind of electric marimba) introduction to the song (opening the album) is cut from the single version.
