During the two-year span in which the album was recorded, the band was plagued by a number of creative, personal and professional problems
MCA, Warner Bros. and Steely Dan had a three-way legal battle over the rights to release the album
After it was released, jazz musician Keith Jarrett threatened the band with legal action for writing credit on the title song "Gaucho"
Gaucho marked a significant stylistic change for Steely Dan, introducing a more minimal, groove- and atmosphere-based format
The harmonically complex chord changes that were a distinctive mark of earlier Steely Dan songs are less prominent on Gaucho, with the record's songs tending to revolve around a single rhythm or mood
Gaucho proved to be Steely Dan's final studio album before a 12-year hiatus
