Exceptional difficulties plagued the album's production. By 1978, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen had established themselves as the only two permanent members of Steely Dan and were using a revolving cast of session musicians to record the songs they wrote together. However, the pair's working relationship began to become strained, largely because of Becker's escalating drug use. During the course of the recording sessions for Gaucho, Becker was hit by a car late one Saturday night while walking home to his apartment on the Upper West Side. He managed to push the woman he was with out of harm's way, but sustained multiple fractures in one leg, a sprain in the other leg, and other injuries. During his six-month recovery, he suffered from secondary infections. While Becker was in the hospital, he and Fagen continued their musical collaborations via telephone.
Becker's personal problems continued to mount when his girlfriend, Karen Roberta Stanley, died of a drug overdose at his home on January 30, 1980. Her family sued Becker for $17.5 million in January 1981, claiming that he had introduced Karen to cocaine, morphine, barbiturates, and heroin. The court later ruled in Becker's favor.
