Citizen Steely Dan is a four-CD boxed set by Steely Dan, released in 1993. The set is a collection of all of Steely Dan's albums (up to 1993) in chronological order, and also contains a non-LP single ("FM"), a non-LP B-side ("Bodhisattva (Live)"), a rare compilation track ("Here At The Western World"), and a previously unrelased demo of "Everyone's Gone To The Movies".

The set is not, however, a complete compilation of every track released by Steely Dan up to 1993. Missing are both sides of the band's 1972 debut single ("Dallas" b/w "Sail The Waterway"), neither of which has ever been re-issued on CD.

The tracks are taken from remastered discs.
