To Sean Briskey, the guitarist recreating Larry Carlton’s infamous, world class solo, note for note: incredible! I’m so very impressed. All you guys deserve way more TH-cam subscribers, and I’ll do my part to spread the word among my fellow Dan Fans...
I saw these cats last nght at the Wildey in Edwardsville, they are an outstanding band, Tight, really tight. Great show, everyone needs to see this band. One of the best shows I've seen all year.
WOW. NAILED IT. So impressive to see such talented, awesome musicians, and then they have vocal chops to boot, which is like a huge dollop of whipped cream and cherry on the already delectable cake.
OUT FRICKING STANDING; I have seen a lot of bands cover Steely Dan hits in my time, I can honestly say one of the best, if not the best I’ve seen, vocals, guitar solo, keyboards, note for note, spot on. I was waiting for Michael Macdonald’s voice to come in on the background vocals. Good job.
I ran into Colin’s dad out in the wild and I told him how much I loved his work as well as his son’s. His dad is a very well musician, writer, and producer that has written hits for his groups as well as others. Chances are you probably know them.
This is my new favorite band! These guys are the real deal. A Steely Dan tribute band is a most noble pursuit. Becker and Fagen would be impressed and flattered.
When i clicked the video, I'll admit that my expectations were low, but as soon as his voice hit, my jaw dropped!!! Absolutely outstanding cover of this classic! And i still can't get over how close your voice is to Fagen's, amazing.
Seen these kats in Cleveland, OH 2 weeks ago......PHENOMENAL performance, probably the best sounding show I've ever been to in this type of setting as well. I literally discovered these guys about 6 days before I looked up their schedule to find out they were a few hours away from me that week......SO glad we made the trip to see them perform these epic hits that are, as a guitar player myself, extremely hard to execute. And to recreate it live for people is a genuine treat to the ears ! Thanks fellas, hope to see ya in western PA soon !!!!
Wow! Just stumbled across you guys. I'm a product of the 70's. SD is one of my favorite groups. You guys are excellent. You and Leniod and Friends are the best cover bands I have heard.
I've seen a few Dan tribute bands over the years. None, so far, can touch you guys; and the others had brass and vocal gals and percussion! Your lead vox is the best and closest to Donald's. Amazing job, guys. (-:
Have you heard Jerry Marotta’s band, I forget what they’re called but they’re on TH-cam here and they are pretty amazing that lead singer really nails Donald. These guys are great though for sure.
Hey how about some recognition for Sean's outro solo? Really tremendous work. Yes, one needs to be respectful of the original material, but the sign of a true musician is that you can at the same time add to that legacy. Has Larry Carlton heard you play?
Beautiful! Really nicely done, I got a little worried when I realized the bass player was going to have to do a McDonald but goddamn did he pull it off
This isnt the hardest song to cover but it's not the easiest either.most covers I've heard of this amazing song were cool and some sounded quite well but never quite the same as the original studio version.which I understand people have their own styles and put there own twist on it but to be able to play such a intriquite song in the style of the artist who wrote it and almost entirely the same with the exception of a few parts shows great musicianship and a great ability to really listen to what the original musicians are doing. and to pick it apart and use there musical knowledge to go into the studio and remake that sound almost exactly like the original,especially a sound like this masterpiece also shows a great amount of patience and dedication into music itself, and not just on the level of music in it's basic form,not just as an art form but really throwing yourself into the science of the music and the technical parts of it,really learning and retaining the music in every aspect.i love to see that there's still musicians that really invest themselves into the sound and what you can do with it.brooklyn charmers,I applaud you.love the sound love your energy,love your precision on this cover.keep it up.never stop lovin the music,and love from Savannah ga.🤙🤙
Tasty. Really nice -- flawlessly performed with a distinctive flair and with an absolutely monster version of one of the best guitar solos in rock. And an equally ridiculous guitar outro.
Great job! I'm actually getting ready to perform in a band (keyboards and vocals) that'll do this tune. I wrote a keyboard part that was funky and a bit elaborate. It ended up being too complicated to try and play and sing all at the same time, at least in the time I have to put it together. I'm really glad I came across this video - your pianist sings like a bird, and his piano playing is the perfect balance between funky and "pad-y" to fill out the sound without creating coordination issues. Thank you for the insights and fabulous playing!

That bass... THAT BASS!!!
"Is there bass in the band?...
Yes! There's bass in the baaaand"
Love for the bassist backing vocals too.
@@lokilxix Yea that guy can play. I'm a bassist but stand in awe as my cats are my only audience most of the time.
He's pretty damn good and smooth.
The bassist was very good and had it down beautifully.
The drummist impressed me, too!
thumbs up for people who care about musical competence
Competence? You damn them with faint praise.
Nailed that solo..one of the best solos ever put on tape in my humble opinion.
Absolutely.
Absolutely. With the clean sound that solo has to be spot on. Very nice.
Note perfect for sure but note picking nor sound. Just goes to show how uniquely takented. Larry Carlton and his semi-solid Gibson was...
@@stevemd6488 C'mon he nailed it. Live. Period. You just couldn't help yourself. ROTFL. Different pickup?
@@stevemd6488 🙄
Q: Is there gas in the car?
A: Yes, there's gas in the car
You mean “cahhh”.
There was, in fact, not a lot of gas in the car.
Probably my fave Steely Dan line/lyric! Call and response, so clever
To Sean Briskey, the guitarist recreating Larry Carlton’s infamous, world class solo, note for note: incredible! I’m so very impressed. All you guys deserve way more TH-cam subscribers, and I’ll do my part to spread the word among my fellow Dan Fans...
It wasn’t note for note. Idk what that crap at the end was
Amazing, one of the hardest solos to play
Excellent, outstanding! 😎
How comforting to know Steely Dan is in good hands. That was FANTASTIC! It does an old heart good I tell ya.
I saw these cats last nght at the Wildey in Edwardsville, they are an outstanding band, Tight, really tight. Great show, everyone needs to see this band. One of the best shows I've seen all year.
Thanks so much Brian!!! Hope to see you again in February!!
We are going to the Wildey show this year (2024), you guys sound awesome!
WOW. NAILED IT. So impressive to see such talented, awesome musicians, and then they have vocal chops to boot, which is like a huge dollop of whipped cream and cherry on the already delectable cake.

As a life long Steely Dan fan and this being one of my favorite songs this is one of the best covers I've ever heard!!!!
Great voice, harmonies, excellent musicianship. Tight. Enjoyable. I'd pay to see ya...
Well, you can because they tour. I saw them for the second time last night and I'm telling you you will never be disappointed. These guys are awesome.
Nice vocals too. Nice to see young people doing this so well.
Thanks! :)
Nice name
I ran into Colin’s dad out in the wild and I told him how much I loved his work as well as his son’s. His dad is a very well musician, writer, and producer that has written hits for his groups as well as others. Chances are you probably know them.
But ..such proficient musicianship should be put to use creating your own music ....@@BrooklynCharmers
This is my new favorite band! These guys are the real deal. A Steely Dan tribute band is a most noble pursuit. Becker and Fagen would be impressed and flattered.
Probably my favorite SD song, and cover by you guys....so far!
Killer! :) 😎 All there stuff is killer Posted by Chillie aka Cool Pop - 5/2023
Dont EVER stop sharing this Music! Really tight, Musicianship!Thanks to the WHOLE TROUP! That Larry Carlton effort IS TIMELESS EPIC!
Amazing bass line.....smokin...
When i clicked the video, I'll admit that my expectations were low, but as soon as his voice hit, my jaw dropped!!! Absolutely outstanding cover of this classic! And i still can't get over how close your voice is to Fagen's, amazing.
And his mannerisms even mimic Donald Fagen’s. These kids probably weren’t even born when this song came out. Amazing!
You need to see them live. They are beyond amazing.
That frikkin bass line though...
Best cover of this song I've ever heard. Nice.
Couldn't be any better and I have been listening to this song since the 70s.
That guitarist absolutely slayed.
I am blown away gentlemen. Thank you for bringing a live performance feeling right to my tablet. You added a liiitle magic to my evening!
Wow! Absolutely fantastic!
I've seen a few Steely Dan cover bands in my time... nothing compares to these guys... just awesome.
Seen these kats in Cleveland, OH 2 weeks ago......PHENOMENAL performance, probably the best sounding show I've ever been to in this type of setting as well.

SUPERB cover of that guitar solo!
one of cleanest and most accurate covers of Steely Dan .. I'm actually using this one to learn the song, same key as the original, and cleaner
Guitar, vocals, key board, percussion all perfection! Love this!
Excellent cover, everything's in place, sound, interpretation,style 👌 A great tribute to one of the greatest bands ever 😍
The dude that had the fucking HONOR of busting out the closing guitar on Kid fucking NAILED IT. love!
Damn! You covered that Larry Carlton solo note for note. I'm impressed.
Wow! Just stumbled across you guys. I'm a product of the 70's. SD is one of my favorite groups. You guys are excellent. You and Leniod and Friends are the best cover bands I have heard.
What a fantastic cover...true to the original. One of my favorite songs. Thanks!!!
You guys are so tight. Best Steely Dan cover band anywhere
No comparison at all.
One helluva band
Yes indeedy!
So good to see the music of Steely Dan in such good hands; well done and thank you! 🎸etc🍾❤️
My favorite steely Dan cover band ! Nailed that solo man!
Larry Carlton would approve. Nailed the solo.
The best SD tribute band? If not, then probably the most faithful to the original recordings. Really been enjoying listening to this band's SD covers.
Excellent cover of a great Steely Dan song. You nailed the Larry Carlton lead. So good. Subscribed!
Must be some competition when it comes to who gets to play what solos!
Even brought in Mike MacDonald for those signature vocal back-ups!!! 😅❤
Dan Fans understand the creativity & musicality of Steely, so BRAVO!! Great cover! DOCTOR WU anything on Katy Lied , Please!
I've seen a few Dan tribute bands over the years. None, so far, can touch you guys; and the others had brass and vocal gals and percussion! Your lead vox is the best and closest to Donald's. Amazing job, guys. (-:
Have you heard Jerry Marotta’s band, I forget what they’re called but they’re on TH-cam here and they are pretty amazing that lead singer really nails Donald. These guys are great though for sure.
This cover is *perfection*
That bassists grin when he hit the low note at the beginning. Pure joy.
Keyboardist has sunglasses on in a very well lit studio.. cool:) u guys are awesome, wish i had a band like u
Awesome! Well done! Found you looking for "Kid Charlemagne Covers".
Wow!!
Nice Drumming too！
Doing Steely Dan RIGHT!
Hey how about some recognition for Sean's outro solo? Really tremendous work. Yes, one needs to be respectful of the original material, but the sign of a true musician is that you can at the same time add to that legacy. Has Larry Carlton heard you play?
Colin sounds just like Donald Fagan. Wow!
Bravissimo! Brooklyn certainly owes the charmer in me ;-)
Yes, there’s gas in the caaaar
👍🌺
Beautiful! Really nicely done, I got a little worried when I realized the bass player was going to have to do a McDonald but goddamn did he pull it off
All great. Impressive backing vocals.
The musicianship here is just incredible. And the guitar solos achingly beautiful. I actually like this version better than Steely Dan’s!!
Not easy to play Purdie. My favorite Steely drummer hands down.
Purdie wasn't the technical monster that, say, Gadd is, but his feel is second to none. You play "Pretty" so well. Truly impressed.
Also, very good mix.
Thanks Stephen! Colin (keys/vocals) is an audio engineer and studio owner of The Jam Lab in Brookfield, IL, (the home base for the Charmers!)
@@BrooklynCharmers tell Collin he needs to take it easy on the auto tune 😂😂😂 otherwise, very inspiring performance. Nailed it!!
Damn that solo at the end was tasty, flawlessly executed
I saw these guys in Broad Brook, CT about 1.5 years back. They did a good job.
Best professional SD cover band I’ve heard, and I’ve heard dozens. Bravo!
You guys kill it on these steely dan tunes! Amazing work!!
Wow, heard of you guys...never dreamed you were this good! Such a faithful re-creation, thanks for your dedication in making this
I am incredulous they carried it out to my discerning ear for Steely Dan! Very, very good!
You must buy tickets to see BC do The Royal Scam lol live for this song along. Just incredible!
WOW !

Outro solo was very tasteful and unique. Bravo!
That was outrageously good - put a big smile on my dial.
As a seasoned musician, it didn't take me long to figure out how authentic, talented and well rehearsed this band is! Fantastic job!
Didt realise I was a Steely Span fan until I heard you guys! Awesome songs great chops great tunes good voices. Love it.
Spectacularly good chaps - brilliant
GREAT!!!! only missing piece is at 1:46 the guitar after the lyric "Paint the Face" Solo was PERFECT
Can‘t wait for a possible PEG performance and guitar solo. You guys are awesome
Yep, would be one of my favorites too.
Very nice. The guitar slinger nailed those solos…
🎼👌
A tribute to Owlsey , the bay area acid king and manufacturer in the 60s . Great job guys !
They do steely and the dan very proud 🎷
That was one of the best covers of The KId. Bravo!
Damn, great vocals, great overall rendition of Kid Charlemagne!!
Freakin nailed it. Wow , great groove and playing!
Nice job Kevin Campbell 3:43 ! Very tastefully done
He friggin nailed that Michael McDonald part. Oh my.
The steely and the dan would like this 🎷
Tasty. Really nice -- flawlessly performed with a distinctive flair and with an absolutely monster version of one of the best guitar solos in rock. And an equally ridiculous guitar outro.
Bravo....Bravo...
lovely outro solo😍
I saw you guys for the second time last night. You guys are awesome! I can't wait to see you again! I love when Colin sings!
Simply outstanding.... all of you!
So tasty! Do you guys tour? If so, you need to get on down to Atlanta!
i sincerely hope that Fagen has seen these guys. he would be so proud. RIP Walter Becker, you were so amazing and youll always be sorely missed.
Great job! I'm actually getting ready to perform in a band (keyboards and vocals) that'll do this tune. I wrote a keyboard part that was funky and a bit elaborate. It ended up being too complicated to try and play and sing all at the same time, at least in the time I have to put it together.

Great drummer!
Well done guys. You perfectly nailed it❤ hi from italy
