The saxophonist nailed the solo! Nearly played like the original version...while competently AND completley performing it with feeling and personal ownership. Great cover of a beautiful song.
It is great how Steely Dan brings people together across the generations. A bunch of guys who liked Steely Dan back in the days and two grand daughters to back up the vocals.
ALL the subtle nuances as sonically pertein to the song have been captured. Can you imagine all the art to actually create the song. Thank You Steely Dan and Thanks to this Band for this Superb Cover!! ♥️
Holy crap! This was got dam awesome! Hands down one of the best covers of any song I have every heard! And the brass section, fellas you killed it. Hell, everyone killed it. One of my favorite Steely Dan songs off my favorite album and you guys and gals rocked it!
Very obvious that these guys love what their doing as it shows up in the performance of another wonderful Steel Dan tune. Also want to offer a special shout out to the backup singers. They stayed perfectly in their lane for this song.
Spectacular cover!!! All vocals, backup instrumentation, solos on point and brought with the enthusiasm this song calls for!!! Congratulations to this band for being able to pull it off!!!
Smashing cover, captured the Fagen vocals and feeling perfectly, backup singers on point, sax was class, bass was incredible, keyboard perfect, drummer was amazing guitars were so good I almost didn’t notice them. The feel of SD was perfect, it felt like them. Congratulations and thank you
This is superb!!! Very well played and sung. And the sax solos are awesome, I think it's Tripp Sprague soloing (I know him from the Peter Sprague bands). Steely Dan is my ever favorite band. Greetings from Portugal.
That's a Great! tribute band. They nailed it! Playing live is not easy with that many musicians on stage at once. Hell I would pay to see them. For those who have negative comments or thumbs down I have something to say to you. Get a life! that's real talent in harmony 💯!
Lead and backing vocals are so, so good, and the tenor solo does Pete Christlieb very proud indeed. Met Pete one summer at Gresham, Oregon's Mt. Hood Jazz Festival and he graciously signed my "Aja" album jacket.
EXCELLENT. I love the Jazz/rock genre especially Steely Dan. You guys stay right there. You're performances of Steely Dan are awesome. Stay Jazz/Rock cool.
I've been listening to these tunes since they were released, play multiple instruments and was heavily involved in production and without a DOUBT, this is one of the best tribute bands I've EVER heard... They not only absolutely nail the orchestration and arrangements, they capture the uber-hipster vibe of Walter and Donald perfectly! Well done!!!
Very nice Hank Easton ! Don't you love it when people think they are instructing you how to play your music ? If they don't like it why are they telling how to sing ? Who needs critics ?
The saxophonist nailed the solo! Nearly played like the original version...while competently AND completley performing it with feeling and personal ownership. Great cover of a beautiful song.
Better than . . . .
I didn't think The back up singer girls didnt quite the saprano pitch as originals but the song has always been one of my very favorites.
just like the lyrics of the song, he plays just what he feels
Everyone but the lead singer nailed it. Shit he was crap. I sing first tenor and I would be ashamed of such a performance.
Donald and the late Walter Becker would be proud! Excellent job guys! Keep doing what your doing .
All musicians and singers nailed this awesome performance of one of the great Steely Dan songs. Kudos to the excellent bass guitarist
bass guitar was awesome...

Best Steely Dan tribute band I’ve ever heard. Respect to the drummer who nailed the drum part. All the musicians onstage did a hell of a job,
Yeah, I'm 73 and no one is more a Dan fan than me. These guys and gals hit the mark!!
The ladies vocals are on point! And that horn section is delicious, so is the guitarist. The entire group is lovely! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
on point 😂
@@spacejockey4746 And don't forget their vocals are delicious! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
@@spacejockey4746yes kid
The camera man was impressed with the backup singers too! The were practically the only ones who got closeups. Great band and an awesome cover!
The girls are perfect. Just right. Nor overperforming in the slightest, just like the rest of the band.
i clicked on this with skepticism about how well someone could do a cover, definitely a really good take on it. he absolutely nailed those sax solos
It is great how Steely Dan brings people together across the generations. A bunch of guys who liked Steely Dan back in the days and two grand daughters to back up the vocals.
Steely Dan ...Not the Easiest music to play live. Well Done.
I agree. It takes a lot of people to do a Steely Dan song justice. I counted 12 people on stage, well done.
An obviously to sing.
That's an understatement, Kevin.
The sax player has fantastic feel to his playing
I agree. Solid. He takes Pete Christlieb's solo and makes it his own.
He just plays what he feels
yep
Sax player is playing .just what he feels
Agreed. I like how he fattened it up a bit by broadening some of the notes. Super tone, too.
We're so lucky here in San Diego that have this band perform for us.. thank you Hank and the whole band..
ALL the subtle nuances as sonically pertein to the song have been captured.
Can you imagine all the art to actually create the song. Thank You Steely Dan and Thanks to this Band for this Superb Cover!!
♥️
Well said. This is ambitious. And very well executed
The backup girls are great
The band is great and the young ladies are fantastic! Great vocals!
The girl on the far-right is Hanks daughter. The lead guitarist extraordinaire... He must feel so proud I know I would.
Hands down an outstanding achievement. All praise to your insight and hard work. Thank You Steely Damned!
Bravo to the background girls also!!!
Holy crap! This was got dam awesome! Hands down one of the best covers of any song I have every heard! And the brass section, fellas you killed it. Hell, everyone killed it. One of my favorite Steely Dan songs off my favorite album and you guys and gals rocked it!
I agree this is the best cover of this song I've ever heard. The sax player is godzilla on it the backup....kudos. this was amazing

The sax, the bass, the band! Amazing.
Your backup singers knock it out of the park , great harmony ! You’re Fantastic
They Call Me What ?
Very obvious that these guys love what their doing as it shows up in the performance of another wonderful Steel Dan tune. Also want to offer a special shout out to the backup singers. They stayed perfectly in their lane for this song.
Look at those girls... All stiff and nervous and yet incredible harmony. Like a great, fresh pair of strings Just great!!!
One of them is Hank's (lead guitar) daughter. Not sure which one.
So I've been told. I was emailing with Ruby(Etoile) about them.@@bfogelstrom
Wow they are absolutely amazing…so tight! Could listen all day.
Almost got teary eyed there!😊
You guys are fantastic. Steely Dan rules jazz/rock, and you guys do it with such class.
Loved it. Very Impressive band.
Spectacular cover!!! All vocals, backup instrumentation, solos on point and brought with the enthusiasm this song calls for!!! Congratulations to this band for being able to pull it off!!!

This is superb!!! Very well played and sung. And the sax solos are awesome, I think it's Tripp Sprague soloing (I know him from the Peter Sprague bands). Steely Dan is my ever favorite band. Greetings from Portugal.
I’m loving that bass.
Fantastic !!!!! The ladies harmonizing and the sax player nailed it !!
This was so great !! Thanks for the ride !
Fabulous backing vocals - a superb band performance

Ignore the Trolls, sometimes they are AI generated. It's crazy but true.
Those backup singers! Dang wow!
Wow, that sax solo! Nailed it! Talented musicians!
just playing the music of Steely Dan, adds tothe quality of life. Well done,,
I just love the guy at the back, on the bass....................well done to all.........h6................uk
Saw them live in 93. Was the best $5 I ever spent.
Five star, best ever. Unreal accuracy and precision.Fantastic
Lead and backing vocals are so, so good, and the tenor solo does Pete Christlieb very proud indeed. Met Pete one summer at Gresham, Oregon's Mt. Hood Jazz Festival and he graciously signed my "Aja" album jacket.
the vocals sank the whole thing man. band itself is great, but the vocals are so weak here.
A great rendition of a classic.... backup singers supremo.....lead vocalist, not so much, still a quality performance....
Simply beautiful and stellar. Donald and Walter would be so proud! Love the look and sound of the ES 335 guitar the lead singer plays.
EXCELLENT. I love the Jazz/rock genre especially Steely Dan. You guys stay right there. You're performances of Steely Dan are awesome. Stay Jazz/Rock cool.
Incredible bass lines and just love cranking up the amp and rocking this tune . Steely Dan 👍👍👍
Superb instrumental work on this, especially Tripp Sprague on the sax solo. The harmonies from the ladies are spot on, too.
Great, Great performance 🎭 🙏
WOW !!! My favorite Steely Dan song & they do it justice.
Just perfect in every way!
Very nice version! Love to listen to it!
Absolutely incredible delicious song and Melody! Masterpiece!!
Great performance of really great music. I can't believe all the critics here, they probably can't sing or play and no doubt clap on 1 and 3.
Totally agree, to hell with the critics!
What do the critics know anyway. They're just rude to everyone involved in this superb performance.
I've been listening to these tunes since they were released, play multiple instruments and was heavily involved in production and without a DOUBT, this is one of the best tribute bands I've EVER heard...
They not only absolutely nail the orchestration and arrangements, they capture the uber-hipster vibe of Walter and Donald perfectly!
Well done!!!
Wow, just WoW. That was perfect.
April 17' 2020 still enjoying you guys and girls
Tremendous performance!!!!!!!!

The very best Steely Dan outtake ever. Thank you very very much.
Bravo. The best I’ve ever heard. Absolutely amazing!
Amazing, moving , a great performance.
Loved it. Had to hear it again. As an old drummer loved the "wet slap" tone of Larry Grano's snare.
Excellent horns & winds ! Grumpy and growling - just what the writers wanted !
Lovely saxophone solo!
This is just awesome, FANTASTIC melodies.
Steely Damned Rule.
Well Done, everybody.
This is on Forever Repeat for me.
Man that was excellent
Damn these guys just make me appreciate how good the original group was, light years ahead of their time. These guys are so professionally sound.
You nailed it guys...Fantastic music Steely Dan style.
Literally perfect

My favourite track and when I used to be a chauffeur I drove the band Deacon Blue who took their name from this track. Absolutely awesome track !
Absolutely wonderful!

The best i have ever heard. Please could you come to Belladrum. It would be amazing. Thanks 😊
Really good rendition, great sax soloing!
Juicy horns, lovely tones.
Great version. Well done.
Very nice Hank Easton ! Don't you love it when people think they are instructing you how to play your music ? If they don't like it why are they telling how to sing ? Who needs critics ?
Very nice job! Thanks.
So good, as a life long SD fan. This track is on course. Reminds me of when I heard it 1st time in E. Lancing. MI. Dec 1977
The horn solo! Good God in heaven! Amazing
