Hey Jay and Amber, great songs from Steve Miller band. I really want to suggest 2 more great songs from Steve. Fly Like an Eagle, one of his earliest and Jet Airliner.
You two are FULL of #1 hits lately! This one hit #1 in 1976. Great song, great band!!! LES PAUL himself was Steve's godfather, and he taught Steve how to play. A legend teaching a *future* legend in his youth!!!
Steve Miller grew up in Texas, with essential Southern Blues players being frequent visitors to his house. He moved to San Francisco to create the band and so has both deep blues influences covered in psychedelia for a very unique sound. ✌️
Steve Miller used to live on Mercer Island in Seattle. A good friend of mine used to work at a local guitar shop and Steve would come on in sometimes to buy new strings. This was back in 80's
The song Amber is thinking of is "Take The Money and Run". She's probably heard "Take It On The Run" which is also a great song by R.E.O. Speedwagon and mixing them up. Side note, I met R.E.O. singer Kevin Cronin at a celebrity golf tournament and helped him and Ryan Stiles and a couple others close the bar down. Fun guy.
Yeah, I kinda figured someone already pointed out that Amber was mixing up the two songs! We'll give her the pass as she's just so damn cute! I DO know why she doesn't like Abracadabra as much as some of the others. I feel the same way as that song is good, but it has to be about 20th on my favorites list of Steve Miller songs! It just has such tough competition...
Now for the Steve Miller Band ferocious foursome of this period-Fly Like An Eagle, Jungle Love, Swingtown and Jet Airliner which paves the way for the Abracadabra sound.
Oh yeah! Steve Miller Rocks! I saw them in concert in the mid 90s The Doobie Brothers opened up for them. Wild mountain honey and dance dance dance are great songs too.
I saw the Indianapolis (IN) show on that tour (Steve Miller Band & the Doobie Bros. w/Michael McDonald). Both bands did a "greatest hits" playset... it was clearly a fan-friendly tour. It was a great time!
I LOVE Stevie Guitar Miller! I saw them at the Shoreline Theater in Mountain View, Ca a million years ago and genuinely thought that I had a religious experience!
My suggestion for a fifth song is Fly like an eagle. Listen to the original version though. I feel it has the same vibe as this song as far as making you just float away with the music! Much love in my heart for the robsquad family. PS: the perfect version has the same thumbnail image as this song.
Yes!!! Get the original song... the versions on the greatest hits clip the song. If you can get a version with the full introduction called Space Intro is the best... that was how it was on the original album it was released on. Here is a video with the intro and the full song. th-cam.com/video/q3-PFDt65sY/w-d-xo.html
That "unique & authentic" thing you pick up from some of the classic rock groups is time served playing dives, small clubs & venues. They toured & not in luxury before the big break. You are hearing musicians & singers who already are comfortable with their instruments & stage presence. Makes a huge impact🙂
Interesting story of Steve's ability to control a situation, I saw the Steve Miller band in 1973 (The Joker was his current album) at the U of Penn indoor venue. The security and the crowd up front were getting into what easily could have been violence. Steve stopped the band in mid song, sent the band off stage & told his guitar tech to bring him his acoustic. He sat on a high stool addressed the security saying calm down these are just kids & addressed the crowd to say security were just doing their job & everyone needs to calm down. He proceeded to play a few tunes on the acoustic, finished, then called the band back out & they finished the set. I was impressed, I was a fan from their first album (you should check out the solo work of both Boz Scaggs & Ben Sidran from the early Steve Miller Band), but that cemented my fanhood. Also Rick Roberts by himself was the warm up, he was in Zephry, Flying Burrito Brothers & Firefall. What a concert!
Now THAT is what you call crowd control. Top notch of him to be aware of what was going on and doing what was needed to calm down the situation. I remember the days of "festival" seating. When we saw Zeppelin back in the mid 70s in Houston, the venue was configured for festival seating (NO seats).. for being only 15, I was well aware of problems and deaths that had occurred prior when fans rushed the stage and we were right up front, but it all went off without any problem luckily.. so sad that kids have to lose their lives needlessly. Thanks for that great story!
@@connieb4372 I wasn't even aware till he stopped the band mid song & talked the situation down, we were seated close to the stage but to his right. My eyes were on him. The 70's were a trip, our youth had some killer bands. I'm glad you saw Zeppelin, I saw them in Madison Square Garden and they put on a great show, probably same tour as you. Have a great day!
The band was formed in California but Miller was born in Milwaukee. His parents were close friends with guitar virtuoso Les Paul and his wife Mary Ford. They were best man and matron of honor at the Paul/Ford wedding and Les Paul was Steve’s godfather. They moved to Dallas in 1950 and Mr. Miller, who was a pathologist and recording engineer, had many distinguished musicians come to their house to record. Young Steve absorbed much from "greats" such as T-Bone Walker, Charles Mingus, and Tal Farlow. Walker taught Steve how to play his guitar behind his back and also with his teeth in 1952. His classmate in prep school was Boz Skaggs who Steve taught guitar chords so he could join Miller and his brother Buddy’s band.
Yeah, you just can't go wrong with his greatest hits album. They could just find a playlist of it on TH-cam and start picking songs they haven't heard yet. Every one of them is solid gold.
Steve Miller Band from Dallas! He and Boz Scaggs were contemporaries from Big D. Great party music! You haven't heard Fly Like An Eagle yet. Joy will have a new favorite (fancy that!).
Some other Steve Miller Band, different from this, but worthwhile: "Your Saving Grace", "Kow Kow" and "Seasons". Not to mention "Jet Airliner". Thanks for the reaction.
Kathie says…Thank you both for such a GREAT program!!! I always enjoy listening to the MUSIC IF MY LIFE with you! I am 72 years old and grew up listening to this awesome music…Country…Rock and Roll…R & B…Motown…Big Bands…Doo Wop…all my favorites ❤️ When I Listen with you, (music that I am passionate about and have listened to for years) makes me feel like I am hearing these songs for the very first time. Rob and Amber, you have a GIFT in what you do!! Thank you for sharing it!!🥰God Bless You and Your Precious Little Family 🙏🏻🌷
You'll really enjoy an early hit from the Steve Miller Band, "Livin' in the USA" from 1968. It's got a great bluesy groove to it & a killer harmonica intro. Love your vibes!
Loving all the classic recommendations for Steve Miller. His slower stuff is just as good too! You guys should check out "I Want to Make the World Turn Around," "Winter Time" or "Wild Mountain Honey."
I love the Steve Miller Band! Speaking of songs that have dips I suggest Blinded By the Light by The Manfred Mann Band. I could listen to that one over and over and never get tired of it. Keep on rocking Rob Squad! ❤❤
Steve Miller was born and raised in the Dallas Texas area and attended St Marks School for boys in his first couple of years in High School and while there he and fellow schoolmate Boz Scaggs formed a band then later Steve got the heive ho from St Marks and finished his schooling at DISD Woodrow Wilson High School which has many notables in music go to school there and it’s also the only public High School in the country that has boasted two Heisman Trophy winners.
Ohh, I remember this song! It must be 40 plus years since I heard this (released in 1976). I like it, but I'm with Jay...... "Abaracada" is my favourite, released in 1982. I was 18 years old. 🎼🎸🎤
I have seen Steve Miller Band many, many times in the 70s and into the 80s, in Seattle. The part of this song that goes, "Driving from Phoenix , AZ on my way to Tacoma", always got a loud, thunderous cheer from the Seattle audience. Miller lived in the Seattle area in the mid to late 70s. Last I heard he was living around Medford, OR. I would say he likes living in the Pacific North West. There's a lot of good Steve Miller song suggestions here, and I love them all. However, one of his songs that would get played at parties is a song called, Dance, Dance, Dance, which I highly recommend.
So many great Steve Miller songs for you to check out! “Fly Like An Eagle”(long version a must!), “Swing Town”, “Jungle Love”, “Jet Airliner”.. just to name a few. Great reaction, guys!
Met my Angel, in 94, our first date was Red Rocks Colorado, August 23, the Steve Miller Band !! 5 years later we were married, and we are still Best Friends. She is my life, and inspiration, and still makes my heart skip a beat. 🙏🏻
I agree that "Fly Like an Eagle" and "Jungle Love" should be heard. I like this one, but I like the other two that I mentioned, and "Abracadabra" better. 🙂
Other than "The Joker" everything on the Greatest Hits is off of two albums. Both "Book of Dreams" and "Fly Like an Eagle" are cover to cover, there are songs you will miss when you get the Hits album.
I will say I love his “Nobody but You” from the ‘80s…definitely a catchy tune, and if it had been recorded earlier in the ‘70s would have fit in quite well with the rest of the Greatest Hits album.
"Jungle Love" is my Favorite. "You Treat Me like I was Your Ocean, You swim in my blood when it's warm. My cycles of circular motion, protect You and keep You from harm, We live in a world of illusion, where everything's peaches, and cream, we all face a scarlet conclusion, but we spend our time in a dream" Yeah, it's Your New Favorite Too.😎
Great all time hit band lead by the great Steve Miller The Joker was the first for me then i was hooked ever since through Abracadabra to now great guitar
I love you both! My husband sang this song karaoke one night. He did such an amazing job! I am so glad to watch you react to this. You beautiful babies! You make my day always!
"20th Century Man", "Mercury Blues" are two of my favorites, from Steve. He first came on the scene, as a Blues guitarist. John Lee Hooker's studio album "Endless Boogie" is mainly a jam session, with Blues and Jazz musicians, including Steve Miller, backing him up. Many great tracks, on the album. My favorite, "Doin' the Shout". Nice reviews, J & A ! 😎👍
Thanks for reacting to this one of my requests from so long ago haha. This is one of my favorites from them! I would love to karaoke this. "Jet Airliner" should be next. Jordan, I'm with you, Abracadabra is one of my favorites.
I love the Steve Miller Band but this is absolutely without question and by far 100% my favorite Steve Miller song. It's actually one of my favorite songs in general. The crazy thing is after watching this video, I've been a big Steve Miller fan for many years and had no idea that he sang Sunglasses at night. That's crazy
When I was very young, I loved Abracadabra...I knew the lyrics from the radio and loved when it came on, but was too young yet to appreciate what I was hearing. Loved the reaction, great band and enjoyable song.
Good pod. Stevie "Guitar " Miller is one of the Finest Guitar Players and sweet vocalist who ever graced a stage. His older work showed his musical prowess. His Chicago blues days were filled with just about every blues artists you could name. He did not waste notes and was always clean and smooth. He is a total professional and would never have allowed a crowd crush to injure the people in the audience. His song "Macho City" was the first rap song I ever heard back in 1979. Although the song had a little push back from the powers that be. Thank you for digging on Mr. Miller. Blues without a Blame shows a master at work.
When I was in 7th and 8th grade, the school bus had an 8 track tape player and the bus driver would play one of two tapes: Bob Seger's Stranger in Town, and Steve Miller's Greatest Hits. Rock'n me baby > old time rock'n'roll on loop. Brings me back.
Jungle Love, Jet Airliner, Take the Money and Run, The Stake, Mercury Blues, Swingtown are some more Steve Miller Band tune you would enjoy……..
Throw in the soft “Wild Mountain Honey” and early works “Living in the U.S.A” and “Space Cowboy”
Love Steve miller band try fly like an eagle
ANOTHER All Skate!
Jungle Love > Abracadabra
but please nothing from greatest hits. The songs on that album are censored and chopped.
Hey Jay and Amber, great songs from Steve Miller band. I really want to suggest 2 more great songs from Steve. Fly Like an Eagle, one of his earliest and Jet Airliner.
I’d add Swingtown to that list…👍🏻
Jet airline with the interlude
Good choices!
Exactly what I was going to suggest.
not hardly one of his earliest...sorry
You guys should react to…
Steve Miller Band - Fly Like An Eagle
🎸🤘
Extended version…..
And wild mountain honey!
Ooooh, yes.
You two are FULL of #1 hits lately! This one hit #1 in 1976. Great song, great band!!! LES PAUL himself was Steve's godfather, and he taught Steve how to play. A legend teaching a *future* legend in his youth!!!

YES.
Steve Miller Band is so underrated. So many of their songs are classic that stand the test of time.
Fly Like an Eagle and Jungle Love are big hits of SMB. You need to hit them for some classic Steve Miller!
The "Classic" Steve Miller, is before, he switched to making pop tunes for the musically unwashed, radio audience.
Jay/Amber, their "Jet Airliner" and "Swingtown" are next for you!! Bangers!!
Oh yeah! Steve Miller Rocks! I saw them in concert in the mid 90s The Doobie Brothers opened up for them. Wild mountain honey and dance dance dance are great songs too.
I saw the Indianapolis (IN) show on that tour (Steve Miller Band & the Doobie Bros. w/Michael McDonald). Both bands did a "greatest hits" playset... it was clearly a fan-friendly tour. It was a great time!
Love all the hits that people are suggesting. But, those are two of my absolute favourites from SMB!! Along with True Fine Love and Serenade.
I saw them opening for Grateful Dead.
I LOVE Stevie Guitar Miller! I saw them at the Shoreline Theater in Mountain View, Ca a million years ago and genuinely thought that I had a religious experience!
My suggestion for a fifth song is Fly like an eagle. Listen to the original version though. I feel it has the same vibe as this song as far as making you just float away with the music! Much love in my heart for the robsquad family.

"Fly Like an Eagle" needs to be your next one of theirs. It has a very strong message.
"Fly Like An Eagle" should be next by Steve Miller Band. Per Google they are from San Francisco.
Yes...the full album version....!
That "unique & authentic" thing you pick up from some of the classic rock groups is time served playing dives, small clubs & venues. They toured & not in luxury before the big break. You are hearing musicians & singers who already are comfortable with their instruments & stage presence. Makes a huge impact🙂
Thank you for saying that.........
"Jet Airliner" is my absolute favorite. "Seranade" is short-but-gold.
Jet Airliner is so damn catchy. You've got to do it guys!
I would STRONGLY recommended jet airliner it is a sick vibe!
I hope they do the long version of Jet Airliner
@@Malryth If you mean the long live version, I agree.
I sure do

Steve Miller band goes way back into the 60s. Tons of great songs.
"The Stake" is one of my favorites I think you'd love! Good bluesy rock guitar!
Steve Millers Greatest Hits is a staple in every collection.....front to back they are all amazing !
Steve Miller Band "Fly Like an Eagle" is a must listen!
The band was formed in California but Miller was born in Milwaukee.
His parents were close friends with guitar virtuoso Les Paul and his wife Mary Ford. They were best man and matron of honor at the Paul/Ford wedding and Les Paul was Steve’s godfather.

"Fly Like an Eagle" -- and do not forget the "Space Intro" just before it!
This has always been my favorite Steve Miller song...L❤VE IT!!!
I remember blasting their greatest hits with the window open in high school. Swingtown is a great album opener.
Yeah, you just can't go wrong with his greatest hits album. They could just find a playlist of it on TH-cam and start picking songs they haven't heard yet. Every one of them is solid gold.
This one’s my favorite Steve Miller Band tune. Summer…road trip…laying around by the lake with good friends and a few beers… yeah. This is that song.
"Serenade" is an underrated tune from them
Love Steve Miller Band Love the sound!! You nailed the description perfectly. Love from Philadelphia!!
Wild mountain honey is one of my favorites from Steve Miller
Dance, Dance, Dance - Another good Steve Miller Band song! GREAT harmony and fast paced.
"True Fine Love" and "Dance Dance Dance" are both fun songs of his.
YES!! ❤ TRUE FINE LOVE❣️❣️
I love Dance Dance Dance.
Ah! Another one that I had forgotten about.. I LOVE Dance Dance Dance (all night long). Great suggestion!!
I wanna reach out & grab ya. 🤓 Lol....Steve Miller Band is so cool, laid back I love listening to them. Thank you!
Steve Miller Band from Dallas! He and Boz Scaggs were contemporaries from Big D. Great party music! You haven't heard Fly Like An Eagle yet. Joy will have a new favorite (fancy that!).
Steve is from Texas.
"Jet Airliner" is also similar to the vibe of "Rock'n Me" I think Amber will really like that one.
Fly Like an Eagle, Jet Airliner, Swingtown, Jungle Love, Come On 'n' Dance! It's hard to go wrong with Steve Miller.
Some other Steve Miller Band, different from this, but worthwhile: "Your Saving Grace", "Kow Kow" and "Seasons". Not to mention "Jet Airliner". Thanks for the reaction.
Wife here.., Jammed to these guys all my life..Had the chance to see this band in the 90's.... AMAZING LIVE..!! Love Your Reactions!!
Some suggestions:
Led Zeppelin - “The Ocean
Deep Purple - “Smoke On The Water”
R.E.M. - “Orange Crush”
The Police - “Spirits in the Material World.”

Somebody give me a cheeseburger 🍔!!!! Love that 😋 song!!
Fly Like an Eagle is a BANGER you have to hear. His best song with a fantastic message.
I love your reaction and I love this song.
Steve Miller Band is awesome please go down the rabbit hole with them. Much love and good vibes .🤗🙏❤️
Loving all the classic recommendations for Steve Miller. His slower stuff is just as good too! You guys should check out "I Want to Make the World Turn Around," "Winter Time" or "Wild Mountain Honey."
"Fly Like An Eagle" is the first song I think of when I think of the Steve Miller band. It's a classic.
3/31/22, 9:00 p.m.
I love the Steve Miller Band! Speaking of songs that have dips I suggest Blinded By the Light by The Manfred Mann Band. I could listen to that one over and over and never get tired of it. Keep on rocking Rob Squad! ❤❤

Thx! You might like “Take the money and run!” Great song! Great artist! Great reaction! Please do the Rascals
I believe they reacted to Take the Money and Run.. that is what Amber was referring to when she said Take it On the Run. Have a great day!
My favorite Steve Miller 💙 Wild Mountain Honey 🍯 💛
Ohh, I remember this song! It must be 40 plus years since I heard this (released in 1976). I like it, but I'm with Jay...... "Abaracada" is my favourite, released in 1982. I was 18 years old. 🎼🎸🎤
I didn't realize how many hits they had, all great songs. Keep'n on rock 'n Steve Miller Band.❤
Wild mountain honey is a great song 💕

Fly like an Eagle, Jungle Love, and Swingtown. You’ve just scratched the surface. Hits in three or four decades. And still tours.
The whole 'Fly Like An Eagle' album is great....
Perfect album 👌
Love a bit of The Steve Miller Band every now and then. Great band!!😁😁🇬🇧
Great 3 songs this MONDAY. thanks, so enjoy your reactions. Hip healed couple of months ago, but I still check in nightly with you two.
I can also recommend their song "Wintertime" a beautiful number. 🎶🎶🎶💕💕
That whole album is killer. React to ,Golden earring, radar love, you won't be sorry.
Jay reacted to Golden Earring's Radar Love 10 months ago, before Amber was a regular on the channel.
Steve Miller Band are great. More to discover yet. This is yet another I play when I am doing a gig
🛎TODD RUNDGREN - “Hello It’s Me”
🛎 FOGHAT - “I Just Want To Make Love To You”
Met my Angel, in 94, our first date was Red Rocks Colorado, August 23, the Steve Miller Band !!
5 years later we were married, and we are still Best Friends.
She is my life, and inspiration, and still makes my heart skip a beat. 🙏🏻
I agree that "Fly Like an Eagle" and "Jungle Love" should be heard.
I like this one, but I like the other two that I mentioned, and "Abracadabra" better. 🙂
Fantastic band. Love you all.
This entire greatest hits album amber would love! I loved this album but when it came to there work in the 80’s it just wasn’t the same.

It's been a long time but still every word flowed out of my mouth perfectly.
Guys you need to react to Fly like an Eagle by Steve Miller
"Jungle Love" is my Favorite. "You Treat Me like I was Your Ocean, You swim in my blood when it's warm. My cycles of circular motion, protect You and keep You from harm,
We live in a world of illusion, where everything's peaches, and cream, we all face a scarlet conclusion, but we spend our time in a dream" Yeah, it's Your New Favorite Too.😎
For some great deep cut Steve Miller Band, try "Living In The U.S.A." and "Mercury Blues". Both different, both excellent.
Steve Miller just one of my hundreds of 70s favorites! And Steve's best song EVER! SACRIFICE !! From Book of Dreams! JUST an incredible Record!
All over the radio back in the day- all over it.
My favorite song by Steve.
More 'Sing-Along' music from the 70's! Love it! Oh, and I am singing along here, Gang! :)
Oh heck yeah baby love this band always will
"In The Wintertime" is a favorite too.
Have a great day!
Great all time hit band lead by the great Steve Miller The Joker was the first for me then i was hooked ever since through Abracadabra to now great guitar
I love you both! My husband sang this song karaoke one night. He did such an amazing job! I am so glad to watch you react to this. You beautiful babies! You make my day always!
I'm surprised it took this long for this fantastic duo to do this one. This and Swingtown are my favorite Steve Miller songs. Excellent choice 👌.
My fav outta loads of great tracks this guy did … just pure rock n roll , no excuses , no BS…. Love it and ty for reacting 👍🏴
"20th Century Man", "Mercury Blues" are two of my favorites, from Steve. He first came on the scene, as a Blues guitarist. John Lee Hooker's studio album "Endless Boogie" is mainly a jam session, with Blues and Jazz musicians, including Steve Miller, backing him up. Many great tracks, on the album. My favorite, "Doin' the Shout". Nice reviews, J & A ! 😎👍
Steve is from Dallas. Went to high school with Boz Scaggs (Lido Shuffle.)
Steve Miller band is one of my top 5 all time favorite road trip bands to listen to. 👍😎🤘
Thanks for reacting to this one of my requests from so long ago haha. This is one of my favorites from them! I would love to karaoke this. "Jet Airliner" should be next. Jordan, I'm with you, Abracadabra is one of my favorites.
I love the Steve Miller Band but this is absolutely without question and by far 100% my favorite Steve Miller song. It's actually one of my favorite songs in general. The crazy thing is after watching this video, I've been a big Steve Miller fan for many years and had no idea that he sang Sunglasses at night. That's crazy
Heard this song on the radio for first time in years and wasn't disappointed to see you reacted to it. 😊
I'd say this song is the one that got a ton of radio play and got the band noticed. They were a major band after this.
Jungle Love, Fly Like An Eagle, Jet Airliner, Take the Money.... all great songs.
They are so good at making hits.
Steve Miller is from the Dallas, Tx area.
Thank for you your Steve Miller Band reaction.
When I was very young, I loved Abracadabra...I knew the lyrics from the radio and loved when it came on, but was too young yet to appreciate what I was hearing. Loved the reaction, great band and enjoyable song.
Saw Steve Miller around 1977, great show

He is a total professional and would never have allowed a crowd crush to injure the people in the audience. His song "Macho City" was the first rap song I ever heard back in 1979. Although the song had a little push back from the powers that be. Thank you for digging on Mr. Miller. Blues without a Blame shows a master at work.
Yes! Steve born in Milwaukee - we love him!
Steve Miller is from Dallas. He has a history with Boz Scaggs as well. I can't recall if you have reacted to him yet; Lido Shuffle comes to mind.
When I was in 7th and 8th grade, the school bus had an 8 track tape player and the bus driver would play one of two tapes: Bob Seger's Stranger in Town, and Steve Miller's Greatest Hits. Rock'n me baby > old time rock'n'roll on loop. Brings me back.
