"Deacon Blues" is a must!!!!!!!! Really anything or all of the "Aja" album.
Yes!!! Love that album.
Deacon Blues is one of my favorites
@@nbeutler1134 Yes! Roll. Tide!
"Die behind the wheel"...
Stfu and just let her enjoy this song. All of Steely Dans stuff is excellent.
"Peg" by Steely Dan is a must-hear! I can listen to that one on repeat until my ears bleed.
Jan CW yeah I think that’s my favorite tune by them and you’re right, it’s definitely a “must hear”.
Unofficially dedicated to Peg Enwhistle, a 1920s actress who jumped to her death from the Hollywood sign
It's your favorite foreign movie!
SD, always the consummate professionals.
Oh hell yeah!
You'd be hard pressed to find a BAD Steely Dan song. These guys are masters of the groove!!
Discernment I’m a huge fan, having said that, there are a few stinkers
the shurthang there is only one stinker and thats pearl of the quarter and it’s not even that bad.
Touche'
Pearl of the quarter is a great song. The whole countdown to ecstacy rates high up there with Aja and the Royal Scam!!!!
Not BAD, but not every song is amazing on the Royal Scam album.
Quervo Gold, the fine Columbian. I remember how good that weed was. Thanks for the memories.
yep
Agreed
I thought he meant cocaine, babe~ Columbian?
@@allisonyoung4007 Columbian Gold, Panama Red, Humbolt High, Jamacian Tie Sticks. Depended upon where it came from.
👍😉
They had some of the best musicians. They were perfectionists. Deacon Blues and Cousin Dupree come to mind and AJA was a masterpiece.. They never could put them in a music category.
Very true. They were the 'wrecking crew' of the 70s. Fortunately in the 1970s 'fusion' was a fresh music category and that meant the radio industry could understand where the Steely Dan were coming from. So they got the air time they deserved.
IMHO Deacon Blues is their best.
Steely Dan is a genre unto themselves.
This song is great. I was 19 when this came out and still have my original album.
I was in my early 20s . Lucky you !
I was in my late 20s and dating a 20 year old. Amazing how many cultural references etc. are missed with a decade of difference in ages.
You can't go wrong with Steely Dan, they were music perfectionists. My favorite is 'Reeling in the Years.'
Yog-Sothoth - Best guitar intro ever. Use as my ringtone.
@@a.marvincausey5352 I use it as my ringtone too!😍
You should try Do it Again by Steely Dan that is one great song but they had done a lot of good music, Peg, My old School, Reelin in the years are all great songs by Steely Dan.
Don't Take Me Alive.
My favorite!
The Fez ;-)
Do It Again, Rikki Don't Lose That Number...........
She had heard them all, such a new YT boring hype. At the 1st note she was allready in the vibe. Normally it’s only after the 2nd listening. Trust me, they practice
Ooo, love me some Steely Dan. Peg, Deacon Blue, Reelin in the Years, so much smooth.
"Deacon Blues" is my all time favorite Steely Dan tune. A must for any blues rock fans.
"The Cuervo Gold and fine Columbian, make tonight a wonderful thing" oh yes.....I seem to recall...😁
"I was a dandy of gamma chi" - that's slang for drug dealer (the RX symbol). The things you learn from the smoothest group of the 70's !
Really? Being a Brit, we don't have those Greek letter gangs at Uni, but I never knew it was code for "drurgs!" The more you know, right? 😎
@@cryptotharg7400 That's right. For years I thought Donald Fagen was talking about a college fraternity before I found out he was cryptically telling the listener he was dealing, probably pot. I live in Vegas and I've seen him around town. The first time I saw him I prostrated at his feet with a Wayne's World "I am not worthy" kind of compliment. He was extremely gracious and said he was glad anyone was still listening to music he wrote over 40 years ago. A true musical genius who, to me, represents everything that's cool about the American
I love to jam to Steely Dan when I'm on the road especially at night.
My favorite Band, big when i graduated high school! I see them in concert every other year!!!! Black Cow and Josie are awesome! Good Times baby!!!!!!
Best music ever!!!!!
I could have written your post, except for the fact that I haven't seen them in concert. Exactly what I might have said. How were they in concert? They were such an amazing studio band.
I saw them in their final tour before Walter Becker died. That was 2016.
Steely Dan MUST REACTS:
Deacon Blues
Peg
Reelin' In The Years
Kid Charlamagne
My Old School
Black Friday
Home At Last
Dirty Work
Rikki Don't Lose That Number
Black Cow
Bodhisattva
Josie
luisalonsoecheverria you forgot Aja.....lol
Don't Take Me Alive
Babylon Sisters
FM
Aja
Bad Sneakers
I second
Dirty Work and even more so Bodhisattva. The Countdown to Ecstasy album is way too overlooked for my liking. Full of raw jams. Peace.
Night by Night... track 2 on pretzel logic, the most underrated Dan song out there
Kyle Michael Countdown to Ecstasy is their best album imo
When I was a teen this was my go to music when it was time to do my chores. After a trip behind the barn to do a few one hitters!
"It's hard times befallen the soul survivors," but here we are... 2020. Enjoyed your reaction!
Fun Fact: "Steely Dan" was slang for a female pleasure device (to put it politely) and that was what the band was named after.
I learned something new today!
TMI lol
From the William Burroughs novel Naked Lunch.
I'm glad someone else brought this up, because I was going to.
Gee, that was my nickname in high school...
I'm 54. Steely Dan has been my favorite band since 1977 my kids grew up listening to "the Dan" among others and their eclectic musical tastes reflect it. Your enjoyment of this incredible band earned you a sub!
The coolest contemporary jazz band ever..brings tears to my eyes as we are old dogs now...
I'm such a Steely Dan fan.........so glad you found them!!!!........btw...I turned 19 in 1980
Rock on, fellow Babylon Sister! Me TOO! Got the whole catalog!✌
This song is historic. This is the 1st song ever to use a drum machine playing samples of real drums. In 1980, this is about 5 years ahead of state of the art.
The band gave the recording engineer $75,000 to build a device to play drum samples. They had previously tried several drummers but nobody could play as robotic as they wanted.
Thanks man that info is cool as hell. I remember hearing a story about SD doing something with a drum sample back then but had no idea it was a drum machine nor that it was on this song. Always thought it wS Bernard or Steve or Porcaro playing it so smooth.
Steely dan- Reeling in the years !!!!
Hey 19 is 60 now! Where did the years go?
Clyde Barrow
I wish you would tell me. With a snap of the finger, they’re gone.
I just thank my lucky stars for the music we grew up with.
These reactors are hearing some of it but,
dang, there’s no way they could feel it like we did and still do.
No instant access to look up the lyrics.
We always focused more on the music than the lyrics.
We truly experienced a special time in music history.
Clyde, is Bonnie there with you?
I graduated from high school in 1996 and I'm 42 now
Clyde Barrow - Are you living in 2040?
I was in my 20s when it came out. I'm old enough in my 60s. Don't take 20 years from me.
@@a.marvincausey5352 Obviously math isn't your strong point. The song was recorded in 1980. The 19yr old he was singing about would have been born in 1961, making them 59ys old in 2020. My bad.
"Dirty Work" is my favorite song of theirs .
Great song, but there are so many!
its funny cause Fagen doesnt even sing that song!!!
Such an underrated track
I agree! It’s also one of my favorites. That entire album is phenomenal.
The greatest band ever. Please do another of there's. It's hard to pick one to suggest. I'll go with Deacon Blues.
Such a a DOPE song. Loved it since hearing it as a kid in the 80s
According to one reviewer's interpretation, the song "was about a middle-aged man's disappointment with a young lover: Hey Nineteen, that's 'Retha Franklin. She don't remember the Queen of Soul. It's hard times befallen the Soul Survivors. She thinks I'm crazy but I'm just growing old.
What else would it be about? It’s pretty obvious, no?
@@crusheverything4449 yes your right :) i some times have to listen to songs a few times to try to understand what it means .
You forgot about the resolution to the song. He gets her drunk and high and has sex with her..
"The Cuervo Gold, the fine Columbian, make tonight a wonderful thing"
@@LordShockadelic I think it's just as much him having to get drunk and high to get past his feeling of not being able to relate to this young woman, and just enjoy
@@dwc1964 Possibly. But knowing how twisted the Dan can be...
I was 19 when this came out. I remember saying, I know who Aretha Franklin is! Hahahaha
Love the intro to "Do it again" especially extended version.
taking out the old AM radio in my 73 old's, 1980ish, installed my kenwood system and this is the first song that plays from 96 rock out of Atlanta.
The kings of smooth, and those "major mu" chords changed my guitar playing forever
Damn ....forgot” Babylon Sisters”..... well their entire catalog in fact
Amen!!! Babylon Sisters --absolutely
Jazz fans tend to love Steely Dan, but so do rock and r&b fans. They're a real unique treasure.
I LOVE Steely Dan!! Plan to see the concert this summer in Toronto!!
The genius of Steely Dan lyrics was a big appeal in the days of "mind expansion" instead of compression.
Finally someone reacts to Steely Dan....been waiting for this for a long time, you must dive further into their music, you will find yourself getting lost and enjoying every moment of it.
Steely Dan, absolutely a great band.
Steely Dan! Smooth vocals, jazzy chromatic harmonies, bass and lead guitar licks that won’t quit. Keys on bump, and layers and layers of perfect overlapping background vocals. I’ve been listening.to Steely Dan since I was a college freshman, 1976, or that’s when I knew who they were. I was a music student in college, and this music just blew me away right out of my classical music training!
Hey young lady , you listen to Steely Dan then nothing else sounds the same , here your witnessing some of the best musicians that have ever walked this planet . Top top top musicians . Great to see a young lady like yourself keeping the Steely Dan flag flying
Congratulations in advance for 100k; It won't be long. Steely Dan is definitely one of my favorite bands. Good reaction 😊
Yaaaaaassss. Any song from their Aja album is react-worthy. 💕
Thanks Monique, for introducing me to Becker & Fagen way back when in the 70’s
My Favorites by Steely Dan are FM (No static at all), Reelin' in the years, and Do it again.
Steely Dan, are amazing artists. Jazz/rock fusion, they are so unique. 😎✌️
Steely Dan is my favorite band. Jazz, rock. They never disappoint. Not a single bad song. The melodies are great, the lyrics are great, the musicians are great. You just cannot go wrong with The Dan for adult music. Smooth as glass. Fine as wine, etc. etc. Oh, yeah!
Steely Dan makes me so-o happy. They are SUMMER!
Now, about how they decided on the name Steely Dan...Lol
It was named after a dildo in William Burrough's book Naked Lunch.
Surprisingly came across this on my 19th birthday a year ago; oh how I now miss my teenage years!
ANYTHING by The “Dan” is sooooooooo smooth!!!!!!💖
This song has such a memory for me. I went out to eat in a nice Mexican restaurant with my mother in April of 1981. She basically asked me, "So, what are you doing after high school? What are you going to do with your life?" Serious stuff. This song was playing in the background that afternoon. Sadly, that restaurant really went downhill in the years to follow. But I've always had this memory.
Steely Dan was (technically) just two guys. They would seek out and hire the best studio musicians they could find for each song -- using one drummer on one track, another for the next for example. They would listen to different musicians play for each song and choose which one they thought was best. It's why the instrumentation quality is so amazing.
XXXACTLY RIGHT
Nobody can be in a bad mood listening to this song 😊😊
Near and dear to their music! Excellent ride to tour thru their songs! Thanks , love your show ( charmed)!
Great to see you doing Steely Dan. This particular track is slightly less well known to my mind. You will love “ Do It Again”, “Rikki Dont Lose That Number” , “Reelin in the Years” and others by them. 😀
One of the great songs from this fantastic duo. Story of frustration between an old guy and young chick. Listen to more of them.
I see Steely Dan.. I click. Because... STEELY DAN!! 🙌🙌🙌
Haven't heard this song forever, thank you.
Glad you liked this one by Steely Dan, India. They are always interesting to listen to, the variations of melodies and harmonies, a bit of unexpected bits, so creative. Please do more of theirs. I like the instrumentation of Bodhisattva and Peg, but any of those mentioned here are worth a listen!
India, they made so many incredible albums, you mustn't stop here,please explore their whole catalog,you will be pleasantly surprised
I’ve loved Steely Dan for decades!
If you like this, you should listen to more SD. I think you’ll be happy you did.
One of my fave smooth songs on the radio to calm a stressful day. :)
I turned 19 when this was popular, so it really spoke to me. The guy saying, "nice..skate a little lower..." was the kind of stuff I heard all the time. It really was part of being 19 and having older men checking me out at clubs. So that's kind of a creepy/funny part of the song. That was how it was back then.
For the record, I knew who Aretha Franklin was, long before that. Sheesh.
Thank goodness the music and execution were so awesome. It made me not hate the song, because I would have felt awful hating any Steely Dan song.
I’m old now but I still love all their songs sounds as good today as back in the day.
Skating to this song was so much fun! Memories!
You should also react to their older songs, the albums "Countdown to Ecstasy" and "Pretzel Logic" are absolute gems.
India was stumbling a bit when she came to mention 'Ricky Don't Lose That Number' from Pretzel Logic, probably their first really big hit. maybe as good a place to react to next as any?
@@francispower1418 definitely!! Also "Dirty Work", or "Reeling in the Years", from their first album Can't Buy a Thrill, which is just as beautiful as the two I mentioned before. Steely Dan are just an endless source. I started listening to their music only recently and they're already among my all time favourites.
@@gaetanocascio2420 I first heard 'Can't Buy a Thrill' about forty five years ago and I remember the night very well because I played 'Brooklyn Owes the Charmer Under Me' nineteen times in succession. My poor neighbors! Just writing that has brought smile to my face because it reminds me that at the time I had very little idea about what or where Brooklyn was (I was actually in Stroud, Gloustershire, England that night) and all these years later, at this very moment as I type, I am looking out over Brooklyn Bridge (don't ask me to count the lightbulbs).
@@francispower1418 wait, you didn't have your airpods on..? Jokes aside, it's fascinating to hear from someone who was a fan when I wasn't even born yet.
@@gaetanocascio2420 AirPods? In those days we all had the most awful headphones but really, really good separate component hi fi with the most amazing speakers. I'm sorry to have to tell you this but AirPods and MP3s sound lousy by comparison! Anyway both Donald Fagan and myself are grouchy old men these days. In fact I was in Sam Ash on 47th St buying guitar strings a few years ago and waiting in a quite long queue for the check out when this somewhat disheveled old man at the back of the line shouted to the cashier (or anybody else who might be listening) "Do you have a metronome"? "Yes sir" came the reply. "Is it loud"? Again "Yes Sir". "What kind of batteries does it take". We all knew it was Donald Fagan so nobody minded! But so typical for a man of that age. Deaf as a post and needing to find products that take something that can readily be recognized as an actual battery! Bless him. I read an interview some years ago in which he claimed he mostly uses Garage Band for writing. Not Logic but Garage Band. Apparently he's a serious cook too. I can easily see that. Only use the best ingredients, put them together in a harmonious manner and don't let anything get in the way of anything else. Not difficult to do if you know how. Donny does!
Love Steely Dan. Popular during college.
I like my music raw and loud. And i just love Steely dan, my guilty pleasure
Just sayin'.... Heard "Mommy" again. Your Young one loves you! That's as awesome as the reaction in my opinion. ( Another great one, by the way! ♥️)
Love Steely Dan, Peg, Reelin in The Years, Deacon Blues, Do It Again, Dirty Work...on and on...special sounds.
Seen em twice. Never seen any tighter band. Simply awesome performers no matter the often revolving lineup. Some wicked talent has passed thru Steely Dan but each time there's a need they draw aces from the deck.
One of the best bands ever been listening to him for over 35+ years, Western World, Caves of Altimira, Don't Take me Alive, Riki Don't Lose That Number, My Old School, Babylon Sisters, and so many more do yourself a favor and get his greatest hits CD, I am sure you can order it through Amazon. Dude is still Bad-Ass.
This song reminds me of when I was child at home with my mom on weekends and she would play this on the only radio station that put SD on rotation.
Only later did I realize what he was singing about.
Still a great song...
Steely Dan is like Pink Floyd... a unique experience, unlike any other... & such great production quality.
Anything by Steely Dan... honestly don't think they've ever made a bad song. Masters.
LOVE this song!!!
God bless the band. Some of the best music ever. So glad I got to see them on their very last US tour.
Nice reaction to this classic song. Most of Steely Dan songs have a nice groove and vibe.
Age is more than "just a number". Age ages you.
The two most technically gifted musicians ever. RIP Mr Becker 🙏
Great all around sound, makes you want to just have fun and 19 ain't bad age to a dream when your that age ... dance is your ... Kido with touch ofsoul with a taste of jazz mix ... great sound. Alway, Loved ..SteelyDan music.
Great song,,,, glad you like it,,👍👍👍
Loved how your kids said "mommy" right at the end.....
Yes smooth it is down to earth.
"Home at last" is my fav, great lyrics and a kickin groove, glad you enjoyed the Dan, India!
40 years old this year! Unbelievable!
India, you clearly picked up on how well executed the music was with the Steely Dan. 'Gaucho' was their last studio album until they recorded their two works of this millennium (both deservedly Grammy winners). For some Steely Dan purists (including this one) there is a slight difficulty with 'Gaucho' on account of the amount of cocaine that was being consumed by those associated with the recording at the time (and which inevitably found its way rather too profoundly into the music, which is perfect but perhaps a little soulless and numb compared with most of their earlier and later work).
Also if you like the vibe of 'Gaucho' (which all sounds a bit like 'Hey Nineteen') you will probably really enjoy Donald Fegan's solo album 'Night Fly' which he released a few years later. I would further commend you to his last solo album from 2006 'Morph The Cat' and in particular to the song 'What I do', his homage to Ray Charles (track 3). Despite having been made in 2006 this record was all recorded on 2" tape and through an analog mixing desk. They knew what they were doing. The sound is rich and creamy. I especially like the line from the lyric that goes "you bring a lot of church but you leave no doubt as to what kind of love you're shouting about". Check it out!
Been a Steely Dan fan for a LONG time!
One of the best songs to dance to on roller skates at the roller rink in the early 80s. "Peg" next, please!
I went from Motown, to little bit of Beatles, my brother-in-law was a jazz drummer... so I fused directly into the Jazz/Rock Fusion bands... Steely Dan, Blood Sweat & Tears, Chicago... absolutely love Pat Metheny!!!!! 👍🏻😘👍🏻
Steely is the Move!!!! always have been
You know. I just love ya, I think your great. Thanks for having an open mind to these great songs 🎵 ❤
R.I.P. Walter. The music school flunky struck gold when he met Donald. This music is immortal.
You can't ever go wrong with Steely Dan.
India, I love how you appreciate all types of music! I was raised by a hippie mom who loved everything from folk music like Linda Rondstat to Black Sabbath!! Neil Young to Led Zepplin!!! But STEELY DAN was a HUGE part of my life growing up. I still blast all their classics but now MY kids roll their eyes and make fun of me LOL
I like how open your mind is to different kinds of music.
Almost anything by Steely Dan, my favorite American band.
Steely Dan is musical Royalty. Enjoy!
This reminds me of my mother getting ready to go to the disco. Thank you for your appreciation and the memories.
