Anyone else listening at 3:00 AM just to escape the chaos in the world? I’m 72 and have loved SD since I was 20. Saw them once before Walter passed away . They were so good I couldn’t believe how great they sounded. If you have anxiety this music is better than anything to soothe your soul and mind. ❤ Thank you Steely Dan for all the music over my lifetime. You’re a once in a lifetime band. ❤
Bless you donna...im listening to them on expensive youtube!! So saw your post. I love them too. They are a madterclass. Unlike rap as in crap. Hello from n.ireland all you mad steely fans. We were lucky.
@@davidthomas597 They’re definitely some of the best musicians/writers I’ve ever heard. When it’s cold & snowing out I love to sit by the fire and listen to SD. Their music helps to melt away some of the sadness in this world today.
i found this album in my Dads collection as a kid. All my friends thought I was weird cause instead of 50 Cent, I was blastin Aja at stoplights (2005). No regrets. None at all.
My favourite band of all time, I'm 70 now and are stil trying to work out all the intricacies of the guitar in the songs, thank God for the wonders of you tube.
I remember when this album was first released back in 1977 and today I still think it is an absolute masterpiece. The composition was way ahead of its time back in 1977 and it will remain as one of the best of all time.
I think this is the greatest album of all time. It’s perfect from the first track to the last. So many amazing artist performed on this. They were years ahead of their time.
Dear God! The emotions flow. Summer 1978, it's going to be my junior year of high school and I'm sitting by myself on the deck of my parents sailboat on a 2 week excursion around the Channel Islands off California. My folks tendered to another anchored boat for cocktail hour and I have this tape, Royal Scam, and some Jimi Hendix 'Electric Ladyland' and a small bag of crummy pot. Lost in my thoughts of a new girl back home, watching seals play around the boat. This video, quite literally, just took me back to that moment and what it felt like. A feeling I haven't experienced since and I'm now 61 fucking years old. Where did the time go?
It was all Wine, Women, and Song.......the Rest of the Time you just Wasted!😉 I just turned 60......the WTF just happened for me too! For a little gleam of hope, check out Leonid and Friends, covering, " My Old School".....they are Russian, but they are World Class.....and do mostly Chicago Material. It's GREAT to see and hear REAL Singers, Drums, Horns, and arrangement.......it can still happen!
Steely Dan was an intellectual tour de force and made some of the best music ever made. Rip walter. I got to see them live. We sat on the second row. Donald’s teeth were on full display. It sounds like a broken record , but the music made these days is so horrible. It’s good to go back and remember what good is.
We were so lucky and didn't know it. Some songs were so great in my old car radio I had to pull over to take a better listen. Never will there be such music. Saw them once in Nashville at a college and the crowd was demonstrating about something stupid would have ruined the show, but the music was too good. I was about 20 then. almost 70 now. Still love to listen to the group.
I’m 88 Y/O, played polkas and semi-classical music on my accordion; followed pop and jazz music since 1940 and on through folk and rock. So happy that Steely Dan has occurred! Sweet sounds and wonderful, thoughtful and music with consummate musicians is mesmerizing!!
We call this our Desert Island album. If you stranded on a desert island and could take only ten albums with you. This is definitely one of them. The album cut with Steve Gadd on drums is the best. It never gets old.
Pffffff, wow. When the Aja album first came out, I went nuts. It blasted constantly, every day. (My belated apologies to my neighbors). And then I sat down at my piano and began to work it all out. Aja is pure genius and this song is an example. It doesn't get any better than this.
Steve Gadd was never given props on their personal recollection in the making of this song his drumming captured the essence of this song and of course the musicality of all the members along with the back up singers 7:51
when I was in High School, I always wanted to play in a band with this much coolness and complexity. I wanted to play SD, maybe some Little Feat on the side; we ended up playing the Police, the rolling stones, AC/DC, etc. in a band, you can usually get outvoted if you had too much taste and wanted to play something off the beaten track.
That's so true. 64 here and new to the music of SD. It's really getting me through the recent losses of a few of my closest people. Music really is, or was, an amazing balm. Can't say that about much of the newer stuff.
Steely Dan was one of if not best studio groups, insane musicians and singers floated in and out of the band, the production is incredible in its complexity and nuances, and then the songwriting is absolutely off the charts
Oh by perfection was the thing each player piece part or which ever you may call it Becker n Fagen made this they are the Dan that Folic piece of Steele , hey that’s their
I bought this album in 1978 and taped it on a cassette. During the summer of 1978, every night I would pop the cassette in the stereo, turn the volume down real low, hop into bed and fall asleep listening to this great music. Even today, when I get a new stereo, speakers, iPod, iPad, computer, etc, the first piece of music I listen to is this album!
Finally got to see them a few years ago, but after the guitarist passed away. This is one of those recordings that will never die or be duplicated. They were amazing songwriters and musicians. I listen to this album often. I'm 72.
74 yr. Old fan, had a few of their albums, really enjoyed the creative jazz fusion prog styles, such a welcome change from all my rock albums for those evenings when you just wanna kick back and forget about the workday hustle. Still listening in 2024!
Steely Dan is like Pink Floyd in a way that both bands are very deep and are able to create a feeling that can't be explained, but you come back to them. Steely Dan combine complex harmony with a pop sensibility. If I ever got a chance to audition for them I would politely decline for the simple fact I would not want to waste their time,and I don't suck by a long shot! Lol
@@djstyron From what I hear he is a very 'unique ' man. Has a clear vision and no people skills. Genius musician,but a pain to work with,although to be fair I was not at the sessions,so I'm getting only 50% of the story.
Been listening to SD for over 50 years and never tire of their music. Ever. That, to me, says it all. I’ll be listening to them till i drop down dead. And if there is life after death so much the better 😊
This is musical talent at its finest… Totally Professionals.. musicians or so they call themselves today can’t come close to the level of talent as seen here…
I’ve been a Dan fan since their first album, and unlike a lot of my earlier enthusiasms their music has never palled, it truly is timeless. They always had such great musicians playing with them, and no matter how many times I play any of their tracks they never tire. Bless their little cotton socks!
AJA was by far the most cultivated jazz oriented popular music of it's time. Of course Joni Mitchell with Tom Scott and his LA Express backing her material on "Court And Spark" were traveling a parallel path with Steely Dan. Aja and Court came out pretty much at the same time and really upped the ante for sophistication and class in the FM format.
Steele Dan, among all the other great artists that gave us so much good vibes and music, are all getting farther in the rear view mirror of time. We are all getting closer to sky father, and will never forget how much we love to listen to these icons. My sky father bless all of these great men and women of all our greatest bands.
The drumming at the end always reminds me, at the end of a fireworks show, when they send everything they got into the sky. Gadd first laid it down, but this guy drumming is no slouch.
They were probably the best studio group ever. A couple a player song writers running an agency for free lance artists, at least back then. These days their a hell of a live band to. Love them then & love them now.
This track is Epically Haunting, and Beautiful. I say "FORGET " your friends. 50¢ sucks I was listening to d-block°, And still jamming to Mr Donald Fagen & his Awesome band Steely Dan !!!👌
Senior In high school. My friend had this cassette tape in his truck. I heard it and I was hooked. Bought Aja the next day at the record store. Been a Steely Dan fan since then. (1978)
@@kathycuster1714 agreed… back when musical artists could actually play a musical instrument. Not a computer key board. As Joe Walsh said a analog person living in a digital world.
I grew up listening to Steely Dan and I Love this music as much as I did when I 1st heard it❣️ Maybe even more because this music is timeless..✌🏼✌🏼💙💜😎🎧
The drum part itself is not complicated,but what is impossible to do is duplicate the feel! The transitions between time signatures is velvet smooth! No tension!
Just trying to follow the musical train brings on a wonderful mental exhaustion. Sometimes ya just simply have to give in and listen and not think......
It's almost midnight and i get these feeling about my past god and bad , then i half to listing to Aja taking me to that world of Fagans and Beckers unique lyrics. Then the intense druming with larry gracefully picking his guitar, but that session with the drums and sax just ellavates me kind of euphoric mood. In the mid 70s i was little tired of cute rock seen and i need somemore of a modern jazz touch with some provactve druming and inteligent songwriting, God gave us Steely Dan and tooks us down a rabit hole were two musicians introduce us to a whole new genre of other master musicians that elevated rock and jazz. Well i slumbering to opening lyrics to Aja good night.
Brilliant song from one of the greatest rock albums ever. Especially impressive is the masterful drumming (Steve Gadd?) The mark of a true classic is that it is still fresh over 40 years on.
Yep been a fan better part of 50 years and Every Song a gem. This one is diamond perfection and brothers and sisters I’ve been there and loved every minute. Hope there is a heaven and SD is the top bill with the Beatles and Ramones. Peace
When I die, I'm heading straight to the Roman Coliseum to watch Pink Floyd perform their "Pompeii" concert. So when you see that on DVD, know that my ghost is sitting there on one of the rocks the whole time.
C’est américain et c’est parfait comme tout ce que font les américains en matière de musique Fagen et Becker j’adore Repose en paix Becker et longue vie à Fagen
This intro is tough to top… Hooked up with Natalie MacMaster and her band after a Philly show they did 20 years ago… in their bus, the jokin’ around’n carousing stopped when a video this came on the big TV they had. All were transfixed, me included.
If Tom-Kat puts it down, it is great!
Ah bon?

Amazing music and great Musicians
I remember it well. This album busted the price barrier. They charged a dollar more for it.
The band your band listened to.
I first heard them in 1978. I just fell in love with them. I am 72 and proud to be diehard fan of them. Take a bow “ Becker & Fagen”. Walter RIP.
"Aja" is brilliantly constructed. Steely Dan has always been musicians' music.
I'm 73 now, this music will never get old, what's old is new 😊
THESE are musicians, kids.

this album was a masterpiece no doubt.
was and is 👍😎
And didn't even get a Grammy nomination!
My parents had this album and I'm 48,Love this group.They had RnB,Jazz,And rock n Roll
Any SD is a gold...earing...😎✔️👆
Still is.

Truly,....Fagan & Co. is some of the most incredible music/songwriting/musicianship in popular music EVER! Hola from Bushwick, Brooklyn, NYC..y'all!
Just turned 65 and this music is a salve for the soul. Life has been a sad family history but this music makes it much better.

A symphony in sound, all around. The magic is your anticipation of what comes next and it always fits in it's own tapestry of sway.
Are familiar with Thievery corporation?
Oh by perfection was the thing each player piece part or which ever you may call it Becker n Fagen made this they are the Dan that Folic piece of Steele , hey that’s their
This album should be in the national hall of
Arts. If there is one
Listening to "Aja" while deployed (US Navy) in the eighties got me through some rough nights. Thank you Steely Dan!
I will never grow tired of this amazing music.

Magnificent Masterpiece from Master Musicians, top of the line solid gold standard of excellence
By far one of the best songs ever performed by these guys bar none and they have a great many to choose from .
I'm from Liverpool and a massive massive beatles fan "BUT " that was until I heard Steely Dan ! Blew my mind
If you like Beatles, you will like this one: ruclips.net/video/1yiejXWPwUw/видео.html
My two favorite bands!
Now that my kids are older, I plugged in my old Lenco L75 and put the AJA LP on.
It was magical to hear it on an LP again.
So many nice yet indescribable moods, thoughts and emotions expressed in Aja. I love Steely Dan's music.

Electric guitar playing is spectacular.
Honestly I thought the same thing after listening to Aja for the first time in years, a journey, a story, and music to assist your mental flight......
Plus Donald Fagan is supposedly a perfectionist..which def shows

Great comparison and comment. I am a Brit prog guy ! But love these cats and the Doobs haha
Been listening to SD for over 50 years and never tire of their music. Ever.
That, to me, says it all.
I’ll be listening to them till i drop down dead. And if there is life after death so much the better 😊
You are not by chance from New Ellenton?
And this here ladies and gents is how you play music
Incredibly talented musicians
The best song... to dream! 🎸
This by far my favorite piece of theirs. The multi layers, jazz rock fusion, and voices. Almost hypnotic.
This is musical talent at its finest… Totally Professionals.. musicians or so they call themselves today can’t come close to the level of talent as seen here…

“Chinese music from the banyan tree”. This song is a masterpiece and the musicianship is remarkable. I never tire of it.
Just a gem of a song..music to my ears❤
This is one of the best albums you could ever listen too!
I’m seventeen again. Driving my old hot rod Nova. Cruising... good ole days
Nova’s was so popular back in the days!!
Steely Dan literally helped me though my life! Absolutely blessed to be around with them. Growing older, still listening and still enjoying them.
AJA was by far the most cultivated jazz oriented popular music of it's time. Of course Joni Mitchell with Tom Scott and his LA Express backing her material on "Court And Spark" were traveling a parallel path with Steely Dan. Aja and Court came out pretty much at the same time and really upped the ante for sophistication and class in the FM format.
You are so correct...then the evolution, for Steely Dan it was Guacho and for Joni Mitchell Hejira. Those were the days.
What about Jack p Weather report and so on
Jaco P
Court and Spark released January 17, 1974.
Aja release date was September 23, 1977.
Wasn't it a great time to be alive??? My favorite era and I came up with the birth of rock and roll.
The sax and drums dancing together..
Wow
My ALL TIME Favorite LOUD song! Must have decent equipment to thoroughly enjoy nuance and take in all the crescendos.
Absolutely
Steele Dan, among all the other great artists that gave us so much good vibes and music, are all getting farther in the rear view mirror of time. We are all getting closer to sky father, and will never forget how much we love to listen to these icons. My sky father bless all of these great men and women of all our greatest bands.
One of The Greatest Albums of All Time !!!!!
Yes. I definitely agree!!
Through their unique perspective and composition , Steely Dan introduced the world to jazz, but many didn’t know it at the time….😁
MASTER MUSICIANS, very beautiful piece of music
Wow! Not too many bands could measure up to that. Amazing!
This song never gets old! The best!
Session musicians at the top of there game
What an incredibly talented band with great songs
Neoexpectef you to huryme again
My favorite all time group understimated. AM 64 I listen to all their music they brought together Jazz and rock like no one else COULD 👏👏👏
These CATS ARE REAL DEAL D. FAGEN IS GENIUS AND WALTER DID NICE SCALES ON GUITAR..INCREDIBLE MUSICIAN. SAW THEM LIVE IN MELBOURNE, AMAZING....❤❤❤
So awesome! On of my top 5 favorite songs! 🙏😇🤗💜❣️
Beautiful Performance. So smooth and cool.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written.
Steve Gadd's drumming on this track is stellar and really made the song come alive.😊
The drumming at the end always reminds me, at the end of a fireworks show, when they send everything they got into the sky. Gadd first laid it down, but this guy drumming is no slouch.
In my mind, the greatest band ever!!!
in reality too
@@MyPromixdirt love this band
No doubt
They were probably the best studio group ever. A couple a player song writers running an agency for free lance artists, at least back then. These days their a hell of a live band to. Love them then & love them now.
Rest in peace Walter Becker and Wayne Shorter.
Steve's hi-hat playing and cymbal work, is like playing a piano on a drum set.
This track is Epically Haunting, and Beautiful.

And still jamming to Mr

SD and Chicaco awsome music
The drum part itself is not complicated,but what is impossible to do is duplicate the feel! The transitions between time signatures is velvet smooth! No tension!
Awesome relaxing beautiful lyrics ,right there with Pink Floyd for me.
Absolutely note perfect unbelievable musicianship - simply the best
47 years and I still get chills when I hear this tune.
47 years of dime dancing, and Aja, I still run to you.
Thank you. Black guy who loves Steely Dan. Have seen them on many occasions with my best friend who has since passed. Memories
I'm black from the waist down.
Music sees no color 😎
Definitely one of the best live SD performances I've ever enjoyed.. thank you thank you thank you! ♥️
It's the record being played as we watched concert footage from various live shows edited together.
Great music is timeless they truly are one of the best complexities of their music is truly awesome
My go-to band, been a Dan fan since forever. ❤️ 😍 💖 ❣️ 💕 💘 ❤️ 😍 💖
Nice to see the late great Walter Becker again

Stone Cold Percussion Master!
@@lisalibby6716 didn't know that. That's amazing. Steve Gadd is just unbelievable.
Steve Gadd was on the album, here I see a different drummer, Keith Carlock
One of my favorite albums. They were so, so good.
One of the finest albums ever produced, and this is the best song on the album. Drumming is insane! Thanks for posting
Best sound playing when in heavy traffic on a raining winter night. Stress level drops.
So many essential elements all happening at once. The complexity of a superb wine.
How is it even possible to conceive?
Best song ever cut. Seemingly according to how many times I have chosen to rehear it.
Yep been a fan better part of 50 years and Every Song a gem. This one is diamond perfection and brothers and sisters I’ve been there and loved every minute. Hope there is a heaven and SD is the top bill with the Beatles and Ramones. Peace

Repose en paix Becker et longue vie à Fagen
Best Band, Best Album, Best Song 😘
Got to be one of the most complexly structured songs ever. Nothing comes close surely?
16 and this is still peak music
The instrumental parts of this song sound similar to Zappa.
The best studio/session band ever by far. Saw them once at Tangle Wood posing as "The New York City Jazz Review" what a surprise. Unbelievable, Truly.
The title song to one of the great SD albums.
This intro is tough to top…
Hooked up with Natalie MacMaster and her band after a Philly show they did 20 years ago… in their bus, the jokin’ around’n carousing stopped when a video this came on the big TV they had. All were transfixed, me included.
This album may I say as far as I am concerned is a Masterpiece, so complex but so smooth just my opinion!
Top shelf band classic song IT will be listening for many moons ahead great music thanks 👍👍👍👍
