    I just want to say that it is a thrill to see younger people enjoying the music that I grew up listening to. I was in my teens when this song was a hit, and I've now reached retirement age and I'm enjoying remembering the truly good times I had back then with this kind of music to listen to. I didn't know it was good times back then, because I was 15 years old, and you know how difficult being that age could be. Thank you for what you do and keep on doing it!

    I grew up in the 70s and Steely Dan was one of my favorite bands. They have so many good songs that you could do 3 a day for a week and not have a bad song. You have Peg, Hey Nineteen, Aja, Deacon Blues, Do it Again, Josie, Reeling in The Years, Ricky Don’t loose That Number and so many more. I think Donald Fagen is a musical genius and Jeff “Skunk” Baxter was one of the greatest guitarist of all time.

      They've done "Do It Again". They'd have to do "Do It Again" again.
      Seriously though, I agree with your choices 100%. I also added Bodhisattva in a different comment.
      I'd love them to react to "Hey Nineteen" next, if only for the Aretha Franklin reference, now that they know her a little bit.

    In case you haven't heard them yet, I think "Rikki Don't Lose That Number" and "Peg" were possibly their biggest hits -- and easily two of their greatest songs. Steely Dan has so many great tunes it's unfair really. And like with this one, while their music dazzles you their lyrics make you do a double take.

    I really like this song, but my favorite era of Steely Dan is the late 1970s. I highly recommend checking out “Kid Charlemagne”. It has one of the best guitar solos ever done on record and has a funky jazz vibe.
    Steely Dan’s album “Aja” is classic. And I used to not be a fan of their music years ago. I thought it was pretentious crap, but oh how I was wrong. So wrong. Give “Aja” a listen. The title track is amazing.

      Aja marked a change in their sound, as Donald Fagen decided to write and produce the sort of sophisticated music he'd always wanted to but wasn't willing to risk in their earlier career. The intro to Josie is a remarkable chord progression that just shouldn't work but does, exceptionally so... and then the bass comes in, kicking it into life.

    Steely Dan is known for their intricate and meaningful lyrics. Like this song with the verse, "Like the castle in its corner in a medieval game". Here, they are talking about the game of Chess. If yall know anything about Chess, there is a Chess piece called a Castle or a Rook. And the Rook or Castle always starts the game in the corners of the board and has only two types of moves, vertically or horizontally. They are comparing the man in the song to this chess piece, in which he feels cornered and only has limited moves available to him. Just brilliant! And the next line: "I foresee terrible trouble, And I stay here just the same". Is just as lucent in its meaning and you can feel his pain and confliction. Just brilliant again!

    This also stands out from the rest of Steely Dan's musical catalog in that it's one of only a couple of songs that aren't sung by Donald Fagen. A man named David Palmer sings lead on this one - and apparently in some of their early live appearances, Palmer sang pretty much all of the songs that Fagen sang on recordings, due to the latter having some pretty intense stage fright in those days. Palmer was really only with them for 2 years, however, and eventually quit the music business altogether to pursue a career in digital photography.

    Steely Dan is not a 'he', it's a 'they'. Steely Dan is primarily two dudes, the two core members were Walter Becker and Donald Fagan. This song was with their first singer, later, Donald took over the vocals. I've always liked this track. There's so many good Dan songs I would have to list 40 songs or more, they're just that good. My favorite album from them is Aja(pronounced Asia), and the title track Aja is probably my favorite track by the Dan. They started out with a core band and moved on to using various studio musicians. They would use a lot of them, and swamp them out depending on who they thought would contribute the most to whatever particular track they were recording. They were perfectionist in the studio, and spent a lot of money and time to capture the best performance of a song, no matter what. Steely Dan, named after a prosthetic phallus in William S. Burroughs's novel Naked Lunch.

    Steely Dan is one of the deepest rabbit holes you could go down for 70's music (way bigger than Steve Miller). Very difficult to name a bad song. Thus far, you guys have pretty much focused on their earlier works. Their music evolves over the course of their discography into a more up tempo sound that I think you both would really enjoy.

    This song was the second song after "Do It Again" off their debut album!! Talk about a 1-2 punch! The rabbit hole is deep and the numbers in the Dandom are plenty.

    I was fortunate to see Steely Dan open for Elton John in '73. Went out and bought this album next day. It started my trip down the rabbit hole that is jazz.

    Just want to say you guys have one of the better sounding audio playbacks compared to most other reaction channels. Keep up the good work ! And I just Subscribed :)

    I was in my teens when this came out, I can't imagine how my mom didn't go nuts with me playing the album over & over & over & ...etc. I was always glad she didn't pay much attention to the words, like on this song. Great one to react to, great to see you young folks learning about some old school music! I sure have fun learning new music, it's fun both ways ;-)

    Great song by a great band, I was fortunate enough to see them twice in concert and they sound just as good live as they do on CD.

    Funny thing about Steely Dan is that you can hear their songs without really paying attention and be all into the music and stuff, then when you start really listening to the lyrics, you'll often be like, "Hold up. _That's_ what this song is about?" 😂 This one's a lot more straightforward, though - a lot of their lyrics need a deep dive to figure out what they're really saying. Loved the look that Amber gave when she first realized what it was about, lol.

      For the first 30 years, I didn't know just how perverted so many of their songs were, not to mention their name. LOL

      Well, the band is named after a dildo....so it's not too surprising.

    Love Steely Dan. We have a running joke in my family if we don’t know who an artist is when a song comes on we say it’s Steely Dan. (Of course this was back before Google, if no one knew who it was, it stayed that way) 😂

    Classic 70s, absolutely L-O-V-E it!!! ❤️👍 I was born in 71 so I grew up totally immersed in the music of that era. It's so ingrained that I know the lyrics to songs I didn't even realise I knew!

    What an infectious, groovy groove. Strange how they keep the Steely Dan 'sound' with so many changes to their musicians. Maybe getting the best is their secret. lol

    Steely Dan was a studio band. A good compilation of a group of very talented musicians that put out great material.

    ‘FM’, Black cow, Caves of Altimira, Don’t take me alive, Haitian Divorce, Peg, Hey Nineteen…..the list goes on. I envy you listening to songs by bands like this for the first time.
    Enjoy 🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸

    I've always believed that Steely Dan is the epitome of irony, in that no two of their songs sound alike, but when you hear one, you know it's Steely Dan. SD tops my stuck on a desert island band list. Please do more. Thank you for what you do. We enjoy you two very much. ✌️

  • @richstrobel

    One of my favorites by them, in part because it wasn't overplayed on the radio. Two others are Midnight Cruiser and Change of the Guard. Great band.

  • @ForbiddTV

    Can't believe you haven't ventured beyond their first album. Their 1977 album Aja is on a whole new level. One of those top 10 albums on most people's list.

    The first person that knows what the eponymous Steely Dan was named after wins their very own slightly used steely dan. Here's a hint the answer can be found in the pages of the book Naked Lunch by William S Burroughs

    One of my parents favorite bands, went with them to see Steely Dan at the state fair maybe 8 years ago. Didn't really know much of their music but it was such a good and tight band I dug it. This song in particular stuck out and they had the 3 background singers for the chorus who killed it. Made a fan that day!

  • @jeannine5604
