This was from the movie FM, about a radio station at the turn of the dawn of FM radio. Before FM radio, imagine NEVER hearing clear stereo music coming out of a radio! FM changed the game for music and the recording industry. They now had a venue to showcase in album quality, the music that you could go to the Record Store and purchase for your very own, to play on your ever rising cost and quality of home sound equipment (more money!). This movie also spawned a Classic TV sitcom called WKRP in Cincinnati. Both the movie FM and the TV series are well worth your time for quality entertainment!!!
In the beginning, there were minimal commercials on FM too.
The soundtrack for the movie was great, had it on eight track.
One of the best bands EVER!
Yes! They are one of the coolest bands of the 1970s. They were original, unique, and didn't sound like any other bands of that time.I can only think of 2 other bands(sure there's more) that were so cool sounding. That would be ELO, and the Talking Heads
@@christineobrien7707 I totally agree about ELO.
FM was the thing in the early 70’s. They played AOR (Album Oriented Rock) clear crisp sound no AM bubblegum style songs! Great memories for me as a teenager
Love AM like I love FM . I like AM for choices and longer distance. FM for clarity mostly. AM evens picks up space noise!
And a BETTER stronger signal
FM radio did more than just change the game for the recording industry, it really did change the world we live in. There are many bands that lay the claim that American FM radio is one of the biggest reasons they became famous during the early 70s. Jimmy Page said this about Led Zep. Long gone are the days when a DJ could play whatever he wanted to, including playing a whole side of an album without commercials. So bands like Yes even though they only had 1 song in the top 40 charts back then, were still selling out huge arena's in city after city all because of American FM radio. Now how did all of this change the world we live in, well OMG where do I start? how many people went and saw these kinds of bands and played their songs at their weddings or at someones funeral. How many people were conceived before and after these concerts? lol I started playing the guitar when I was 8 years old because of a Jimi Hendrix song I heard on FM radio. So you see I could go on and on about how this wonderful music from that era changed the world we live in. And we may have never had heard of some of these bands if not for FM radio.
Couldn't say it any better it was a time my older friends 20s-30's who sophisticated listened to FM radio wanted to be like them
Not to mention that AM dj's talked.iver the first 15- 20 seconds. So annoying
I believe this song is about FM radio superiority over AM radio! I dig their Jazz, Rock, Blues Pop fusion sound!
Unless you're living in a small town(Gainesville,GA) like me with only one FM music station and some weirdo DJ playing what he is thinking were old 70's hits?
If you think for a second it is also instructions for playing music for a laid back party that kept the girls dancing till dawn and no one left alone
One of THE best structured songs Ever
Love love love this track. The late, great Jeff Porcaro from Toto doing the drums on this one.
Wow . I didn't know that . He was so young when he passed.
When you first meet Steely Dan it’s so lush and dense you don’t really absorb how great it is all at once. The most played band in my rotation, easily. Josie/Deacon Blues/Black Cow/so many more
"Drink your big Black Cow and get outta' here."
Black Cow, Peg, Hey Nineteen, Josie. Steeley Dan with a pile of classics.
I love Steely Dan, what an incredible duo. There are so many great songs that they did.
So much to get into with Steely Dan.
The movie "FM" was brilliant, the opening when the DJ next on realises that he has overslept....in the bad old days, when you only had AM radio, the music was scratchy and went in and out...when FM came along, it was like a revelation, you could actually hear the music, crisp and clear, without break-up, young dudes now don't know how much it meant to us oldies:)
When I first heard FM radio it was so refreshing right crisp and clear and the long versions of songs.
Your smile is contagious, Keep smiling. ❤️
This album is a must listen (on your time of course). Aja , A lot of great sax 🎷 😜
The backing vocals were from Don Henley, Glenn Frey and Timothy B. Schmidt from The Eagles
Their "Josie" and "Deacon Blues" are next for you!! Steely Dan, always catchy, smooth, well produced and usually a great sax or guitar solo.
Quintessential Late 70s album rock...
I love your reaction to the best studio band ever SD....your going to love all their music...your adorable.
When real musicians get off work, they listen to Steely Dan!
Lots of basic descriptions of AM & FM already posted here. I’m 63 now. When I was a kid, my dad taught me a lot about radios. He was a HAM amateur radio operator. When I was 12 in jr. high school they made us take shop classes including electronics. I’ve known this about radio since then.
AM stand for Audio Modulated. FM stands for Frequency Modulated.
AM radio was infamous for picking up electronic noise from just about anything, causing a scratchy garbled sound called Static. Static is noise. In old cars the engine’s whine would bleed through the AM car radio. On and on. Endless sources of static.
FM Frequency Modulated changed everything. The sound was high quality and it did not pick up static interference. FM radio stations soon became the home of the very best radio stations.
AM still exists today obviously, and although better than it was 50 years ago, it still picks up static interference. Cars evolved and all have resistor spark plug wires now and do not bleed into the AM radio much at all anymore.
Class dismissed
AM is better now,I guess you never "heard it on theX" back when outlaw and pirate stations could play anything and introduce a audience to what corporate suits didn't want you to hear. Maybe listen about some Rich Men North of Richmond.
@@ronv6637 Honestly, no I haven’t. I know the ZZ Top song very well but never once gave a curious thought about the origins. I always thought it was a Texas Radio station but have no idea about it. Thanks for the tip. I’m going to look it up!
Steely Dan is one of those groups that you get pulled into. You NEED to react to "Black Cow" and " Fez" two of there best songs.
Wow, great tunes! Totally got into this! Classic Steely Dan! Great selection and reaction again, Angela! Here's to your next one! 🙏🙂💜
Incredible band. Awesome song…
This one seems to be overlooked
when reacting to their music.
Every song on the album Aja is great. Great song writing, lyrics and arrangement. Excellent reaction.
Great reaction, Angela !!! I like great sax too 😊. Such sweet sounds come out every time it's played.
Interesting and fun fact the line up of this song, drums: the late Jeff Porcaro, background vocals Eagles: Tim Schmit, Don Henley and the late Glenn Frey !!!!!
Love Steely Dan( Peg) l play it every chance l get .... Like your choice of the oldies , but goodies ,and thanks 4 sharing...
Great reaction,you can't go wrong with their music, such a high bar of professionalism
This song never appeared on any SD album. It was done specifically for the soundtrack of the movie FM. Check out that movie, really great soundtrack. There’s also another version of this song with an extended sax outro instead of the guitar.
Absolutely correct. There’s also another great performance in the movie. It’s Linda Rondstadt doing a cover of The Stones song “Tumbling Dice.” I was always curious why FM was never included on a SD album, other than a Greatest Hits version. Contractual agreements to be sure.
New to your channel. Steely Dan is fantastic. Always was, and always will be. Amazing collection of musicians through the years. Hope to hear more reactions to their music. Thanks for a great reaction.
Steely dan rocks!!!!!
The 70’s Baby…The song nails it. FM no static at all. Your older fans like myself. No what I’m talking about 😎
I used to listen to this back in the day a lot. Loving on your videos and you’re beautiful to look at also
In the mid/late 60's, all pop/soul/rock, etc was on AM radio with static from power lines. Go under a bridge and the song stops.
Only thing that was on FM was Classical and elevator music.
And no static at all...
The best Jazz/Rock fusion band EVER...ICONIC!!!!!!!! 😎
I love your love of a good 🎷 solo, and Steely Dan has a bunch of them, check out Deacon Blues to start😉🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Classic blue eyed soul Brothers 💙
I have this on my playlist. Good music for chillin and relaxin. It's Smooth.
When I was young all We had was AM When FM came along it WAS life changing
Angela, as always, I like to listen to/watch your reaction to songs, as you just have a genuine persona about you, so I feel like you're not BSing as you comment. Glad you got introduced to Steely Dan, as they were/are a VERY underrated band. If you like their instrumentals, I'd highly recommend listening to another big hit of theirs called "Do It Again" and catch one of THE greatest guitar solos ever. Just a killer groove, and I think you'll like it :)
I think we all really love Good Sax!! :)
GREAT MOVIE. Killer soundtrack. The Nightfly by Donald is awesome too.
Finally! You got a funky song for a change!! :)
What a feel good song thx much !
I've always loved the music of Steely Dan,great stuff!.John M Guinto
When ever I hear this I am immediatly transported to 1975 when FM first went on the air in My city
Awe, So many memories of this song and band. I could be your grandpa lol but back in my day as an 18 year old this song and this band was on our radio and we loved Donald Fagen and Steely Dan. Steely Dan combined Jazz, Funk, Rock and a semi progressive sound that as a struggling young musician we all tried to copy. Thank you for your reaction and post oh ya and the memories! lol As always stay safe and much love to you and yours.
Love the reactions you do ! Classic SD tune
One of my favorite SD cuts, so many juicy ones to choose from and this one is great!
Awesome reaction. Check out Deacon Blue by these guys…. Great sax solo
FM was not on any album until they did a compilation. It's one of their best and very radio friendly, obviously.
Love me some steely Dan I remember I had a Lincoln 64or66 lol it came with am quadraphonic 8 track lol
I remember when fm radio came to be.Best thing since sliced bread.Yeah I'm old😭
Title track from possibly the best movie soundtrack of all time. ❤️❤️
Good God woman…Love this song and YOU!
“Hey Nineteen” please 🔥🔥🔥
Great theme song from the movie of the same name ,good soundtrack too...
This was off their later stuff in the 70s. In the early 70s they had a lot of great stuff. Their genre to me, is similar to The Doors and Tom Jobim. I miss piano, saxophones etc. Genres go by with time and should be looked at again.
Back in the 70's there was AM radio broadcasting and it would static then FM came out and there was no static.
I wonder how many members of the iPhone generation even know what AM is.
Donald Fagen and Walter Becker were Steely Dan. They employed some of the best studio musicians on the planet and the rest is history.
RIP Walter Becker.
I'm right at the age when I really don't remember FM taking over from AM radio. Some of my earliest memories are riding in the car hearing what we call "classics" from the 60's now. By the 70's the radio was a teen's main form of entertainment because there was little on TV even if you could get the 1 tv in the house away from your parents. lol
Donald Fagan (The singer, keyboard player and founding member of Steely Dan) did a sequel to this song on his solo album The Night fly. The song is also the title of the album.
Great song .
Great movie 👍
There's a great video of this with a light show on the "Empire State Building" for the anniversary of FM radio. It aired on NY television too. Steely Dan is one of my favorite bands. Saw them twice.
Back in the day, most cars only had AM radios with all their inherent static. While cleaning out my parent's house within the last year, we came across an FM converter that actually plugged into an 8-track player. So if your car didn't have FM but you had an 8-track player, you could add FM without rewiring anything. High tech at its' finest! 😉
Great clean soft rock and soul. All in one
I'm with you about the sax...a great instrument. It's a "saxamaphone" according to Homer Simpson!! 😄
Wow lived this Song
Need to react to steely Dan Peg great song
I just noticed your 1978 shirt even though it reads backwards. That's my graduation year! 👨🎓
Good song. It was a song on the soundtrack for the movie FM, and was a popular move in late 70's that features various artist at the time.
I saw them twice in concert.
Great shows.
I love it when you play the air sax!
This song has three different versions with different outros Someone has mixed them all in one it's beautiful. Look for it on YT
Right on.
Very lovely
Awesome cut!
Give RUSH a listen! A song called Limelight....(Official music Video) It's a banger for sure!..
Steely Dan
Deacon Blue
Hey Nineteen
Rickki Don't Lose That Number
Smooooth Funk!
Clean sound very good
No one can really appreciate how important the FM band (88 to 108 MHz) was unless you were growing up in south Florida during those times. At night when the atmosphere changes, the Cuban stations would just swamp the AM airwaves and make it impossible to get any stations we wanted. Later on in the night they would either shut down or there was possibly another atmospheric change so that we could get some stronger channels on what we called the skip. We'd get some North Carolina stations, some Alabama stations but still couldn't get our regulars. When FM came about, it was certainly a game changer, at least for us kids!
I like how you don’t waste time , you get right to it !
Everyone loves good Sax!
This song is All about the switch from AM to FM
Steely Dan….awesome band. Glad you could enjoy this!! 😊🌹
I remember seeing this movie when it was first released. The Steely Dan soundtrack is about the only memorable thing that came out of it.
"Dirty Work" and "Leader of the Band" are 2 other excellent songs
I remember when FM became a thing. Another big jump in technology.
Love your vibe reacting to this groovy tune
Cuter than a truckload of baby ducks.
A great song. Another great Steely Dan song would be Aja. I guarantee you’ll love it.
THIS SONG IS RADIO back in the 70 s
FM was a novel practice when this song came out
Yet the girls really did become more interested
I named a cat AJA because of this band! They never made a bad song. Rock on.
Steely Dan or Donald Fagen music is out of this world! You will enjoy it emently!
Walter Becker too 👍🏽
FM, yes. Remember the sound of the single speaker in the dash and the single speaker at the back glass of Mom's car.
Dance girl!!! :)
Lovely smile…
Have you done a reaction to Black Cow, ( amazing sax and horn arrangements throughout) or the title song from the Aja album. Both are worth a listen, if you haven’t already. Regards
Black Cow is a MUST reaction!!
Nothing like good sax . Lol
yeah,thats a tight tune.
The long version of this song is 6:13 and by far the best version much more 🎷🎷 longer jazzy sax solos pure beautiful
Since you like the Sax you need to listen to “What Does It Take to Win Your Love For Me” by Jr. Walker and The Allstars
