@@juliettespain7994 It really is. When this came out in 1973, "Reelin' In the Years" was their most popular song, so it made sense for them to add that guitar lick after they reference the band name.
Rick Derringer was possessed on this track. Some of his best guitar playing ever. Becker & Fagen had a knack of getting that out of session musicians. They were so good, it’s a crime so many people don’t know about them that much. They are most likely the greatest American band/ (Becker & Fagen + whichever musicians were playing with them) ever.
I’ll say it over and over again , to really understand Dan you have to listen to all albums from the first to the last. Not a bad tune anywhere. The flow from album to album is amazing. Masterpiece after masterpiece. You really feel it from first song to the last. I have two bands I spin from song 1 album 1 to last song. Both are similar genius works. Zeppelin and Steely Dan
@@katylied24 Don't get me wrong. All SD is great music but "Aja" is more for the masses. It's all atmosphere, it's predictable and it has little or no excitement, no "newness". If I had to do the desert island thing with one record, "Countdown To Ecstasy" would be it. I've felt this way since I first put it on my turntable in '73. ;)
@@robbryant3588 I think you're correct, the masses seem to like things that are easy to digest. But what does it say about the masses who prefer a lack of newness or excitement to their lives?
@@katylied24 Exactly. A majority of the people that we share the earth with find safety in conformity. Most of the best music is outside their comfort zone.
Some bands create albums not songs. It’s a disservice to pick a song from an album. One of the few bands where it’s intended you must listen to the whole album to get the message.
i was just at a local "new and used" shop in my town, they have 4 boxes of records, i grabbed 2 records for 1 dollar, Steely Dan "Aja" and Goucho". great music! good vid! 😉

Love your energy, baby.... There's a live version of this featuring Michael McDonald on vocals... And they put a James Brown vibe on it.... Absolutely epic... Give it a listen!
Just when you thought you had the Dan figured out - they`d throw you a curve ball ... still sounds fresh almost 50 years later ... Bieber ... Swift ... Ed Sheran ... I don`t think so ...
I'm gonna tell you straight up that if you react to dimash you will gain tons of followers and views, start with sos, then do sinful passion and love is like a dream. Please do this
Exactly, can’t all be masterpieces. Not up to their usual Songwriting genius at all, 40 years of better songs to review from the Dan and Mr. Fagen too!
So many great Dan songs, this could be my favorite. That manic frenetic buzzbomb guitar solo never gets old. Yeah, I own a Steely Dan t-shirt.
Very cool to see young folks groovin on 45 yr. old tunes. Never stop!
Slide guitar courtesy Rick Derringer, the man who gave the world "Hang On Sloopy",and turned "Rock and Roll Hootchie-Koo" into a hit.
Blazing guitar!
Steely Dan are the grand masters of chord progressions… so here they throw out a banger that uses just one chord.
yeah doing the tape loop thing was really out of character for them but it gives the guitar a chance to go wild
Right after “Steely Dan T-shirt” there is a guitar lick from Reelin’ In the Years. It was so cool they thought to do that.
Awesome

So excellent
This is why my generation will ALWAYS be the coolest ever 😎
The Dan are funky AF! Their meticulous production makes their catalog sound so incredibly fresh after all these years.
I love your reactions!
Finally steely dan is getting respect
I saw you were reacting to this song and I immediately clicked on it - I want to see you groove to this song!
And you did not disappoint!
I love it when you're feeling the music. It just makes me laugh and smile 😂, in a great way. That's the way reactions should be.
We did have the best music in the 60s and 70s. Listen to Santana Woodstock version of soul sacrifice
This is my favorite Steely Dan song. The slide guitar is monstrous. Listen to the Boston Rag. Great guitar riff👍😷

Love your groove reaction to one of Dan's greatest
Smooth funky Delta blues. Love it

The legendary Rick Derringer in slide guitar. I'll say it again - Glamour Profession, Green Earrings, Aja, and 70 more.
These guys made Derringer play this solo so many times he finally walked out!
And when oh when will she realize Fagen has four brilliant solo albums, big part of the legacy.
@@ronrobbins2737 New Frontier would send her into an eargasmic frenzy.
@@richkurl Better yet, how about that entire album nonstop the way it’s meant to be listened to?
@@ronrobbins2737 This is true. Every SD album and the solo albums of Fagen and Becker has its own distinct feel and personality.
I love watching these youngsters reacting to the songs I grew up with. It goes to show good music is good no matter the generation
I do the same moves when this song kicks on!
This song and "Night by Night" are my favorite songs from the SD catalogue. I think you're ready for some "Caves of Altamira" now, Scribe !
I like watching how into the guitar solo you are cause it's a fuckin sick solo.
Check out “WEST OF HOLLYWOOD”. Has an epic sax solo by Chris Potter.
Love this Steely Dan kick your on! You should check out "Gaucho" and "Any Major Dude Will Tell You", those are some fireeee tracks right there
Just one chord and they jammed it up right. Great reaction scribe thanks. Take care.
Another great one by Steely Dan
Im in on any Steely ! Best reactions
+WEST OF HOLLYWOOD+ by Steely should be next. The sax goes ballistic for 4 minutes.
This song is amazing. The guitar is all over the place but never once sounds out of place.
Always been one of my favorite Steely Dan songs. Your reactions gave me even more appreciation for that insane groove.
I love to see the joy you get from music, you are beautiful
Classic classic Steely song. Thank you for discovering it.
hope you will get to "AJA' by Steely Dan for the drums. Also, the real Muddy Waters would be good to listen to, old school
Great choice. Love Steely Dan's music....
Showbiz Kids/making movies about themselves/they don't give a fuck about anybody else!
In 1973 they predicted the Kardahsians etc
Love Steely Dan! Thanks for doing all these reactions! ♡
Listen to green Earrings by Steely Dan. A bad ass bass line laid down by my man Chuck Rainey
You have great taste in music ... I've been a fan since the beginning in 1972. Fagan and Becker are incredible musicians and songwriters.
Whooo! That guitar was cutting up! 🔥🔥🔥🎵🎶💖
✌😎
Add "Green Earrings" to the playlist.
This is their most exciting album, "King of The World" and "Bodhissatva" from this album are as good as this one and will also get your heart rate up.
Head and shoulders above anything else they did. Criminally underrated.
@@robbryant3588 I don't understand why so many people prefer "Aja".

Please do “Sign In Stranger” next, or “Your Gold Teeth”.
WOW 🤩
Rick fuckin' Derringer on that slide. Mama!
o boy you went down the DAN hole !
Rick Derringer on slide guitar.
Getting real with the Dan of Steel!
Steely Dan are the groove Masters
So Its looks like you liked it that's cool
I love how she loves SD!

IIRC, the album cover said, "the Dan moves to Hollywood and writes a commentary".

I hope you heard Black Friday. Top tier Steely Dan.
Love the guitar licks! Do “Sign in Stranger”
Green Earrings next please.
ScribeCash, you are dope!

Should have called this 'Goin' to Lost Wages'

Rikki lee Jones does a great version of this song . Walter Becker produced it .
Green Earrings. Way funkier
Bodhisattva and king of the world and pearl of the quarter and your gold teeth on that same album
Jeff “Skunk “ Baxter epic on that
Lost wages, lost wages, lost wages.

The best is they live in LA and they tell them to their faces you suck and I don't wanna go to you're scrappy parties! which they did in real life!

Gotta do Razor Boy by SD.

Super furry animals did a song called the man don’t give a fuck which samples this, it’s great 👍
"El Supremo" cocaine lased Marijuana?
Sweet spot! Art for art sake. 10cc
Either some hip hop artist has already sampled this, or they have to.

Walter becker guitar
Not their best. You must do Aja!
Everybody has their opinion. This is a Great song.
Meh.
Exactly, can’t all be masterpieces. Not up to their usual Songwriting genius at all, 40 years of better songs to review from the Dan and Mr. Fagen too!
