Outstanding work! The best SD cover band i've ever heard!!
Donald is 75 now and won't be able to tour much longer. Bands like this need to continue to keep Steely Dan/Fagen stil alive. This and all your other selections from this concert are just superb.
the recording is impeccable. you can hear all instruments without drowning others out. the drummer is like a metronome
Talking of mteronomes -within pop/rock drumming the guy in U2 comes to mind..I think he must rehearse his exact intention kinds thing.
And music sounds good
It does sound good but if I were running the house mix I would bring both high harmonies down a bit, as they seem a little hot for this room.
@@TracedaBassman I thought as much. But then I thought maybe I was being a bit critical
Metronomic drumming? Roger Nicholls' Wendel II drum machine was used on The Nightfly, but I'm not exactly sure on which tracks. New Frontier also has a very regular, metronomic beat.
There aren't enough superlatives to describe the quality of this.
I never get tired of this or All Things Dan. Thank you. 👌
True masters. I’ve been into the ‘Dan’ since the early 70s I can listen to them every day. I know every note in my blood. I could listen to you guys every day🤟🤟🤟✊✊✊🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍
@@garrycomloquoy7141 me too. I also even know exactly where the scratches come in from my original vinyl 🤣.
My buddy Tom Hemby on guitar is smoking it yall, great band
He's nailing it down!!
Superb ...
@@larryweakley3314 he is truly gifted. Completely nailed it 👌
I keep coming back to listen to this. Just fantastic!!
Again I bow my head in respect for your outstanding work. You are, without no doubt, the best Donald Fagen / Steely Dan tribute band I’ve ever heard. Thank you so much for you effort and excellent performances with this material. Bravo!👏🏼
And just the right amount of autotune
I concur.
Thank you. Glad you folks get it.
Great Beautiful work🙏🎶🎶🎶
Wow this drummers meter is spot on. Really hard groove too. Just wow. Great band too.
This is amazing
You couldn’t possibly have done a better job than this
Awesome thank you
Really good cover, folks. Groove, tone, layers, vocals, intent... it's all there.
Pure pleasure. Thanks folks! Fagen’s masterpiece done justice here !!!
everyone is a spot on great musician and john hammond kicks!
Holy Christ that's good. Thanks!
Love you all. Perfect copy. Original in your own way. What an extra ordinary works. Congratulations on a sound engineer. This is heaven!
Right... Team effort.
I’m a big Steely Dan/Donald Fagan bass playing fan, props to the bassist..... damn note for note.
And to the arranger for a note for note transcription. 😉
@@TNKeys And the sound mixing engineer for the same mix!
That looks like Gary Lunn on bass, and yes, he’s an incredible player! Also Tom Hemby on guitar. Tim Akers on keyboards (black shirt), John Hammond on drums and Gene Miller on vocals. They also play together in Tim Akers’ Smoking Section, an amazing funk, soul and R/B band featuring horns (who are likely represented in this video, I just can’t make them out). Gary’s bass on their cover of Rock Steady is fantastic!
@@shermanpeabody5512 Gary Lunn, did he used to play with a CCM band back in the 80s?
@@shermanpeabody5512 check out Gary Lunn’s Panhandler solo.
Absolutely beautifully done guys. There can't be a SD fan who doesn't recognize how good this is.
Was dancing to this by the Drifters at the age of 14 in 1956. Loved the Donald Fagen rendition when I heard it years ago. I love this song. You guys are killer.
Same age as my Mom. You've got you 80 on the way...Happy Birthday!
She took me to concerts as a kid and instilled my love of live music. Saw James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Jackson 5 (before they had a record deal), Al Green, etc. in the early 60's and 70's.
Great take on Greg Phillinganes’ piano solo👏👏👏 And: amazing job on making the music sound as good and accurate as this👍
Absolutely fantastic!!! Guitar 🎸 makes Larry’s solo his own 👍🏻
Super tasteful guitar! Bass/drums, omg, it’s all good.
BRAVO.... LOVE how you care about your musicianship and performance well BRAVO..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
100% needle drop! If I closed my eyes it would be difficult to discern the original from the cover. BRAVO 🎼🎶🎹
Im speechless. Congrats. Excellent work.
John Hammond is rock solid and grooves! That snare...that snare!
That is stunning thanks for posting
Genes voice is perfect for this one.
So nice great job!
Wow...just wow. And I'm a 'dan fan from way back
An utterly brilliant song, fell in love with its musical complexity on the Nightfly album in 1982. Studied it ever since, now this absolute treat of seeing it performed live. I need to rub down these goosebumps! Blown away!! What a creamy guitar tone.
Yes! When the singers hit that chord, "mine", all the crazy notes are there, so accurate and satisfying.
@@shannonmorris8501oh yeah, it reminds me of a fine wine. When I got The Nightfly piano music I was amused to find some pieces like Greenflower Street didn’t bother with a key signature because there were so many accidental flats and sharps. I’m a guitarist and love to play some piano but I play like the dog in the Muppet Show.
The Nitefly has to be one of the greatest albums ever made. These are great live renditions played by a superb band! Then again, you don't need me to tell you this - just listen!
Bravissimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!
Awesome performance!!!
Beautiful songs !!!
Excellent interpretation
Incredible. Can't be done better. Lead vocals are a dream!
you're like Steely Crack thank you
In a great groove - gotta love it!
Solid!!!
Wow, sounds better than the original!! What a pleasure to to hear and you peps are so lucky to be in this great band.
Excellent!
Please, don’t stop to post this awesome videos! You are awesome! Congrats from BRAZIL 🇧🇷
🇬🇧👍🏼
am i allowed to say wonderful.... wow
Love so much this song... !!!
Astonishing job.
I'm surprised there aren't more views for this group and their other songs. Got a lot of balls covering D Fagen. Not very easy to do. Impressed with the back up singers in particular. Hit all the right notes on time, Not surprised no DF sounding voice for vocals. Again, hard to imitate his voice..Really enjoyed this and the other songs from that album that you guys covered. Nice work, deserves more views!
No New Jersey sneer. ;)
When Steely Dan is gone. This will get more views/. Mark my words.
Very brave, great point
Amazing ! The only word for this .
Playing that steely dan so in the pocket LIVE is spectacular
Music I love your music I love your music keep on playing
I like watching this band even more than listening to the original tracks. In the early 80's I attended university with some of them, and did a lot of Nashville recording work with Tom, Gary, John. Nowadays, I am just an amateur Hammond B3 grinder for amusement.
Such respect for the original work.
Awesome job guys.... and gals.
Superb in all ways. Thank you for all the effort it took for this result! Love The Nightfly. For me, it eased the pain of the Dan concluding their '70's run.
I grew up in a musical family. Surrounded by Cannonball Adderley, Nat his brother, Nancy Wilson, Motown artists... not to name drop just thankful. You guys are truly some of the most gifted artists I have ever had the privilege of listening to. If you are ever touring in the US please post the dates here. I would love to see your performance.💝♾
Lekker!!!!! Playing this live and so tight is outstanding.
Kudos to Mr. Hemby on guitar. Very tasteful.
love it !
Impecable. Justice made
SUPER killing cover
Terrific guys❤
Sounds like the Purdie shuffle- what a groove!
FANTASTIC JOB EVERYONE!!! I never imagined I would hear any band play this song anywhere near as good as the The Nighfly recording, but all of you nailed it, 🤯 and the mix was perfect. Personally I Fagan himself would be impressed, well done everyone.
I use to play Donald classic album nonstop, this live show is wonderful and perfect.
Extremely Amazing!!!
Tom Hemby is a BEAST
Only 905 likes! WTF!? So good!
👍👏👊
Tom Hemby. Wow. 🎸🔥
Awesome rhythm section. The drummer is relentless. The bass carries the whole song.
Incredible work , guys...Thank you!
Wonderful music and wonderful musicians! Thank you so much!
Absolutely stunning! One thing I love about this track is the Hammond/Leslie growl - he totally nailed it.
I Love the Dan ! - Your covers have all the integrity of the origilnals !
Well done guys !
Great stuff!
THANK YOU FOR THIS MUSIC !!! You are great players guys, keep it going !!!
amazing cover!
Great tune and great cover!
Fantastic!
You did the song (the Drifters), Donny and yourselves justice there. Well done of you.
Nope. Not The Drifters. I think it was The Everly Bros.

Thanks for keeping such old classics alive so brilliantly.
Perfectly polished!
Everybody -- Nailed it!
Very impressive
Love it
.....drummer's on point😏
Great cover of a Great cover. Took me a while to see the keyboard player tucked away at the back. Then it all made sense. Outstanding musicianship throughout.
Awesome guys
Great cover!
Ohhh yeahhh 💥
Smokin'!👍🏼
Incredible job! Just incredible. That right there is one of my favorite piano solos ever, and he totally nailed it. What else can I say? The drums, the bass, the vocalists ... it's all just outright amazing!
I was looking for a live version of this song and found this one. Had NO idea it wasn’t DF til the end.
Kudos! I’ve listened to all the other videos. Great job!
Phenomenal 😮
As good as it gets,superb❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What a great solo, Tom Hemby!
Props to the mix board master. Sounds like a studio!
Anthony Jackson I thank you!
Definitivamente impecables, rebosantes de calidad en todos, absolutamente todos los aspectos, una banda tributo extraordinaria.
Rhythm section nailed it. Great. So hard to play this right. 👍
Otra joya😍😍😍😍
There`s a fantastic UK Steely / Fagan tribute band called Nearly Dan...they also really nail the songs
sorry to burst your bubble Karl but they are not a shadow of these guys. Too much "garage band" sound like
Just Great
