    "Josie" was a big hit in the 1970's. I'm very happy that a band like Steely Dan is successful here in the United States.

      @@sourisvoleur4854 I was still in college when this album came out so I had a horrible stereo system. It wasn't until I graduated ahd had a job that I was able to truly listen to them on a good system with a great set of headphones. I really noticed a HUGE difference with the headphones. I heard instruements that I did not even know were on the record. Take care.

    From their 1977 album, Aja, this was the third single released. Josie is the popular girl in this blue collar neighborhood who all the boys desire. Timothy B. Schmidt sang backup vocals on this cut.
    The many jazz chords, the Funky steady beat, the quintessential Steely Dan vocals and the great hooks in the chorus made this a very memorable tune. It reached Number 26 on the Billboard Hot 100's chart. Great reaction Harri. Thanks Harri and Neal. 👏👏 Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

    The Bass on this one is by the legendary Chuck Rainey & the electric piano is by jazz master Victor Feldman. The Dan were jazz aficionados and produced a great duet album by Pete Christlieb & Warne Marsh called Apogee you should check it out. Both are master saxophonists.
    The Aja album was what I consider to be My 20th birthday present. It hasn't been off My playlist for nearly 46 years.

  • @sourisvoleur4854

    The Dan has a jazz influence throughout their catalog to various degrees. Aja (the album) is drenched in jazz. Our local jazz/NPR station has (or at least used to when I was a more regular listener) the title track of this album on its regular rotation. That's how jazzy their program director finds it.

    One of The Dan's "rock-est" tunes even though it's vague flamenco seasoning comes from its forays into the Phrygian scale. One of the stand-outs on "Aja," their masterpiece. Walter Becker plays the solos even with Larry Carlton and Dean Parks also in the guitar chorus. Thanks Neal and Harri.

There was just the two main guys in SD, and the other musicians changed often (even just on this album), the list of which will amaze you.

      Josie -Steely Dan
      We're gonna break out the hats and hooters
      When Josie comes home
      We're gonna rev up the motor scooters
      When Josie comes home to stay
      We're gonna park in the street
      Sleep on the beach and make it
      Throw down the jam till the girls say when
      Lay down the law and break it
      When Josie comes home
      When Josie comes home
      So good
      She's the pride of the neighborhood
      She's the raw flame
      The live wire
      She prays like a roman
      With her eyes on fire, oh
      Jo would you love to scrapple
      She'll never say no
      Shine up the battle apple
      We'll shake 'em all down tonight
      We're gonna mix in the street
      Strike at the stroke of midnight
      Dance on the bones till the girls say when
      Pick up what's left by daylight
      When Josie comes home
      When Josie comes home
      So bad
      She's the best friend we ever had
      She's the raw flame
      The live wire
      She prays like a roman
      With her eyes on fire
      When Josie comes home
      So good
      She's the pride of the neighborhood
      She's the raw flame
      The live wire
      She prays like a roman
      With her eyes on fire

    Oh yah! Take me back to high school and my early 20's when I moved beyond my high school music. Steely Dan (Donald Fagen and Walter Becker) surpassed Lennon and McCartney in terms of song writing, with Donald and Walter way ahead of them in terms of sophistication. Be sure to listen to their final collaboration, "Everything Must Go". Perfection!!! They fused rock, soul, jazz, and then some. Mozart, Beethoven, and Bach were channeled through this unequaled duo. Donald Fagen is Mozart, and Walter Becker (RIP) fills in the rest. True musical genius! I am so blessed to have grown up during this era.
