I almost didn't give it a chance, I generally don't like covers of such greats, but I am sooooo glad I did. SUCH a good job, I've never heard a better cover.
I have become OBSESSED by THIS live version, of one of the GREATEST and most technically DEMANDING rock songs of all time! It's not just anybody who can take on "The Dan" and faithfully hang with it. BRILLIANT guys! Absolutely AMAZING! Thank you
It's not that technical or demanding. Try Black Page II or Greggery Peccary. Or Free Hand. (ruclips.net/video/vMrYSTzqFI8/видео.html) Steely Dan was a little better than average. These songs are technical and very demanding.
Check out the note perfect live version by the ORIGINAL guitarist for the song Elliot Randall : ruclips.net/video/vKunqSLItsg/видео.html&ab_channel=DarrellNutt
This song was part of the soundtrack to my childhood and this is one of the best live renditions I’ve ever heard. I’m also a musician and note for note, they really captured the essence of the studio recording here live! Great job
THANK YOU for keeping the music alive for all of us that lived thru the great 70s. And those that love it now. Your songs bring back so many wonderful memories. What a great tribute you pay to so many awesome artists. You guys Rock! \m/
You never know what you are going yo get when you click on a band that you didn't know. I sure am glad on clicked on this one. I am now going to view and listen to all of The Classic Rock Show videos.
Yes, great sound but complete idiots on video. I actually got dizzy from all the shot switching towards the end. Why couldnt they just stay on the person playing lead when it was his time? It looked like they had no idea who to put the camera on.
Let’s not forget the guy that brought the original Steely Dan recording alive with his magnificent guitar playing . His name? Mr Elliot Randall . A wonderful and extremely humble and gifted guitar player. Thank you Elliot 🌌💕🌠🕊👌
What ever they choose to play they Kill It~!! They are very special and we can't get enough~! Jess's Femininity is something to behold~!! Not to mention her singing ability~!
This group sounds absolutely great, and you can tell they've put in the hard work to learn and properly pay tribute to the music. Great vocals, bassist and guitarist especially!
Forget the snobbery re cover bands.....this fine bunch play,look,sound fantastic,and are much better than many outfits still touring with only one or two original members on board.
@@stratodanster Agreed, a lot of bands play their songs Live and change them around/make a mess of them. These guys are nigh on perfect and seem to be able to play anything!
fantastic you guys... you put your own soul and heart at this piece of art "Reelin in the years" you hear like if the song were a new one.... extraordinary, saludos desde Chih. Mx.
Most bands have no business trying to do Steely Dan, and it's almost always painful... they're too nuanced and quirky. This isn't as gutsy as the Dan, but they pull it off damn faithfully and with amazing attention to detail. Respect.
The Classic Rock Show; briljant. can't wait to travel at least two times from The Netherlands to the UK in January / February to see them perform live!
Like I said on another one of their covers, they can all take turns at being back-up singers as almost all the band members can play front man/woman on the various songs they have recorded. So refreshing to see such a class act.
Steve Parry is not only the keyboardist and singer here, but also the musical director. He should be able to play with anybody anywhere, but he does a great job with this ensemble. Well done on a difficult song, Mr. Parry!
love the young guy on lead guitar...kick ass duuuuuude...you made the classic better.....kick asss dude... aw3esome group.... the hairy hippie is the best guitarist I have seen on YT for years... thanks dude.
@@ducatiboy4951 Awesome to know, I raced moto way back in the day, I still have my 500cc Yamaha 2-stroke...lol, made a few people come to tears when they tried to ride it....
@@ronnietoots6797 Howie G is the other guitarists he's left the line up now and they have brought in Pete Thorn a brilliant American guitarist. Booked to see them in February next year at Newcastle (UK) think the tour is UK only. This will be the sixth time seeing them and although line ups alter slightly they still blow me away. Stay safe mate.
Best performance of this song since I saw Steely Dan do it live on a Sunday evening April 21, 1974 at the University of Toledo's old Memorial Fieldhouse. No female backing vocalists that night but they had the mighty pipes of future legend Michael McDonald, and that was enough. Advance tickets were $4.50.
I'm not alone, I see others are saying it too. When I realised it wasn't Steely Dan I went to choose another video but this is SO good I played it over three times!

Probably the best Steely Dan cover I've ever heard. BRAVO !
I am just ecstatic that we have this band to play all the true rock songs so we don’t have to listen to the crap that’s out now. YOU GUYS ROCK !!!!!!
@@gazzzza 🤡
@@gazzzza lol 4 chords that riff
Can't believe all these fantastic cover bandsout there. Another Awesome one here. CRANKSHAFT
Best cover band I have ever heard!
same here, I grew up with the classics they play. Amazing and so fun.
Lexington Lab Band and Leonid & Friends are also excellent.
Damn. Spot on. That shit was flawless. Exceptionally well-recorded I might add.
RE-SPECT. Dan is tough to play and make sound this effortless, their music is so sophisticated and clever. Well played everyone.
Steely Dan is technically complicated to play, and Donald Fagan's voice isn't easy to cover. They did a great job.
You nailed it brother.
@@gazzzza Agreed, the guitar solo was butchered.
I agree completely! Great job!!
Well spoken!.

To me this is one of the best covers I've seen them perform! The whole band nailed it!
Probably my favourite Steely Dan song of all time and you guys nailed it Perfect best cover I've ever heard of the song.
Mindblowing performance. I'm lost for words ...
I clicked on this thinking.. Oh boy they're going to try to cover Steely Dan.. Wow great job. Harmonies and everything.
They did indeed Scott, have you listened to the Lexington Lab Band doing Steely Dan ?
this is sincerely the best cover of this I've ever heard!! amazing..
Mrs atheist Totally, I grew up with this song and just posted the same thing. Best live version i’ve ever heard, even from Steely Dan themselves!
Incredible band & performers. I'd much rather go see them that the crap out there today. Keep rocking.
Brilliant job from the soundengineer!
Yes, great sound but complete idiots on video. I actually got dizzy from all the shot switching towards the end. Why couldnt they just stay on the person playing lead when it was his time? It looked like they had no idea who to put the camera on.
Just love this music..the sound and everything...great band...

Superb in every way. My goodness those vocals are out of this world.
I'm in Australia and would happily travel anywhere to hear these guy (and girl), they're brilliant!!!
What ever they choose to play they Kill It~!! They are very special and we can't get enough~!
Jess's Femininity is something to behold~!! Not to mention her singing ability~!
It's NOT Jess Harwood, it's her predecessor, Emily Jollands
Two top notch guitarists right there, with a great band. Looking forward to seeing them next year.
Best remake I've heard so far and I've heard a few. 👍
This group sounds absolutely great, and you can tell they've put in the hard work to learn and properly pay tribute to the music. Great vocals, bassist and guitarist especially!
Wow! That's some beautiful playing.
One of the best covers of all time. High energy
C'mon, guys...how can you be this fricking good?!
Bless these grand folks for keeping the very best era of music alive. My new favorite band?
Lexington lab band, don't forget😉!
One of my very favorites. Absolutely awesome.

ANnnnnd, Many times, they play it like it should have been done In the first place..
@@stratodanster Agreed, a lot of bands play their songs Live and change them around/make a mess of them.

CRS doesn't have THEIR original members, either.
fantastic you guys... you put your own soul and heart at this piece of art "Reelin in the years" you hear like if the song were a new one.... extraordinary, saludos desde Chih. Mx.
Is there anything these guys can't play? .... brilliant!
it doesn't look like windo, and they pick very hard stuff to do
Nope!
Something from Santana 😬
windomaker they played Hammer to Fall with Brian May!!!!!! BRIAN FUCKING MAY!!!!!!!!!!!
Most bands have no business trying to do Steely Dan, and it's almost always painful... they're too nuanced and quirky. This isn't as gutsy as the Dan, but they pull it off damn faithfully and with amazing attention to detail. Respect.
You should check out Lexington Lab Band doing "Peg". Very well done!!
@@kwbruce1972 ………..yip, I’m a BIG fan too 👍🏻
An ambitious song to cover. Great job.
Excellent. Really enjoyed the group vocals. That gave the live sound great depth.
Brilliant cover of a superb song. Fantastic vocals, drums, keys and geeetars!!!
this band really really rocks! I wonder if there is any other band which renders covers with such perfection... Kudos to this band!
You guys are freakin' good and very talented.From Singapore.
The Classic Rock Show; briljant. can't wait to travel at least two times from The Netherlands to the UK in January / February to see them perform live!
They are all so incredibly talented! i wonder how they all came together?! Tons of practice, no doubt! Respect!!
Wowee! Incredible cover sounds as good as the real thing. You guys are something else

Very pleasantly surprised how good this is. Huge Steely Dan fan. Seen them many times. My screen name says it all.
A really great covers band, in fact one of the best! can't wait to see this band in Birmingham next year! 🎸
Vocals and harmonies are really really good for each and every song they do...
I've been watching this band again and again. The thumbs down people are deaf.
silky smooth guys -- some of your best harmonies. rock on.
Wonderful band..!! Excellent musicians..!! Bravo..!!
Absolutely fantastic job on this, as is anything Classic Rock Show does. They look like they’re having a blast, too!
WOW, just WOW.... Love the bowler hat too! :) ---- I had to edit my comment: the sound of those dual guitars is in-cre-dible.
How can you not like this!!!!
You guys have became one of my favorite cover band awesome....I need more more more from steely Dan🙏🙏🙏🙏...
Finally again. Real music.
Fantastic! Superb guitar work
love the young guy on lead guitar...kick ass duuuuuude...you made the classic better.....kick asss dude... aw3esome group.... the hairy hippie is the best guitarist I have seen on YT for years... thanks dude.

Much RESPECT! You all do justice to all the timeless, classic rock songs you play! Major kudos!
Amazing band 😍 I wish I could see you one of theses days at one of your shows 🎶🎶❤🎶🎶
Kudos to the rhythm section. Many bands try to play this song but can’t recreate the groove. This band does it quite well.
Best cover for this song in RUclips. 5*
This is Awesome!!! thanks
There will never be another CRS lineup like these, they all were absolutely incredible.
How come there are sixty six thumbs down for this amazing cover? It sounds like steely dan itself. Omg, absolutely astonishing

Can’t get over how awesome all of you sound on this cover. Great job !!!!
Damn, that good! And I DID this tune! It;s REALLY nice to have these type of singers and players behind you. A+++++
I could be critical, but these guys do a pretty good job of covering a seriously difficult band and song. Well done!
Hey Walter are you listening? Your still played ! Rock on brother
Wow! This is good!!👍🤗🇸🇪

One of the best covers I've heard. Some aspects are even better than the original. Great work!
Let’s remember so many great bands got their start doing cover songs in bars. These guys rock & do so immaculately!
Siete il mio carburante di energia per affrontare le giornata . Quando sono giù ascolto voi e subito 😀 spero di vedere nuovi video 🎉
Lost track of how many times I’ve listed to this. Miss this lineup.
Freaking excellent you all!
My goodness, this is good!!! 10/10!
Just unbelievably good!
Brilliantly done. Great cover band. :-)
Great job on this classic song.
Crazy good. Not just a cover, they add a flair
Fantabulous !
