No need to defend yourself. You’re a superb reactor and analyst. Ignore the negative AH’s.
Exactly. It's all about the music.
The thing I love about SD is that no two songs are alike.
Not even your gold teeth 1 and 2 :)
Very true! But you can say that one thing stays the same; their ability to blend sophisticated “jazz harmony” with catchy melodic hooks and unique story lines.
@@ronrobbins2737 Throw back the little ones....
Time Out Of Mind...a groove about shooting heroin. Leave it to SD to create something so funky about addiction.
Mark Knopfler on the guitar solo.
Smoking Heroin.
@@egyptianminor I know the term "chase the dragon" normally refers to smoking heroin. But here they are talking about shooting heroin. The lyric, "the water will change to cherry wine", refers to the blood that is drawn up into the syringe when shooting heroin.
@@guitarman0551 Correct.
Unfortunately, Knopfler's gig was a less-than-happy experience for both him, and for Becker and Fagen. The duo had Knopfler do repeated takes because they were not hearing what they wanted. A big source of the problem is that Becker and Fagen were accustomed to musicians who can read, and Knopfler does not.
I *love* this album now, but I admit, as a Steely Dan fan, it took years for me to warm up to some of the tracks. When "Gaucho" was released in 1980, some music critics, and some fans, said it was "too mellow," almost like elevator Muzak. However, behind a seemingly musically placid surface, there is more than a bit of foreboding and darkness, both lyrically and musically. Dan was always like that, but on this album, even more so. It's deep!
I agree with you it took awhile for me to warm up to the different style on this album. When I listen with headphones on the beauty of the intricacy of the sound draws me In!
I love Gaucho, the song and album. It's an LA fable told from NYC.
After this, go straight into The Nightfly, Donald Fagen's first (and best) solo album.
150% pure unadulterated talent
Great albums. The others aren't far behind.
Not a bad tune on The Nightfly.
Yes.
Your crazy
"Third World Man" is one of those deep cuts by Steely Dan that becomes your favorite, until you hear another one of their great songs. The melody is so haunting, Larry Carlton's flavorful guitar, and the message of the song together almost brings tears of sorrow and joy at the same time.
Third World Man for me, is one of there very best songs
The amazing Larry Carlton with the guitar solo on Third World Man.
This was the last of Steely Dan... just as awesome as the first.
I adore these three songs! So jazzy. You just “ woooed” to Michael McDonald’s vocal run on Time Out of Mind! He sang backup on many of their songs- most notably “ Peg”.
Song’s about shooting heroine.
Michael, you’re one of my top reactors- don’t let the bastards get you down.
steely dan has the best studio guys in the world for perfection
Now that you have heard Gaucho entirely you have an appreciation for the genius of the composition of the music. Third World Man ALWAYS gives me a tightness in my chest like my heart is hurting.
Gaucho is probably my favorite album of all time!!!
For me, "Time Out of Mind" is the highlight of the album. Anyway, as always, I enjoy your comments. Glad to have taken this journey with you through their 70's albums.
Wow, I haven't heard Third World Man for about 30 years. I don't remember liking it this much. Maybe my musical tastes have changed, but listening to it now.... it's fantastic! Thanks for doing it!
Don’t forget to check out “FM” and “Here at the Western World”. These were songs that weren’t released on the studio album.
I love Here at the Western World, one of their deep cuts and one of my top 10 SD favorites!
Endorsed!
Try 'Jack of Speed'. It was fire in concert...saw that tour among others, but it was just perfect seeing Steely in Vegas...hated the aisle nazis, but the venue was perfect for their art.
Time Out of Mind is my favorite of these three. Excellent lyrics and music. I loved the funk and the storytelling in My Rival. Third World Man is beautiful.
On Time Out of Mind, that voice you heard in the background towards the end of the song was Michael McDonald.
So great.
I really, really like Aja.....I LOVE Gaucho. I'm right there with ya.
Time Out Of Mind is pure ecstasy live. One of my favorites. That guitar solo in Third World Man 🔥🔥🔥
Also, 😁, Gaucho is my favorite SD album. I think for me a big part of it is the nostalgia that comes with it. I was a new soldier in a small German village. Nobody hung with me at first. So most nights were spent with German beer and this album. I totally understand when you say that Third World Man stirs you emotionally. It completely captivates my soul. There is a live cut of that song off of Alive in America I believe and you could tell the audience is in a trance like state. Love it. Music unites ❤
We were stationed in Germany- listening to this when it first came out. My German rock fan friends didn’t get the Dan’s style back then. Too bad we weren’t there for you- but it was probably before you were born!
Third World Man is top 5 SD. Freakin guitar solo with drums makes my heart cry.
I can almost guarantee that Michael Jackson and Quincy Jones heard that opening drum part on Time Out of Mind and “borrowed it” for Billie Jean.
This is a great observation.
I'm sure it's out here but there was an actual mash up of Billie Jean and Do it again in the 80s believe it or not. It was played on the radio.
If a reactor doesn't ever dislike something, or some part of something, *How* will the viewer know for sure that they are being genuine?
💯
Dramasyde has expressed his dislike for some things. That you haven't seen it doesn't mean he hasn't.
@@scurvybro8850 i believe you misunderstood me. Did you watch this? It was related to what he said.
I love STEELY DAN .....
Thank you
Michael, "The Nightfly" is your next album on fire! Donald Fagen's first solo effort. It is a tribute to the music he grew up listening to. Its fire, and literally the first music CD I purchased after purchasing my first player.
Those of us who already have 40years on this stuff really appreciate you (KNOWING how to listen) because now we experience it again like OUR first time. The Steely Dan/Donald Fagen discography showcases exactly what true songwriting/production/creative genius is all about…… In stark contrast to the non-Music, no-talent, classless tribute to vulgarity (the rap/hip-hop genre) that’s all but taken over pop-music culture worldwide.
When I was a teenager in the early 90s, I was a drummer doing some pretty low end session work. Recording drums is probably the most difficult thing to do well. So I was working on my craft trying to get good. Then I discovered this album. Bought the CD, went home and hit play. It knocked me out. Two things. I think the drumming on Babylon Sisters might be the most impressive pop drum recording I’d ever heard. Second, the guitar on Third World Man just blew my mind. At this time, guitars were mostly over-processed, played either all the way clean or with way too much gain. We had grunge but hair metal still infected everything guitar-related for better or worse. That was my real introduction into Steely Dan aside from the hits I’d heard on the radio before. Third World Man remains one of my favorite songs of theirs. I used to wonder how such a magical guitar sound could be made. Larry Carlton plugged his Gibson ES-335 straight into a late 50s Fender tweed deluxe amp with the volume on 3 or 4. That’s it! No pedals, no rack effects, just a great player with his guitar and an amp. Magic!
Btw, if you’re not ready for this to end, Donald Fagen’s solo stuff is worth checking out. The Nightfly is one of the first digital recordings ever made. Walter’s solo stuff is less radio friendly, but worth checking out too.
Please take the time to appreciate Third World Man from the Alive in America album. The drums and piano are so crisp, and the two guitar solos are ridiculous. Not loud and fast but perfect.
I just decided - tonight - that this is my favorite Steely Dan track. I remember the first time I ever heard it... on AM radio, in the car, and I pulled over cuz the groove was insane. And the DJ never announced the track. For years, I called this song "the lost Steely Dan song". I knew who it was... I knew it wasn't from Aja... but I hadn't heard Gaucho yet. And I didn't hear Gaucho in its entirely for a number of years. (Lots going on 1980-81.) When I did finally hear the song again, it was like the circle closed, what was lost was found... all that. Great reaction.
Pure beauty!
If someone was telling you that, yeah, that's ridiculous. We're checking out YOUR reactions. Hell, I already know what mine is. Ya know, music is subjective, people like what they like. Just do your thing brother, we'll be here. And you're correct, stopping a video has nothing to do with them blocking. They will, or they won't. Plenty of reviewers play the tunes all the way through.
Exactly, don't take it personally. Some people like coffee, others prefer tea. It's your show, not theirs.
I appreciate what you had to say tonight. I agree with the way you do your reactions. They are yours. If there is a song you really like and I don't you will never know, because it is none of my business. It's ok. People have to realize they aren't supposed to try dragging someone down because they don't agree with their choice of anything. We have the right to like what we like. I personally like Steely Dan. It is music my husband and I would dance to in the living room. Thank you for your reaction.
Time Out of Mind is so funky and it also swings hard. Only Donald Fagen and Walter Becker were steeped so much in jazz and RnB to pull it off like this.
It's good to see a youmg man groovin' to music 50 years old.....hahahaha....lol.......hahaha...
Bit of exaggeration. It's only 41 :-P
Your subscribers are here for what you bring to the whole experience. Thank you Michael.
Just react honestly. That's what people enjoy, and nobody is afraid that you might not like Steely Dan. They created some spectacular compositions and any fellow musician is going to understand their weapons-grade genius. Give Gaucho another shot. It's actually awesome.
Third World Man is amazing, isn't it? That whole mournful mood, both in music and lyrics. I like how it bookends the album with the equally moody Babylon Sisters up front. I think I already said how I totally get your reaction to the album's title track - there's no denying it's one of their more oddball songs melodically and rhythmically and it took me awhile to warm up to it. Some of the Dan's quirkier songs really make more sense as deep cuts or even little musical in-jokes (Through with Buzz comes to mind) ... and I enjoy them on those terms. Cheers!
What a great variety of songs to end this album with. A little groove, a little jam... very nice
Delicious flow and ease...melody and sound to soothe the soul☆
This is a great trio of Steely Dan. The last two are entrancing, even more than the first.
Yes ! I knew you were going to love Third World Man, I could see you getting lost in it the way it gets me every single time I hear it. That is one beautiful piece of music, and along with Home At last from Aja, probably my favourite songs by this incredible band. Thanks for taking us on this journey, I've loved every minute. I agree with the comments that you should head over to Donald Fagens Nightfly to finish this journey off next time you need a fix !
This whole album was on repeat, LMAO I'm aging myself because it was literally an album.
I admire your honesty. Fearless.
Yeaah! More funky Steely Dan grooves! 'Tonight when I chase the dragon, the water may change to cherry wine. the silver will turn to gold...Time out of mind'...leave it to Fagen to make shooting heroin sound so much more exciting and appealing than it actually is in real life. OOOh, I really dig Third World Man... I love that when you first hear the beginning, you think 'oh, this ones not funky'. Then you start to realize that, although it's smoothe and laid back, it still brings the funk in it's own way. And as always there is that incredible musicianship and the impeccable Fagen storytelling!
Time out of mind is one of my faves!!! I’m a huge Dan fan and it doesn’t bother me if you’re not crazy about some of their work. It’s not for everyone. BTW, that’s Michael McDonald singing harmony. Good stuff!
Let the trash take itself out. More Steely Dan for the rest of us to enjoy!
You the man! Character & presence.
Haters gonna hate! Don't waist your time on fools. Been with you all the way since 'Can't buy a Thrill' and enjoyed the journey very much. I got reacquainted with a group from my youth. It's neat to hear a song/album with new ears, 40yrs apart. Thanks for the ride!
Thank you for you honest reactions, I really enjoy them.
You were right about Gaucho, thanks for sticking with your assessment....Time Out Of Mind is a masterpiece.....Third World Man is an excellent closing track
I don't care when a reactor comments: during or after. I would have to do it during a song, because I can't rely on my memory! Plus spontaneity will (and should?) happen in life. People need to chill. Don't be too rigid, don't be quick to make judgements of people you don't know. It's not like they haven't heard it before!?
This was a great 3-pack!! So much more fun to listen with someone, than alone. I am stuck in bed a lot, and I just LOVE having your musical company and opinions, and sometimes see what you notice that I missed.
Larry carlton guitar on third world man. fyi, Larry Carlton was also the music director on Aja
Glad we finally got here and even more glad to hear your comments about the album and your channels. Three great songs created by the consummate band. The ride’s not over yet. Two Against Nature is next up in the Jukebox. 🔥
Let’s goooooo
@@DramaSydETV It's time...let's goooooo. i love all Steely Dan and have enjoyed your reactions. It's time for Two Against Nature. :).
As a SD fan from waayy back, I found that some of their songs have to grow on you. I personally love Gaucho, but I have listened to this album so much. All the songs are great in their own way, in my opinion. We all have our favorites. The great thing about SD is the variety you get. It’s not ok to belittle someone if their taste in music is not your own. I do appreciate hearing the music uninterrupted. Ignore the haters, everyone else enjoys your reactions.❤️
Loved your reaction my friend , GAUCHO is a great album , all there music is magic , HAVE ALL THERE ALBUMS , JUST PURE QUALITY LISTENING , HITS MY SOUL ,BIG FAN 🎹🎸🎸🎷🎵🎺🎶🎹🎸🎸🎷🎶🎙🎺🎸
"My Rival" was always a bit humorous to me as Donald describes the shortcomings of his "rival".
He’s got a scar across his face, he wears a hearing aid. Somebody got to him before, but he doesn’t listen. Awesome.
Great reaction !
Gaucho a massively underrated album
They sound very relaxed on these songs.
Third World Man gets me every time.....perfection!
I love all the double entendres on My Rival. “The milk truck eased into my space. Somebody screamed somewhere.” Wow.
My Rival is one of the most organ-forward songs SD recorded. Fagen even threw in a couple intentional B3 clams for no good reason other than, possibly, his own amusement. Best. Leo.
Oh my DramaSydE, Thank you, thank you for more Steely Dan - pure excitement for my ears.
One of my favorite bands/groups 👏🏽
And "Time Out of Mind" ❤👏🏽❤
If you have time to breath, you have time for Steely Dan , excellent review, thanks for the non interuptus!
When I first heard the song "Gaucho," I felt luke-warm about it. Elated by the other offerings of brilliance on that album, I dug into Gaucho a bit more. Catchy intro and main musical theme, eerie bridge/chorus, back to the somewhat bouncy-happy main theme. After dissecting the lyrics did I realize how they combined to form a masterful work of art--I then saw a connection to Glamour Profession, musically and lyrically, to storytelling elevated by the music to a kind of mystical level, hard to explain exactly. Perhaps you know what I'm getting at, Syd.
In my opinion, the live rendition of TWM on "Alive in America" just slays: it's stepped down, and the guitar showcase segment is white-hot -- a must-hear!
Steely is who great musicians listen to. Because, cmon now.
Third World Man has David Gilmour-level guitar playing.
Loving more Steely Dan! Time out of mind is so amazing, one of my favorites. Ignore the people that have a problem with you not loving every song equally. You have the right to like a song over others. Thanks as always for the great content! 😊
Get the funk up! Get the funk up!
Getter Done ✅ Brother Mike... Here to Stay
These guys are able to match music to lyrics. What a gift.
Oh I knew you'd like this song. You've now reacted to imo.the 3 best songs on Gaucho. Babylon Sisters; Glamour Profession and this gem
Screw ‘em if they don’t agree with your reaction. I’m sure even your most loyal followers don’t always agree. Hearing your opinion is what matters. If someone can’t take a differing view, then they should just listen too the music without a reactor.
It’s tough times we live in. If someone’s opinion disagrees with someone else, they’re immediately invalidated. Politics, music horse races; you name it.
Keep the great work up, please.
DramaSydETV Are you going to react to Two against nature? It’s Steely dans comeback record they released almost twenty years after Gaucho and it’s absolut killer!
I’ve been on this Steely Dan journey with you since the beginning. It’s kind of sad to have reached the end. But there is so much great music out there. I’m glad you are starting to explore Yes. Peace.
It's not the end. Steely Dan still has 2 more phenomenal studio albums, a live album, plus 2 songs (FM and Here at the Western World), plus all the Donald Fagen and Walter Becker solo albums. We're only halfway through this journey.
Chase the Dragon - smoking heroin vapour w/ a straw as it's being heated in a candle heated tinfoil paper. 'Mystical Sphere = reference to a ball of Nepalese Opium resin. Yes, that background singer most prominent @ 3:38-42 is Michael McDonald. Guitarist Steve Khan spectacular on 'My Rival', dido w/ Larry Carlton on 'Third World Man'.
if i remember correctly, this album was originally lost in a fire and they had to re-record it...
These are some great songs........enjoy!!!!
Mark Knopfler on Guitar too!
This was the first Steely Dan I ever owned. I can't remember if I bought the cassette or pocketed it but, this was my first acquisition, as it were.
I might have come home with Pretzel Logic that day. I admit nothing.
"I'll match him wind for wind." hahahahaha
Glad you will listen again Gaucho is a great tune 3rd world man is a masterpiece!
This one is great. And I to like Steely Dan tunes in different degrees. They all are written so well.
You should check out "The Second Arrangement - Demo" - it was a song meant for Gaucho, but was erased by a technician.
Someone found an early tape of the song.
It shows just what could have been an even better album.
My Rival and Third World Man were replacement songs when The 2nd Arrangement was lost.
Subscribed a long time ago. What a fantastic journey watching you react to one of my favorite bands. Not everyone likes Steely Dan but you appreciate what I did about them 50 years ago. Great Channel. Love your analysis. Thank you.
Love this groove.
Yep dude like me Gaucho is my favourite SD album, hey I like them all but for me Gaucho is the one, whole album is good. Third world man that mood it sets and the guitar solo is fantastic. Even the cover with that copy of a painting is class.
Also, again using some of the greatest session musicians on the planet. Steve Gadd makes a return visit on Glamour Profession, My Rival, and Third World Man.
You deserve all the respect for doing your channels the way you want to. Those haters don't define you, their comments are reflective of them, not you. I love your reaction videos, please continue as long as you want to.
THANKS AGAIN! Love your gggreat Enthusiasm and Love really for Steely Dan!! : o ) Life Long fan here!
Keep on doing your thang brother. Haters gonna hate. 👍
Nice to see somebody get around to My Rival & Third World Man, both highly underrated songs
DramaSyed you should check out the "Lost Gaucho" sessions featuring incredible songs like Second Arrangement, The Bear and Kulee Baba which are actually better than most of the final record
Gaucho honestly took me a couple listenings but it became one of my favorites
Love your reactions. Keep em coming. Those who don't, know where to hit it.
Thoroughly dig your insights .
Spot on with the Dan .
Undeniable mastery .
This is a reaction channel...what do people expect! Everyone has their own likes and opinions....and we want to truly hear your opinions. With your background in music and production I think you give great in depth reactions of what you think of the music. After your reactions, if I liked a song...I usually liked it more and if I didn't like it going in, I had a greater appreciation for it.
Love Ur reactions brother Mike... Keepem Comin 🤘🏼🤠🤘🏼🤠🤘🏼🤠🎤🎵🎤🎵🎤🎵🎧🎧🎧🎧🎧
Check out Donald Fagan's other songs Snowbound, On The Dunes and Mona! Great reactions and in-depth analysis on Steely Dan's songs. Love it!🤙
Give Two Against Nature a listen
