Steely Dan is your favorite band’s favorite band.
without question
Or it might be Sparks... (according to the advertisements for the Sparks documentary). ;-)
Best description ever
Fact!
Well said!
Steely Dan is a band like no other. Check out their songs "Peg", "Rikki Don't Lose That Number", "Black Cow" and "Hey Nineteen", just to name a few. Their production is off the charts.
Also "FM" & "My Old School"
Juts about anything by Steely Dan up to 1981 is great. Other songs not mentioned in this set of comments are My Old School, Kid Charlemagne, Don't Take Me Alive, Deacon Blues, and Aja.
You are right there! Outstanding musicianship, all around.
“Peg” 💕
@@danadnauseam
Deakon Blues is one of my favorites because I played it in High School jazz band. (Trumpet)
Steely Dan is a very, very deep rabbit hole. They were perhaps the most consistently good band in rock. Virtually EVERY song and every album is great.
After their first two albums, Donald Fagan and Walter Becker replaced the rest of the band with studio musicians. You will discover musical perfection in their work, whether drumming, guitar solos, bass lines, horns, or whatever. Production values are through the roof.
Any song anyone recommends is going to be terrific. I have no favorites, so I'll let others make recomendations.
" Mr Steely Dan. Keep it up" - best line I've heard in a reaction video
Kinda like, "which one's Pink?" Lol
This band has two main members. Donald Fagen, and Walter Becker. The rest of the band was made up of some of the world’s finest studio musicians.
At the time this album was made, they were still an actual band. They only went all-studio a few years later.
@@m.gideonhoyle409 yes, in 1974 when Fagan/Becker didn't want to tour anymore, some band members left.
They would try several studio guitarists on a solo until they found the right one
@@alisonstevens2712 perfectionists. the extra level of musical greatness
Many amazing and well know studio musicians were in and out as part of the bands line up; probably the most profound was a handful of the musicians used on the Aja record which blossomed into the band ToTo after that album.
"My Old School" and "Rikki Don't Lose That Number" are a must!
Rikki hits me deep!!!
My old school is fantastic 😁
Don't Take Me Alive and Any Major Dude will Tell You.
Deacon Blues, Show Biz Kids
Black Cow, Peg. Pretty much any and all of the Aja album.
You can search for a hundred years but you'll never find anyone that sounds like Steely Dan. Their album Aja is one of the great masterpieces of the 70's which is one of the great masterpiece decades.
Truth!❤
As a young drummer, I was just smart enough to know that I needed to play along with every Steely Dan song I could keep up with if I ever wanted to be a performing drummer. While I never came close to achieving the mastery of the drummers who played on those songs, I learned so much from them via osmosis that I was able to enjoy being a club drummer for over 20 years. Looking back now I know that learning how to "play in the pocket" was the best lesson I learned, and Steely Dan was the biggest influence for me in learning that...
That's such a great mentality to have re: developing one's skills. You don't have to match other performers note-for-note, but even just trying can flex you into new things.
You're a smart lad.
Well done…🤓
I took the same thing away from them on the guitar ... playing to the pocket
One of the hardest things for a drummer is to simply keep that backbeat going without ever losing the tempo. I know some people will laugh at that thinking of all those amazing drum riffs they have heard, but just keeping the beat without getting antsy and running away with the tempo can be difficult. You get into the vibe and sometimes it can overcome your control if you let it
When you reacted to Hotel California you heard the line "they stabbed it with their steely knives". That was an Eagles nod to Steely Dan, whom they admired. Thank you for your hard work. Rock on!
That’s one of the reasons they mention the group in the lyrics; another was because the Steely Dan song “Everything You Did,” which was released earlier in 1976, included the line “Turn up the Eagles, the neighbors are listening.”
@@lisaray9944 Well I just learned something new from both of you. Thanks!
I always thought "stabbing it with their steely knives" was a reference to lining up cocaine on a mirror with a razor blade. Eh. it was the 70's....
Steely Dan could be described as a two man band filled out by a collective of the most amazing studio musicians ever.
Perfect description. Steve Gadd with some of the greatest drumming ever recorded on Aja.
One of my favorite tracks of all time. YES, those guitar solos, so crystal clear. Always cranked up the stereo to max when this song came on.
my favorite riffs of all time, if I could play this song, I would die happy...... btw, the words are a powerful emotional lookback at a life..
Hey guys,
This singer, song writer (Donald Fagan), is in a genre all his own. Any song from the album "Aja" will be a killer.
🤗❤🥃
Aja is in a rare category of nearly flawless rock albums start to finish.
@@icu___
When I was just a kid, I wore this album out! I loved it, and I was a metal head 😄
But I grew up with a hippie & Motown mom. The lexicon of great music is unsurpassed.
David Palmer was the lead singer on this song, along with Elliott Randall who played the guitar solo the joined by Walter Becker for the duo.
@@lantose
Wow! I'm flummoxed, stupefied, bamboozled. All these years I thought that was Donald Fagan. Thanks for the correction lantie. My mind is officially blown.
@@christopherlopez8541 Christopher! Sorry, but I made a huge mistake on this song as Fagen did sing the versus and was confused (evidently) last night when I made the remark, however, Palmer sang the chorus! That song came out when I was a junior in high school!
There is no band quite like Steely Dan. Actually, none even close. Their albums are used to test audio equipment because they are so meticulously engineered.
Are they rock, funk, jazz, R&B; what?
The answer is yes on all counts.
Advice: don’t listen to anything off their Aja or Gaucho albums until you listened to about 10 of their earlier songs. You’re not ready for it.
Yeah, This album Cheap Thrills, and Countdown to Ecstasy, fascinating group.
@@bkm2797 I’d also say that Pretzel Logic is part of a good, safe introductory period.
Well, we weren't drug heads from the 60's, so we don't connect with this music.
@@CelticSpiritsCoven What? Who asked you?
@@docbearmb No one asked us. You made a comment, we reacted to your comment.
We came from a different country than you, at a different time than you in your prime.
Nobody is born the same and no one has the same life knowledge.
We just don't like this music. But we were at least letting Bro here know that some people don't find it interesting. It was nothing about you.
Someone probably already commented, but Elliott Randall's lead guitar work here is legendary. Number one guitar solo on many different lists.
I was born in 61, I am so glad I grew up listening to the 60's, 70's and 80's! These were definitely the best Decades for Music!
“Deacon Blues”, “Peg”, and a whole list of hits . There’s plenty to react to from these guys
Steely Dan and two happy faces bobbing their heads is golden. Next “Josie” , “Kid Charlemagne” , “Do it Again” and “Hey Nineteen”. Thanks guys❤️👍🏻
Totally seconding Do It Again. I've always loved that song!
Can't get enough of Kid Charlemagne.
See, especially for rap fans like they are, Kid Charlemagne is a must do, since it's been sampled so many times in rap.
With Bernard purdy on drums and Larry Carlton on guitar it's hard to go wrong with Kid Charlamagne.
@@ArtofFreeSpeech Both “Josie” and “Peg” have been sampled heavily by hip hop artists as well. I’d definitely throw “Hey Nineteen” and “FM” into the mix.
Steely Dan was essentially Walter Becker and Donald Fagan (keyboard and main vocals). Plus whoever they recruited as the perfect one to play "that" instrument on "this" cut. The main guitarist on this cut was Elliott Randall, who had worked with them years before in "Jay and the Americans" and Fagan called him all the way across the country and asked him to help on this because he could feel the music and improvise. They had the other parts worked out but it needed something. So Elliott looked over the lyric sheet and asked them to play it through and then he would do it with them. He created an intro on the spot and first time through with them, the guitar stuff he came up with was working perfectly with what they had. The producer, Gary Katz, turned to the engineer and said "You got that?" - and the engineer says No, they said they were just doing a play through. So Katz said Okay, play it again guys, and this time, record it. And they did.
When they finished, everybody was like, Perfect, that's it! And that recording went straight onto the album. Second playthrough, first recorded take.
Later, when someone asked Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin his favorite guitar solo ever, THAT intro is what he named.
Many Steely Dan songs took long hard work and rework. This collaboration was inspired from the first. Destiny.
Steely Dan is one of the tightest groups in the world, combining intricately written harmonies, unrelentingly infectious grooves, and blazing solos played by some of the finest musicians in the world, all bound together in the highest-quality sound engineering possible at the time. They're also, after James Brown, one of the most sampled groups in the world of hip hop, so if that's what you're familiar with, you'll definitely recognize many a groove as you hear more of their work.
Steely Dan... fave rock duo/ studio band. A deep-dive is required. This is one of their FIRST hits. But please listen to MORE of their stuff. You liked this one? You've no idea. You're welcome.
This^^
YES!! 100% on all of that!! :)
@@michaelgilbert197 The Dan fans united! ; - )
@@moanman1776 Woot woot!! Hehe!! ;) ;)
@@michaelgilbert197 SD in duh howse!!!
Steely Dan is a band formed by Donald Fagen (keyboards) and Walter Becker (guitar). Don is singing lead on this one.
Elliot Randall on lead guitar, I was fortunate enough to have met him once.
@@sevadaj I never remember his name. Thanks for adding that.
I listen to Steely Dan more now than I did in the 70s. The 7 albums they made from 'Can't Buy A Thrill' up to 'Gaucho' are the only 7 album run I can think of where there is not one bad track. They are just superb.
Well said
Looks like others have explained Steely Dan, who they are, etc. So fun watching you guys react to this classic. This song, this album is almost 50-years old! It still holds up. They've always had a strong following, but their 1977 Album, Aja, is considered one of the best records ever made. It is a masterpiece of song writing, musicianship and production. Aja is a totally different sound than Can't Buy a Thrill, and really is what became their signature sound. Enjoy!
This a band with so much depth and class. Do It Again from the same album next please
Or "Dirty Work"
Oh honey… you two are about to jump in another rabbit hole! Great job guys !
rabbitholerabbitholerabbitholerabbitholerabbitholerabbitholerabbitholerabbithoerabbitholedumbshitbrainhole
@@jabberbone1 next time you come out of your basement, tell your momma that we said hi.
Steely Dan is one of my most favorite of bands. Several words come to mind to describe them: unique, quirky, sophisticated, artistic, and perfection. They are in a class and league all their own. Their songs can be so completely different from one another in style and feel yet at the same time being instantly recognizable as Steely Dan.
Elliot Randall completely shreds it on the guitar in this song! One of the greatest solos of all time, in my opinion.
And, he did it on the first take!
His solos were monsters, as were those in those in ''My Old School.'' Was the latter song's lead guitar solos done by Skunk Baxter?
@@timtorba0519 Correct. Skunk Baxter played the solo on My Old School. They had such great guitarists playing on their songs, including Denny Dias and Larry Carlton. Love the music!
So many Legendary performers came out of the '70s! We were blessed.
Another of this ilk that I think you would both love is Boz Scaggs "Lowdown".
The band takes their name from a William S Burroughs story. Steely Dan was a seggs toy.
Also Steely Dans “Home at Last”. My all time favorite song. They were known as perfectionists in the studio. Every song is perfectly recorded by the best musicians. I’ve seen them live. Incredible shows!
There is nothing like the bands in the 70's like Steely Dan, Eagles, Kansas, etc for great harmonizing.
Definitely would not put Kansas on the list. But the Doobies, absolutely!
Crosby, Stills, and Nash (with or without Young) should be on that list, too.
And Pure Prairie League
"Steely Dan", the band not the dildo, was the music "high end" stereo stores would play for customers when listening too the best audio systems.
Their "production value" on their entire library has rarely been duplicated.
You couldn't BE more right.
@@MidwestFarmToys That's funny, I only dealt with mostly teenagers of all colors and people in their 20's when my family owned 4 stereo stores in the Tri-State area of Philadelphia back in the late 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's
Steely Dan, Tower of Power, Yes, Rush, Pink Floyd and Chicago were the best bands too hear for low end, midrange and high end frequencies during the 70's.
Speakers like McIntosh, Polk, Harbeth Monitor, Altec, Advent, JBL, Klipsch, Tannoy, Dahlquist and Magnepan to name a few, really shined, especially with "Steely Dan" playing.
@@MidwestFarmToys Far from an empire, but we were in biz a long time.
I'm just saying Steely Dan was 1 of the bands we used for hearing low end, midrange and high frequencies from the speakers we sold, that's all.
I still have 4 speakers we sold back in the day.
Magnepans.
Still sound great playing Steely Dan or Steeleye Span for that matter.
@@MidwestFarmToys My original post wasn't very nice of me saying remove the Steely Dan from your backside.
I'm sorry about that.
I went for "the laugh".
It wasnt funny. Sorry man.
😀😀😀
WOW ! I can't imagine what it's like to hear Steely Dan for the first time, since I've been a fan of the Dan for over 45 yrs. If you decide to check out some more, strap yourselves in, cause it's going to be a wild ride. Their music is like nothing else you've ever heard. Try Bodisatva, Barrytown, Dr. Woo, King of the world, just to name a few.
Steely Dan is some smooth groove and highly under rated
Time to go down the wonderful Steely Dan rabbit hole. Believe me it's the best trip ever 😎😎 do Black Cow And Peg is a must
Love Peg.
I would add "Haitian Divorce" and "Don't take me alive".
rabbitholerabbitholerabbitholerabbitholerabbitholerabbitholerabbitholerabbithoerabbitholedumbshitbrainhole
Love Love Love Steely Dan. So many good songs. Intricate musicianship. A great band to dig deep into. This is an early song from their first album before they got more complicated and intricate.... and they were perfectionists.
Steely Dan is the most influential band of all time that few people have heard of. Try "Black Cow", "My Old School", or ":Deacon Blues" by Steely Dan. ...or maybe my absolute favorite by them "FM" or "No Static At All".
How put a smile on your face the morning ? Play some Steely Dan. Welcome to the planet of the Dan.
👋🏼🙌🏼❤️ Steely Dan was huge for me in high school. And yes, they were an awesome band. You should keep going with Hey Nineteen, Do It Again and Deacon Blues. Rock and roll classics!
Hey Nineteen,love it.
Do It Again, older i get the more true the lyrics seem.
I'm 63 years old and grew up seeing all of the great bands in the 70's, 80's, and 90's. Steely Dan live is the most impeccable musically that I've seen!
My favorite Steely Dan song! Especially now that I'm reeling in the years.
Criminally underrated band.
Dude. Steely Dan is probably the most underrated band of all time. This song is pretty good but it nowhere near showcases the sheer creative power of the band. If you check them out again "don't take me alive" has great guitar work, "Haitian Divorce" has a great rhythm, and "home at last" is a somber masterpiece. The two main members of Steely Dan were Donald Fagen and Walter Becker and the rest of the band was comprised of rotating session musicians. You have no idea how lucky you were to decide to listen to steely dan, they don't make a bad song. Keep on rocking guys!
Underrated? By whom?
@@drobichaud1000 Right. They weren't under rated by anyone that knows music.
@@tragicdeyz2641 yep
@@drobichaud1000 I meant underrated as in not nearly as popular as they should be. People that were around back in the day would obviously know of them but being of a younger generation, I know not a single person my age that has ever even heard of steely dan.
@@TheOneAndOnlyFloridaMan I think a better term than underrated may be less well known or less commercial, but anyone who has listened to them, regardless of how much they like them would have to admire the musicianship.
Finally the great Steely Dan. Peg, Black Cow, Dirty Work, FM. So many more.
Thanks..
Wow...is right. That moment you realize you're listening to something special.
Love Steely Dan. Class act.
Love Steely Dan! My two faves are Hey Nineteen and FM! I think you would love both! Keep On Rockin`
They're a band's band. Musicians have their albums in their collections.
I've seen them referred to as "your favorite band's favorite band" so many times. XD
Lead singer Donald Fagen had a voice that can never be duplicated...ever.
The scariest thing is, that his voice is about the most uninteresting thing about this exquisite song song.
He had a brilliant solo career as well.
This was my vibe in the 80's. I used to play their music over and over.
“ the things you think are useless, I can’t understand…”
Welcome to the Wonderful world that is Steely Dan, I'm sure this will be the 1st of many for you both. I'm 58 and love seeing younger people enjoy a song for the 1st just as I did as a young person many years ago when this first came out. Just great to see the younger generation keeping this music alive! Thanks
Steely Dan is a very worthwhile rabbit hole to go into
I love to see people really digging Steely Dan. You guys are so cute.
The entire Aja album is incredible. Home at Last is my favorite by them.
The title track is my favorite song by the Dan, but you can't go wrong with anything on Aja. It's an album that, for me, is unparalleled in rock history.
Home At Last is definitely a masterpiece!
Walter becker died in 2011
I love Aja. Every song is perfect. 😊
Steely Dan is a band
And are one of the most sampled by rap groups
Try Black Cow and see if you recognize the beginning
Steely Dan has SO many hits from my younger years.
One of the greatest bands of all time...no joke
Yacht Rock !! " Ricky don't lose that number " or " Do it again " there's so many to choose from their excellent catalogue ❤️
Also my favorite SiriusXM channel!!
You just opened up a can of some of the greatest funk, R&B, and Jazz fusion music you'll ever listen to. Please continue with more of this Band.
A request please,
of another Steely Dan song. "Josie." You'll be a Steely Dan fan after you hear that song. The song you just reacted to, was their first hit, (1972) that began a four decade long journey of greatness.
This music takes me back to the 70s. Was a beautiful time to be young and alive.
Steely Dan is a deep and fantastic rabbit hole!!!! They will improve you life by leaps and bounds!!!👍✌😁
Steely Dan is the personification of musical excellence, technically and sonically it is beyond compare!!!
Look up the song " Do it again " and " Bodhisattva " you'll be blown away.
Maybe my favorite Dan! Bravo you guys are awesome! Have a sparkling day! 👍🌻👏🌟❤
Steely Dan Never disappoints. Sit down and listen to the album AJA. Straight through. You don't have to do a video. Do it for your own edification. And yes, they are still your favorite bands favorite band.
It's a vicarious pleasure so enjoyed watching you react to this wonderful music for the first time, this is one of those groups where you can't find a bad song in their catalog.
Great choice! Steely Dan - Black Cow, Do It Again, Peg, Hey Nineteen, FM and Ricky Don't Lose That Number!
2 east coast geniuses couldn't find the sound they wanted. So they came to the West Coast basically told everybody what they wanted to hear and they played it. Friend of mine Larry Carlton was there with them. So I was lucky enough to hear the original tracks. After all everybody came to my house. Because I had and still do UREI JBL AMPS &UREI 813 BX speakers which is what they were recorded on.
Deep, DEEP rabbit hole with Steely Dan …. Enjoy it all because it is all unique and impossible to categorize.
I love the songs you guys pick. All classic songs from when I was young speaking of classic songs when you going to play tobacco road by Edgar and Johnny Winters live from 1970 I'm still waiting I'm going to ask you everyday too one or even Frankenstein live 1973 by Edgar winners The man's a musical genius
Come on guys making old man's day LOL I love your show
Steely Dan’s, MY OLD SCHOOL, JOSIE and PEG are awesome.
I'm LMAO when you asked Amber "So you don't know Steely Dan ?" because of the origin of where the bands name comes from .....
the dude who played the guitar solo, Elliott Randall, was a session guy who came in near the end of the session when everything was pretty much done, sat down and did the entire song in one take!
Wonderful band. In the Hotel California song you covered last week, the line "They stab it with there Steely knives but they just cant kill the beast" is a playful jab at Steely Dan.
My favorite steely dan track is “fm” or “my old school” or “do it again” or………
My favorite Steely Dan track is whichever one I listened to last.
"My Old School" is a banger.
FM... no static at all😁
Steely Dan was awesome in the 70s and 80s. Must listen to their album Asia, everything on it was amazing.
Elliott Randall's guitar is forever iconic.
This is one of my favorite song growing up. I'm nearing 50. =D So prayers to me as I was in a car accident on the 3rd of June. I have no car, and two boys with autism and one of them has other challenges. just pray I get a new car next week. Thanks.
.
🙏
Prayers sent.
@@territimmerman140 thank you so much. Applied for a job last week. Hoping to hear from them soon.
If this is your first reaction to Steely Dan, you both are in for a real treat! Their catalog is amazing, and a listen to the full album of "Aja" (pronounced Asia) is a must. "Reelin' In The Years" was one of their earliest hits. The best way to listen to Steely Dan is chronologically in order of all of their recordings to get the full scope of their evolution as musicians. Congratulations, you discovered ELO recently, now you've fallen into the Steely Dan rabbit hole! edit: If you want to know where the name "Steely Dan" came from, read "Naked Lunch" by William S Burroughs. 😉
Steely Dan another GREAT band from High School for me...Sooo Many hits from them...another of my favorites!! Timeless Music
Interesting side note: That line from the Eagles song Hotel California that says "They stabbed it with their steely knives......" is a reference to Steely Dan, as the two bands had a friendly rivalry in the early-mid '70s.
If you're going to do Steely Dan you have to do Deacon Blues. Roll Tide!
WOOP!! Roll Tide!
“They call Alabama the Crimson Tide, they call me Deacon Blues”, love that line
Brings back memories of the late 70s and my teenage years here in Bama.RTR
Screw the Tide! I want a name when I lose! ;)
Ahhh. Deacon Blues!!
A Steely Dan is a how can I say this a feminine arousal device. Seriously though this band is who other bands chill to. Their musicianship and lyrics are next level. A HUGE rabbit hole to dive into
@@TheHandyman1999 Yes, you beat me to it -- it's from Naked Lunch, by William S. Burroughs.
I *would* recommend it, even though I tried THREE times to read that thing, but I quit each time about 2/3 into it -- the imagery was just too twisted for me to absorb and remain at peace.
Lol I was a kid then so I never knew that.🤣
@@TheHandyman1999 That's awesome. I feel a connection to you that's almost certainly due to the pandemic, but I like it! Kindred spirits.......
Come on, it's 2021. Steely Dan was slang for vibrator. This band is awesome and I've been told that their production for their music was top notch back in the day.
A cold steel toy.
Incredible band. I've always really like their song "Do It Again"- really cool, smoky vibe with a killer electric sitar solo.
Ok, you’ve just had a whiff of an epic five course meal, in hearing this unforgettable song. Now continue the tantalizing experience by listening to ‘Do it Again’ and ‘Deacon Blues.’ Welcome to a steady diet of mind blowing sound from Steely Dan. Great reaction, guys!
One of, if not the best Steely Dan songs is Deacon Blues. It’s a must.
You MUST react to "Do It Again" by Steely Dan. It's a perfect song.
Other greats are "My Old School", "Peg", "Deacon Blues", "Rikki, Don't Lose That Number", "Hey Nineteen", "Aja", and many others. Walter Becker and Donald Fagen were/are musical geniuses.
@@davidelswick6660 - yeah they are. RIP Walt.
Good choice. The best and most intelligent pop band ever, without equal.
1972 was a badass year for music. I was about to start high school. Loved it then and love it now. Glad you enjoyed it.
Such teenage memories associated with this song!
Yes this was always a fun song lol
you guys make me feel younger than I am cause I'm not old lol
I always loved "Do it again" so much harmony
Elliott Randall's guitar work on this song is perfect
"DO IT AGAIN" has gotta be done next please!
Play" Black Cow " off of the AJA lp. It is used in a couple of rap songs, it was sampled!
Lots of different Steely Dan tracks have been sampled.
Hell, just play the whole damn album. They never made a bad song.
Nothing like some Steely Dan 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Aw the very young years of listening to the radio while doing my homework and putting down the pencil to play air guitar to this. Like you said, fun and playful!
