- Steely Dan - Donald Fagen & Walter Becker interviewed and live Glasgow Sept 6th 2000.
Recorded by me from analogue transmission, on JVC S-VHS VCR, using JVC SV E180 tape at SP, tape archive number 1712 Digital archive 4019
Steely Dan were an American rock duo founded in 1972 by core members Walter Becker (guitars, bass, backing vocals) and Donald Fagen (keyboards, lead vocals). Blending rock, jazz, latin music, reggae, traditional pop, R&B, blues and sophisticated studio production with cryptic and ironic lyrics, the band enjoyed critical and commercial success starting from the early 1970s until breaking up in 1981. Throughout their career, the duo recorded with a revolving cast of session musicians, and in 1974 retired from live performances to become a studio-only band. Rolling Stone has called them "the perfect musical antiheroes for the Seventies"

I just love their music, it`s quite unique and special. I first heard them when I was in digs in garnethill street near to the art school {1975} -all their songs bring back good memories for me.
Wish they would release that show on dvd. Walter-you are missed. Special guy.
@@golds04 This is probably all that exists, I often saw local TV crews at Glasgow gigs, usually there for a few songs then they left.
Donald loosing walter must have been heart breaking
The engineering and production on steeley Dan recordings is second to none.
and you like that Katz is a Gary too don't ya boy ya hea! i hea ya
Thanks Al Schmitt, may you Rest In Peace.
Not really. It's the tunes that is the magic, not the "production".
There are only a handful of bands who have made such timeless music. The Dan is #1.
Excellent piece. The boys were highly talkative, and even a lifelong Dan Fan learned even more about them. Thanks for sharing this.
Glad you enjoyed it
These guy have been telling this story over and over for years. Everytime I see a new interview with them they tell the story the same way without a hint of being sick and tired of rehashing the Steely Dan story. It was good to see them have the career resurgence in their last 20 years together. 2000 on.
Don and Walter. A pair that will beat a full house any day.
Thanks for watching and commenting, so few fans ever bother to do so.
That's for sure.
Becker & Fagen are two of the most talented musicians who created a unique sound all their own. Their music is timeless. RIP Walter Becker.
Their special friendship and mutual respect was really visible in this interview. I’m sure Donald misses Walter a lot
Walter, RIP.
I was at this gig. Always a religious experience seeing these guys.
Yes indeed!
Walter Becker looks like a programmer at Apple in the 90's.
ok so....
More like a UNIX or C-programmer at Bell Labs in the 1970s :D
(But they were the role models so...)
Both of them, right? They both looked like the guys who repair your computer in the back of STAPLES. Thinking musicians musician all the way.
Love how humble Fagan is about his singing. The more years (going on 25) I’ve listened to Steely Dan the more I appreciate his voice and what it adds to the music. It’s the perfect voice for their lyrics.
What a genius chemistry that goes into their records.
Most will never know what a gentle, warm, generous and fun guy Walter was because of his ( and Donalds) carefully cultivated public persona. Rip Walter, thanks for the jam, the hang and beer. Tough life.
Thanks for watching and commenting
Yes ,I’m a Glasgow guy and love them ,very much loved in scotland
so you should and btw we in England love Danny Wilson.
@@bigtwit799two great Danny Wilson albums, pity they disbanded.
Saw the Dan on the same tour, in Birmingham - they were incredible! The likes of this caliber of musicians are very quickly dying out - it’s a great shame!
I saw them later that year in Toronto. The band were on FIRE in 2000. True greatness.
Me too, Simon, same gig. Weren't they great.
Thank you for posting this particularly as the two protagonists are in an informative mood.
THIS is THE Fagan/Becker interview of ALL TIME. Even as a loyal SD fan for nearly 50 yrs, w/every note & every lyric they ever created burned onto my lips & in my heart for eternity, I never knew all I learned here. Bless you for sharing this EPIC, historical video.🙏♥️🇺🇲✌
Im glad you found and enjoyed it, thanks for commenting
Trust Glasgow x
Steely Dan kept me alive through the 1980s
Me too
Yes, listened to their records throughout my college years. Soundtrack of my life.
Their fusion of jazz, R@B, And rock music is still some of the best ever. Also, the production and arrangements were second to none. Still sounds killer on my RF7 III’s. So happy that I grew up in that era..
One amazing thing is that they are mostly self taught musicians. And great story lyrics self taught as well. Totally unique to this very day.
Maybe the best ever? What a wonderful range of music, stories and musicians!
best ever band? I'd agree, look at their catalogue of songs, who's better?
I can hear the music whenever I like , hearing them talk is priceless
So lucky to have been a young musician during the late 70’s/80’s listening to these guys with their eclectic bunch of fellow musicians writing and recording the best music of my lifetime. My sense of entitlement makes me quite emotional when I listen back to this musical genius, makes me feel so so lucky. Thank you guys 🤘😎
Thanks for watching and commenting
Pure gold. Seldom heard them speak so candidly. Thanks for this.
Our pleasure!
wow! This is gold for lifelong Dan fans. We don't know about this interview. The guys are XT-RA open and discriptive about everything we've been asking about but only ever get silence. This is THE best, most open interview I've ever seen by these guys. and believe me, I've seen them all. Thank you. NB
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, so glad you found and enjoyed this.
As Trump or Dave Chappelle would say "Please believe me!"
I agree, this is the best interview I've seen, the jazz background explains the horns, woodwinds and back up singers that give their music so many layers of depth.
@@ScottishTeeVee A fantastic and insightful interview. Well done!
@@georgejack8023 Glad you enjoyed it🙂
Walter Becker produced Flaunt the Imperfection and Diary of a Hollow Horse, two fantastic albums by China Crisis. The Steely Dan influence can be heard in both clearly.
Steely Dan plus Scotland, what a great combination.
Saw them twice in Bruxelles, always saved my mood for months
Wonderful. Thanks ! The best band there ever was. RIP WB
Glad you enjoyed this Mark
The music these 2 created will never be repeated, unique in every way,
Favorite band, Steely Dan. RIP Walter
correct!
Love these guys. The only American artists that make my top 5. SD was my accompaniment during my wild days. Thank you brothers.
Thanks for watching and commenting Kent
Thank you for sharing this obscure Steely Dan-related footage, peace love and blessings to everyone reading, keep that Dan Steely!
One of the greatest modern songwriting duo’s of all time.
What I got from this interview is the magic that happened was never guaranteed to happen but came about by forces that no-one could control. They definitely worked hard to get their songs to their standard and their legacy is as appreciated today as when it first came out.
Saw this tour when it got to Hammersmith. Unreal to be watching Steely Dan after so many years listening to the records. Guy two rows in front of me gasped with disbelief when they intro’ed Black Friday from Katy Lied.
Rest in peace Walter. Love these guys and their incredible music.
Good thing they left the moldy Brill building in NY and headed West. They are two amazing musicians, ultimate smooth jazz/rock fusion. No one comes close to them.
Thank you Mr. Fagan and Mr. Becker! Your names are standing for artistic quality through and through. Thank you for all the beautiful hours of your craft and art. What you did achieve is outstanding, and I assure you that even life you achieved that goal to excellence.
Missed this Glasgow gig unfortunately. They were superb !
This interview and footage is gold for Dan fans. Walter falls silent and becomes a little fidgety when they talk about Gaucho. Probably brought up bad memories. Donald handles that tactfully.
Walter was a fine, clever guitarist. Very melodic and very underrated.
Really, the best of the best.
Thanks for posting! I love these dudes so much. They are almost as entertaining when they're talking as when they're playing music. Their deadpan humour is an art unto istelf, and llifelong Dan fans will relish this My favourit part: when Walter is describing how the touring band dissolved (around 5:40), he's trying to be diplomatic and generous, searching for a word to describe the situation. Then The Don jumps in and almost shouts "Conflict". One of the few times I've seen him (almost) shout. I just about spilled my coffee laughing. Thanks ScottishTeeVee, and thank Walt and Don.
They picked the right Glasgow venue. The sound in there is excellent. I wish I'd been to see it.
I thought I had seen everything on Fagen and Becker, great find.
Thanks for watching and commenting
Superb... thanks for posting this... these guys were responsible for my love affair with the electric guitar🙂
Two great guys who I’ve followed for ever and inspired me to play guitar, thanks for that. God Bless Walter Becker RIP 🙏🏻👍🏻
Thank you for staying close to your music. Big fan
The picture these paint with minimal lyrics are incredible ,
they do a 2 hour movie in a 5 minute song
Man.... would have like to have been at that show. I hadn't seen em since the early 90's.... and never got another chance while Walter was still alive. Glasgow one of my fav places on the planet..... serious music heads..... my kind of people. All the best from Portland, OR ....cheers.
They have a true collaboration. Professional and disciplined but also loose and creative. Really difficult to achieve
My favorite group of all time. Thank you for being.
Walter Becker was such an intelligent quick witted man-to me when he passed away Steely Dan ended-he is my all time favorite musician a lot of people don’t understand how important he was to Donald Gary and Roger Nichols they were the core team that made SD what they were two are now gone
This might be the best interview I have ever seen of them.
Thanks for this, always interesting to here where some of their thoughts turned into songs. I could listen to these guys all day
I was fortunate to be in Glasgow early 2019 to see the Dan, and the trip we made to Glasgow is etched upon my mind... thank you for your enlightening interview and all of the memories that I relive with my well worn vinyl...RIP Walter
I was at that, my first time seeing them live. Steve Winwood in support, what's not to like. I went to take my seat and found a guy manspreading to try to stop anyone sitting on either side of him, I told him one was my seat and he grudgingly moved. He asked if I'd ever heard of Steve Winwood to which I replied in the affirmative, he told me that he was his biggest fan and that Steely Dan were a crap novelty act who'd peaked in the early 70's. During Steve Winwood he'd try to name that song in one and vocally congratualte himself when he got it right. Drink was being taken and he was berating the rest of the crowd as dilletantes and some people were turning around glaring and I was trying to look "I don't even know the guy". Halfway through Deacon Blues he decided to get up and leave and fell down the stairs.
If it was you I hope you had a good night ;)
@@OldSethOnetooth it wasn't me, I'm a massive Dan fan, and finished off with reeling in the years made my day, winwood was good but Donald was great... what a night to remember, I bought my 'Steely Dan t,shirt ' sorry to hear that you were troubled by an idiot
“Etched upon my mind..” Nice one.
@@andrewtrotter9023 grassy arse amigo
Recorded this on VHS when it was on the telly. I was and am a huge Steely Dan fan and couldn't believe that this was being shown on Scottish TV as most people I knew had never even heard of them. I was at the concert in Glasgow. It was, of course, brilliant. Now seen them in the SECC, Armadillo, the Hydro and the Playhouse in Edinburgh. Thanks for posting.
Glad you found and enjoyed this
Wow! Any chance you could post that show! The mix sounds great and the playing is, of course, perfection!!
Great hearing Walter and Donald giving great insights into their whole approach and how they like to keep things fresh with new material. Inspirational, with some very humble comments regarding the early band and how sometimes it was "hit and miss" with performances. For the great players that those guys were, Donald and Walter were on a mission that demanded every single musician to be on point, ,and that required "the best of the best". RIP Walter, you are greatly missed.
Becker & Fagen absolute Legends 🔥🔥😎😎
RIP Walter 🙏
Love this! Thank you so much!
So cool thank you steely dan
I've just seen this brilliant as I was there that night 🌙 Still the concert I've ever seen 😍 😀
I guess you meant "Still the (Best) concert I've ever seen". ?
long time steely dan fan, was just gunna search bio. this pretty much does it. thanks, great post.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for sharing this video. They were amazing. I just wish I could have seen them live they made some real magic with there soun
Glad you enjoyed it!
What a great interview. Thanks, after all these years
I was at that 2000 show . It got shifted from the SECC to The Armadillo . I didn’t have tickets did the SECC but managed to get a couple when it got moved . Saw them in New York that year too just after a lightning storm -gig nearly cancelled as it was outdoor !
Thanks so much for posting this amazing interview.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great interview saw them in the Hunter Valley Australia along with Steve Winwood , was a great show by both SD and Steve Winwood . The sound was perfect musicians as well where great , set list of their best works very memorable show.
Very cool! What great double bill
Thank you so much for uploading this! Cheers from Chile! :D
Glad you enjoyed it!
Incredible interview...thanx for sharing
Our pleasure!
Nice mini doco. Thank you for posting this ( exclamation point)
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you Scotland for this
Good lord.... Nearly 22 years ago to the day, September 10th 2000 if I remember correctly, it always stuck with me cause it was a beautiful clear sunny autumn evening, and also cause 9/11 happened a year later exactly, practically. I was 15, was at the gig at the armadillo. 22 years later I'm 37 and I'm a dad to twin 7 year old girls.
The world has become so different...
Walter becker is long gone (Rest in peace).
Mind truly blown, at how time has disappeared and changed.
Inclusive nature of this interview with many references to the studio and the Boston rag live. Toward the end sounded amazing.
Laughing out loud at midnight about the bit where Donald sounded great with a microphone and in tune
I was at that gig could not believe how big and powerful Donald Fagen's voice is live, I was in heaven
Was at gig with my good buddies 🎤🎸🎹🎷🎺🥁
Was a fantastic night RIP Walter🙏
This is a great interview!
Excellent. I really enjoyed that.
Glad to hear it!
AWESOME interview !!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I enjoy how these guys think alike.
Their minds seem to be interlinked..
They must’ve had a great interviewer here, or they were just in a good mood. They usually seem very held back and shy about themselves
Really excellent stuff. Just finished playing Becker's 11 Tracks of Whack, great album
The grasshopper on the cover of "Katy Lied" reminds me of Donald Fagen but then so does Sam The Eagle from the Muppet Show..... great musicians and arrangers these two despite looking like various creatures.
Thanks for watching and commenting
@@ScottishTeeVee My pleasure.
Excellent! Also corroborates everything they said in the wonderful accompanying booklet for the "Citizen" box set (1993).
Glad you enjoyed this, thanks for taking the time to comment
great to see this thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
God I miss Walter Becker
Excellent piece.❤
Wonderful 🙏😁
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice...Thx.
No problem, glad you enjoyed it
Katy Lied, you can see it in her eyes, but imagine my surprise when I saw you
Legendary guys.
Great listening to them
Very informative! 2020
Glad you think so!
Love these guys!
I've heard they could finish each other's sentences. That's saying something.
pure Greatest Donald Walter
