"Reeling In The Years", "Black Cow", "Deacon Blues", "Rikki Don't Lose That Number", "Peg", etc.. They're not in a category. They are a category.

"Kid Charlemagne" will blow your minds.

"When you love a lil wild one, but she brings you only trouble" c'mon. How many of us guys went through this😂

You'll never believe where Steely Dan got their name...

That electric sitar is perfect. Perfect band. Perfect song.

Steely Dan's production is beyond everyone else. If you haven't already, listen to their song "Rikki Don't Lose That Number".

No one’s going to disagree that this is one of the best songs you will ever hear.

Welcome to the world of superior musicianship, melody and harmony.

Great reaction guys! Once you open the Steely Dan box, you can never go back. Enjoy the rest of their catalog now.

Becker and Fagan are the masters of the everlasting groove. Play them all, you won't be disappointed.

Steely Dan has many more gems waiting for you to hear. Their music is complex, layered, dimensional, unpredictable, witty, diverse, and unfailingly musical.....

One of the top bands EVER!

This is also a deep Rabbit Hole! They always worked with the best. Some of the best lyrics ever in music! No one comes close. RIP Walter Becker.

Any evening spent listening to Steely Dan in a grubby garage chain smoking cigarettes, swilling canned beer and playing cards will be one of the best nights of your life. Complex music is oddly such a simple pleasure.

Steely Dan has such a great catalog. Reeling in the Years, Ricki Don’t Lose that Number, Hey Nineteen. The magic continues!

This song is a whole-ass wibe. 😜

You know guys, I've been watching your reactions for a long time now because you absolutely 'get' the music and what it does to you both, is exactly the same as it does to me too. You always know what you're gonna get from a Steely Dan track. Pure musical genius songwriting and performing. They always offer the perfect combination of jazz and rock and they do it like no other band. Sadly, Walter Becker died a few years ago and he was one of the geniuses behind the songwriting and performing, but the likes of Donald Fagan and others have kept the band's incredible musical legacy alive. There's no other band like Steely Dan.

In the 70s and 80s people used to test their stereos to steely Dan. Production is at another level. EVERY song is like this, at this level!

Ahhhhhhh the 70’s....it don’t get better! 😎👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

My husband used to walk around with those big old boom boxes on his shoulder at the beach jammin this...it was mind blowing!

Some of the greatest musicians to ever walk the planet have played on SD albums.

Steeley Dan does not have a bad song.

The 60s and 70s where great bands and great music was played. 50 years later still sounds great!

Don’t Take Me Alive is a killer Steely Dan track 🎧

This is the song that makes one a Steely Dan fan for life! A masterpiece!

FM, Babylon Sisters, My Old School, Bad Sneakers, so many more

You have to listen to "Deacon Blues" which is my favorite Steely Dan song.

As far as Steely Dan goes, you’ve barely scratched the surface. So many great songs. Don’t Take Me Alive Peg Josie Kid Charlamagne Hey Nineteen Deacon Blues Dirty Work Ricki Don’t Lose That Number

Hey Nineteen. Deacon Blues Black Cow. When Josie comes home.

Lyrics from another dimension. Shit this band is a dimension of its own =)

Dirty Work, same album. Thanks for sharing with us.

Ooh, I know you're gonna love this.... gonna watch now!! recommend "Peg" and "Hey Nineteen" for more Steely Dan reactions!!! Rock on guys!! ;)

It only gets better guys... one of the very best bands of all time...

My Old School Kings Fire In The Hole Brooklyn The Caves of Altamira ...All some of Steely Dan's best

Steely Dan - “Night by Night”. Their funkiest track with the meanest guitar solo on any Dan record.

Bro's, Their "Josie", "Deacon Blues" and "Babylon Sisters" are next for you!

"Reelin in the Years", "Rikki dont lose that Number", "Hey Nineteen". in that order.

As you've just learned Steely Dan's sound is a fusion of rock, jazz, blues and R&B to create their distinctive sound. This song incorporates the unique sound of an electric sitar and even has a sitar solo with a melodic and eerie sound giving it a memorial vibe.

The entire album “Can’t Buy A Thrill” is perfection.

Steely Dan is responsible for some of the most intelligent music ever recorded! Their Rock Fusion incorporates many genres allowing them to reshape their sound. They've collaborated with the best session musicians of their time.

"Gaucho" and "Hey Nineteen"

My 13 year old can sing every word to this. We love that she loves the classics!

Reelin' in the Years. Fantastic Steely tune.

For more cool vibe cool guitar Steely Dan songs, I'd recommend: "Peg", "Reeling in the Years", "Josie", "Peg", "Bodhisattva", "My Old School", and "Kid Charlemagne". They have many more great songs, but I think these will give you the best guitar riffs.

Steely Dan is the Champagne of Music. It taste great and it’s bubbly and gets you high!

Steely Dan is your favorite bands favorite band. Deacon Blues, Peg......💜......Do It Again was a great choice

Do me a flavor….and listen to MY OLD SCHOOL.

Steely Dan is just the best. They are your favorite band's favorite band. Do Peg, Black Cow, or Kid Charlemagne

Masterpiece musicians are Steely Dan.

Prepare to say masterpiece about a hundred more times boys! Steely Dan will be a trip that you will not believe.......Enjoy!

This song is an American classic -- it is perfection in every way a rock song can be. Their way of describing American life and all it's complexities is genius. Love how you love their style--- you get it!! Here's my suggestion for more Steely Dan songs : "Any World" and "Midnight Cruiser".... they're both a punch in the gut ..but in a good way. ...😅...🥹

Jazz Rock fusion sometimes with a little blues, a little Latin flair with the best musicians in the world. Lyrics you'll never hear duplicated any where else. Get into the lyrics. They paint of vivid picture, often telling historical stories, like Kid Charlemagne and the Royal Scam. Steely Dan is it's own genre. They're outside the box. Often said to be your favorite band's favorite band.

I'm not sure how many people realize the incredible studio musicians that Becker and Fagen tapped into during the 70's when they were in their heyday. Do the research on these musicians that worked with Steely Dan in the studio. There are bio's where some of these musicians are interviewed and talk about just how much work and rehearsal went into putting the albums together. The proof of the results are in the final product. Absolute bliss. A feast for the senses. And I'm a Queen nut. High praise for Steely Dan indeed. I'm not comparing the 2 musically, I'm suggesting that both bands strove for perfection in the studio. Cheers.

They fill you up like if you are on a desert island bring these guys never get tired of steely dan

THESE GUYS WERE COMPLETELYYYY DIFFERENT PERIOD, THEY HAD THEIR OWN UNIQUE, DISTINCT SOUND! :) AND A BIGGGGG R.I.P. TO THE MULTI FACETED,TALENTED MUSIC GIANT ( WALTER BECKER ) :(

This sing here is from Steely Dan's very first record, from 1972. It's perhaps the most 'Rock' influenced work of their, w/ every next record, they start to insert more and more Jazz elements into their Pop-Rock mixture.

And that’s not even the tip of the iceberg! It’s more like spotting the iceberg from a couple miles out. You all are going to LOVE going down the Steely Dan rabbit hole and I am so here for it! ❤️

Hey Bro’s, there’s no need to understand Steely Dan, just appreciate how damn good they are.

STEELY DAN are gunslingers. High level musicians, some of whom are studio players who just got together to write and play their own stuff. The rest speaks for itself.

You would love their "Dirty Work"

Steely Dan, Yes, ELP, Led Zeppelin, etc. some of the greatest music every written and produced, regardless of genre.

"FM" which was from a 1978 film of the same name

People are naming some really great songs. I definitely think you could deep-dive into all of their records. There are so many great songs! Unbelievable musicians

The Royal Scam next please 🙏

Love this song and reaction. Steely Dan's music is unique in it takes you wherever you want to go based on which instruments you follow. Patiko chilling, listening to one area, while beside him, focusing on another instrument, jamming out!

That was emotional. I love watching you guys react to some of the best music ever made. Wonderful !

So many numbers to explore with Steely Dan. You wont be disappointed with any of them

This was their first hit along with "Reeling in the Years" which is in the RRHOF.

I love the radio hits too, but I still prefer the deep cuts. Steely Dan doesn't have a bad song, and they all sound different. All 82 of them.

That electric sitar solo by Denny Dias is the stand out in this song for me. It's just such a different sound.

Deacon Blue, BarryTown, My Old School, Peg. So many. Also please check out JJ Cale (RIP), the King of 2am music, blues that is smoother than silk.

What a Groove, love watching and listening to you guys....Patrick "The Thinker" & George "The Feeler"...

Say no more, one of the greatest producers of music

This song is not simply 50 years old... it was also on their first album. This is one of these rare tracks that could easily have been a 15 to 20 minute jam session. But back then record companies wanted "radio friendly" 2 to 4 minutes songs. I owned this album on vinyl and I bought it when it first came out. It's a masterpiece of the highest calibre.

Yeah, Steely Dan is highest class✌.

" You'll be on your knees tomorrow..." an anthem for the looser in all of us as we return yet again to the scene of the crime...where the victim and the perpetrator were one and the same...ourselves

I think it's time for Steve Winwood- just roll with it, it's time to dance, Mr Fantasy You can check out his others he has been going for 60 years ✌❤

Great reaction, guys! Steely Dan have so many songs..."Peg"..."Bodhisattva"..."Black Cow"..."Black Friday"..."Night By Night"..."Deacon Blue"..."Dirty Work"..."My Old School"..."Don't Take Me Alive"..."Green Earrings"..."FM"..."Babylon Sisters"..."Slang of Ages"..."Almost Gothic"..."Blues Beach"...too many more...

One of the best intros in music history, from the awesome fender rhodes to the distinctive coolness of Fagen's voice.

Oh ya, Steely Dan had a cool jazzy vibe that sat well in the rock world, soooo progressive. Don't forget "FM", a very cool tune.

Just sit back and let this song soothe your soul

Hi George & Patrick! It's Jen! You seriously can't leave one of these off the list. SD is 🔥 🔥Hey Nineteen (My favorite) Peg FM (No Static) Deacon Blues Black Cow Reelin In The Years Rikki Don't Lose That Number

Play their song "Dirty Work" . You will be glad that you did !

This song is about addictions - Violence, Kinky Sex, Gambling

Steely is the band your favorite band listens to and samples.

Steely Dan is an incredible group. They rarely miss. It's hard to find a bad song on any of their albums.

Steely Dan’s Peg and Kid Charlemagne are absolutely essential listening!

These guys started out as a band that evolved into studio rats! The duo would write music then bring in top notch session players to execute their vision. Because of that they’re the most musical rock group ever, in my book!

This is my favorite Steely Dan song by far too.

Steely Dan…..brace yourself for the ride down the rabbit hole. You’ll enjoy every moment 👍🇦🇺

can't go wrong with the Dan,stacks of great songs.

the Production on this record is so ahead of its time

And this is their FIRST HIT... Many more to come... Nice analogy to Low Spark... Probably my favorite Steely Dan song too and I know the whole catalog...

As one who thoroughly enjoyed this music when it was released, it is particularly satisfying to see it discovered and appreciated by another generation of music lovers.

Steely Dan are the musician's musician.

Does Steely Dan more of this greatness? Yes... i recommend: the rest of their catalogue! :D

My old school...Don't take me alive...Kid Charlemagne . So many, just keep going!!!

Dude on the right is exactly how I act. Exactly

Excellent reaction! More Steely Dan please. "Don't Take Me Alive", "Rikki Don't Lose That Number". You guys are awesome!

Reelin in the Years - Should be next guys. Rock On
