And pop. Fagen has talked about how listening to ad jingles and other popular music influenced him growing up. It's telling, I think, that despite the musical fusion, elaborate arrangements, at times arcane lyrics, and perfectionistic production values, that the music is just so listenable - ear candy.

Steele Dan is that artist you listen to when you are tired of hard rock and such. It’s very mature and very unique.

@rustyshackelford4503 Год назад

Amen. I just spent about 5-6 years listening exclusively to modern heavy prog metal. Lots of aggression and complexity. But I’ve kind of grown stale of it and this 70’s jazz/funk is the exact wavelength I’ve migrated over to. The sounds are so gooey and perfect. So much life to it. After a while heavy music (while it has merits) starts to sound fairly robotic

@soakedbearrd Год назад

@@rustyshackelford4503 yeah me too, even though I still love me some Opeth (they have many shades) and mastodon (as good as pop metal but with substance), I find myself mellowing and jamming with bands like steely Dan more and more lately.

@helgar791 2 года назад

What is a Black Cow? It's basically a root beer float using Kahlua. The adult version however uses bourbon. Rudy's (Bar and Grill) still exists here in NYC on 9th ave between 44th and 45th. Then and now it is essentially a dive bar. In the 70's 42nd St was a hub for pro's and johns, and Rudy's was often where pro's, musicians, artists, and actors would mingle. On the bar when he sees her are her remedies (alcohol and drugs), and her book of numbers, so she was more a high priced pro. The pros also strolled from 26th and 11th ave to the Javits Center on 34th and 11th Ave down to 42nd, down to 7th Ave. There were many on the east side on Greene St from Houston to Spring St as well. He is a man who was hopelessly in love with a prostitute that cannot change her ways, and his many attempts to change her have proven fruitless. This is now perhaps his goodbye to her.

@joesmith8725 2 года назад

Its jazz rock, big in the '70s and '80s. Black Cow is a drink, yall correct. It's like a White Russian, but creamier and a little different. Kahlua, chocolate ice cream, liquor, root beer and other stuff. Also the saxophone solos were common during the '70s, '80s and parts of the '90s. Many good asongs from Steely Dan, check out more of them. '70s and early '80s. Lounge music for sure and relaxing, sophisticated lol. Music for the chill bars or coffee shops. BTW, Lots of Steely Dan songs were sampled by rappers. It's smooth jazzy, funk rock music. This song for instance was sampled back in the late '90s/early '00s, East Coast/NY group, Lord Tariq/Peter Gunz "DeJa Vu (Uptown Baby!)" and other songs/artists. But, Lord Tariq/Peter Gunz was a huge hit and very fun song/video and at night clubs.

@stevenblock9712 2 года назад

Steely Dan already had about five years of great songs and albums before they switched it up to the jazz-pop sound of the Aja album (1977), one of the greatest and most original albums you can hear. It had three singles but all of the songs on the album are equally good. It was the creation of the two founders of Steely Dan and an all star collection of studio musicians. The title song, Aja, is really something special. Donald Fagan has been an amazing writer/producer as a solo artist and made more great albums.

There’s a great documentary on “the making of Aja-classic albums” with Fagen and Becker. There are some great “inside baseball” stories- like running thru 12 guitar players to solo on a single song… and all the parts and multiple takes they made Mike McDonald sing on Peg. F**n hilarious!

I've friends from the '70s, who didn't like em back then, but later on became huge fans.

A Black Cow can be an adult beverage or a kids beverage. One uses bourbon and the other doesn't. For the adult version: Combine 1/2 cup of evaporated milk with 2 cups of root beer (your choice on the brand but we used A&W Root Beer for this particular one) and 2 ounces of your favorite bourbon. Mix then split between two tall cocktail glasses. Add ice to fill the glass. Drizzle chocolate sauce on the top. Serve.

Per Songfacts "Black Cow" has a number of lyrical interpretations: a troubled relationship, an ode to self-doubt, a commentary on nightlife, a reference to Hindu culture (cows are sacred). Or it could be about Thelonious Monk, the American jazz composer who is often regarded as the father of bebop. In the Classic Albums episode on the album Aja, Donald Fagen and Walter Becker, perhaps showing their wry sense of humor, described the lyric as "self explanatory," but did offer some insight as to what they had in mind. "It starts out with this guy talking about this girl he used to be involved with," Fagan said. "She's sitting at a counter, and he describes her behavior and habits, and out of that you begin to see her character and their relationship." He added that the "black cow" is a beverage - depending on where you live, it can be a milkshake or a coke float (like a root beer float, but with coke). But it's something you would get at a soda fountain, where the song takes place. In the '50s, Fagen and Becker spent a lot of time at these soda fountains.
