The saxophonist nailed the solo! Nearly played like the original version...while competently AND completley performing it with feeling and personal ownership. Great cover of a beautiful song.

I didn't think The back up singer girls didnt quite the saprano pitch as originals but the song has always been one of my very favorites.

@juliocesarbmi9556 2 года назад

just like the lyrics of the song, he plays just what he feels

@StephenCondron-vb4gc Год назад

Everyone but the lead singer nailed it. Shit he was crap. I sing first tenor and I would be ashamed of such a performance.

@ronaldwilliams6927 Год назад

Donald and the late Walter Becker would be proud! Excellent job guys! Keep doing what your doing .

It is great how Steely Dan brings people together across the generations. A bunch of guys who liked Steely Dan back in the days and two grand daughters to back up the vocals.

@1truthinc. Год назад

I've been listening to these tunes since they were released, play multiple instruments and was heavily involved in production and without a DOUBT, this is one of the best tribute bands I've EVER heard... They not only absolutely nail the orchestration and arrangements, they capture the uber-hipster vibe of Walter and Donald perfectly! Well done!!!

Lead and backing vocals are so, so good, and the tenor solo does Pete Christlieb very proud indeed. Met Pete one summer at Gresham, Oregon's Mt. Hood Jazz Festival and he graciously signed my "Aja" album jacket.

@greenearringsband 5 лет назад

Excellent band. I’d REALLY like to hear the lead singer phrasing as Fagen does, which he does not. No one can sound like Fagen, but the phrasing can be accomplished.

@333pg333 3 года назад

Yep. Agree. He's just putting it down rather than getting it. Even the tempo of this cover is stiff and the drummer is tossing salad. Not wanting to shoot them down. They're all good players and doing a great job but it's just a bit wooden in parts. By comparison check out this Chicago cover band. Superb feel. Plus they're Russian! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6aJR_RBF23E.html&ab_channel=LeonidVorobyev

@brandom1953 2 года назад

You should try playing Larry Carlton or Lee Ritenour guitar parts while simultaneously singing Donald Fagen's lead vocal then we can talk about your preferred nuanced phrasing.
