Their entire CATALOG is gold. Musically and lyrically, their albums were so far advanced over their 70's peers that it almost seemed like they were from another time period. Even now, several decades later, the music still sounds amazing.

Seeing Steely Dan live is a must. I saw them a few years ago when The Doobie Brothers were opening for them. Great concert!!! Steely Dan cannot be placed in any one genre. They are a true fusion band mixing elements of jazz, R&B, soft rock, gospel and reggae. Donald and Walter were/ are true musical geniuses. Been on board with them since middle school when they released Rikku Don't Lose That Number and Do It Again!! With them coming out with The Royal Scam, Aja and Gaucho back to back to back is just sick!! Some of the best music to just ho down the rabbit hole with.

Peg (Aja) was my introduction to Steely Dan back in ‘79 in grade 9. Michael MacDonald’s vocals are highlighted. The title track, Aja, is a vibe, but it is a long song at 7:56 but so worth the listen. It’s smoky, jazzy and very loungy sounding. You should listen to it as well. Don’t let the length put you off. It’s nothing like any Dan you have reacted to previously. It’s cigar and whisky worthy.

Michael Mac did all the background vocals harmonizing with himself in three parts. He said the three parts were so close to each other in pitch that he had a hard time getting it down. Steely was interesting cause besides Becker and Fagen, the two leaders and main songwriters, they alternated different bands and band members throughout albums and songs. Rick, jazz, funk, R and B. They did it all👍👍🙏

This is the legendary song where Donald Fagen and Walter Becker went through half-a-dozen to a dozen (I can't remember how many) lead guitarists who submitted solos for the break in the middle. Becker may even have been one, but the honors finally went to Jay Graydon, whose work you may want to check out. Vintage West Coast rocker. There's a spot where McDonald is singing a harmony part that's a half tone separate from the lead. That's a really really hard thing to do because when you're that close you tend to want to double the lead instead. That entire Aja album is loaded with top notch performances by some of the greatest session and jazz musicians of the time. I'd recommend "Deacon Blues" next.

What? That’s like saying that a turkey sandwich w/ mustard on it isn’t a turkey sandwich! Rock mixed with jazz is still rock. Arguably jazz was 1 of the ingredients combined to invent rock in the 1st place! It was R&B (emphasis on the B), jazz and country. Does the word ‘rock’ fully describe it? No, but that’s true about many songs from many genres. Did rock fans think it was rock? Did their label? Did rock radio stations? Yes, to all 3. Because It’s part of the full spectrum of rock.

I was introduced to this song through my dad. He had Steely Dan's "Aja" album back in the 1970s. "Peg" was one of the singles from that album, along with the songs, "Deacon Blues" and "Josie," which are great songs that you should hear sometime. And yes, that is indeed Michael McDonald on the backing vocals on "Peg." It's one of the reasons why I love this particular track. Michael McDonald is one of my all-time favorite singers. Before Mike joined the Doobie Brothers, he played with Steely Dan as a member of their touring band. I would say Steely Dan's style was more of a fusion of jazz and rock.

A very cool Steely Dan tune which came out when I was a teenager. For a number of years, I thought the lyric was "Hey, it will come back to you" (instead of Peg Lol)

Loved me a lady named Peg back in the day. Always give her a loving thought when this tune comes on. Thanks. It wasn't a foreign movie she loved, it was "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid". Now there's a movie to react to. Thank you.

Steely Dan defies categorizing. If asked what kind of music they play, you can only say, "They're Steely Dan!" Truly a unique sound. Every song is great. Been a fan from the beginning. Love them!

*"Babylon Sisters"* is a sit back with your fave drink and a cigar kinda song! Steely Dan is a total vibe band! Saw them live back in 1993, Dave Matthews Band opened for them. Probably best behaved crowd I have ever experienced in a large venue... of course that might have been due to all the "smoke" going on...LOL!

A junior in college in ‘77 when the album AJA was released on vinyl. I would drop the needle on the Onkyo turntable, don a set of Sennheiser headphones, stretch out on the couch and just listen in wonder to the magic of Steely Dan.

Jeff Porcaro on drums, one of my all time favorite drummers. He was a member of Toto (“Hold The Line”) and a session player on countless great tunes, including Boz Scaggs’ “Lowdown” and “Lido Shuffle”. Rest in peace, Jeff…

3:45- Right on, Amber..Anyone who thnks Steely Dan was just a rock band , look at the sheet music arrangements for thier songs..lots of Jazz chords/changes. On "Peg", you can hear Micheal McDonald on the backup vocals, while the cool guitar work was done by Jeff "Skunk" Baxter, who also played with Doobie Bros and did lots of "Midnight Special" house band work on top of that! How good was Steely Dan? They broke up for 20 years (81), then came back and win The LP of the year Grammy for "Two Against Nature", 2002. That is hands-down talent. Suggestion: the title track to thier '76' LP, "The Royal Scam"

I remember when Circuit Citys still existed, they would use Peg as a speaker demo song. Excellent choice in my opinion because of the dynamics of the track.
