Brooklyn Charmers - Kid Charlemagne (STEELY DAN COVER) In Studio Performance

[@warrenguitar]

Excellent, outstanding! 😎

[@wryanddry2266]

thumbs up for people who care about musical competence

[@mrfester42]

Competence? You damn them with faint praise.

[@amercadodf]

That bass... THAT BASS!!! "Is there bass in the band?... Yes! There's bass in the baaaand"

[@lokilxix]

Love for the bassist backing vocals too.

[@hamishmcdog48]

@@lokilxix Yea that guy can play. I'm a bassist but stand in awe as my cats are my only audience most of the time. He's pretty damn good and smooth.

[@graemeyetts3465]

The bassist was very good and had it down beautifully. The drummist impressed me, too!

[@dougshankle7946]

Nailed that solo..one of the best solos ever put on tape in my humble opinion.

[@BrooklynCharmers]

Absolutely.

[@bdub440]

Absolutely. With the clean sound that solo has to be spot on. Very nice.

[@davekyle6096]

Note perfect for sure but note picking nor sound. Just goes to show how uniquely takented. Larry Carlton and his semi-solid Gibson was...

[@canesd]

@@stevemd6488 C'mon he nailed it. Live. Period. You just couldn't help yourself. ROTFL. Different pickup?

[@canesd]

[@bobbydelsapio8143]

Amazing bass line.....smokin...

[@kevo7075]

Q: Is there gas in the car? A: Yes, there's gas in the car

[@andrewtrotter9023]

You mean “cahhh”.

[@jdotoz]

There was, in fact, not a lot of gas in the car.

[@guitarkis4969]

Probably my fave Steely Dan line/lyric! Call and response, so clever

[@davegrier523]

How comforting to know Steely Dan is in good hands. That was FANTASTIC! It does an old heart good I tell ya.

[@twoblacklabs904]

To Sean Briskey, the guitarist recreating Larry Carlton’s infamous, world class solo, note for note: incredible! I’m so very impressed. All you guys deserve way more KZbin subscribers, and I’ll do my part to spread the word among my fellow Dan Fans...

[@mcren6781]

It wasn’t note for note. Idk what that crap at the end was

[@martinturvey5057]

Amazing, one of the hardest solos to play

[@SamAstor]

That guitarist absolutely slayed.

[@guitarkis4969]

Probably my favorite SD song, and cover by you guys....so far!

[@toddmcmahan5582]

One helluva band

[@rickeybuttery2450]

Killer! :) 😎 All there stuff is killer Posted by Chillie aka Cool Pop - 5/2023

[@sheilarosenthal9288]

WOW. NAILED IT. So impressive to see such talented, awesome musicians, and then they have vocal chops to boot, which is like a huge dollop of whipped cream and cherry on the already delectable cake.

[@geryloftis7985]

OUT FRICKING STANDING; I have seen a lot of bands cover Steely Dan hits in my time, I can honestly say one of the best, if not the best I’ve seen, vocals, guitar solo, keyboards, note for note, spot on. I was waiting for Michael Macdonald’s voice to come in on the background vocals. Good job.

[@hrcnsfan]

Wow! Absolutely fantastic!

[@rileyjackfansmithandjones8238]

Dont EVER stop sharing this Music! Really tight, Musicianship!Thanks to the WHOLE TROUP! That Larry Carlton effort IS TIMELESS EPIC!

[@petersymes8467]

Couldn't be any better and I have been listening to this song since the 70s.

[@paulsalomon27]

SUPERB cover of that guitar solo!

[@Boddissatva]

Nice vocals too. Nice to see young people doing this so well.

[@BrooklynCharmers]

Thanks! :)

[@NotForLongNFL]

Nice name

[@PFERRO]

I ran into Colin’s dad out in the wild and I told him how much I loved his work as well as his son’s. His dad is a very well musician, writer, and producer that has written hits for his groups as well as others. Chances are you probably know them.

[@AdrianPG63]

But ..such proficient musicianship should be put to use creating your own music ....​@@BrooklynCharmers

[@briancoyle8605]

I saw these cats last nght at the Wildey in Edwardsville, they are an outstanding band, Tight, really tight. Great show, everyone needs to see this band. One of the best shows I've seen all year.

[@BrooklynCharmers]

Thanks so much Brian!!! Hope to see you again in February!!

[@stephenhane9792]

We are going to the Wildey show this year (2024), you guys sound awesome!

[@liveclassictunes]

I've seen a few Steely Dan cover bands in my time... nothing compares to these guys... just awesome.

[@chrishoey61]

As a life long Steely Dan fan and this being one of my favorite songs this is one of the best covers I've ever heard!!!!

[@drumhd1]

Wow!!

[@heshboppins]

Great voice, harmonies, excellent musicianship. Tight. Enjoyable. I'd pay to see ya...

[@susanoskvarek5322]

Well, you can because they tour. I saw them for the second time last night and I'm telling you you will never be disappointed. These guys are awesome.

[@mrfester42]

Yes indeedy!

[@ddsfard]

What a fantastic cover...true to the original. One of my favorite songs. Thanks!!!

[@robertamato358]

This is my new favorite band! These guys are the real deal. A Steely Dan tribute band is a most noble pursuit. Becker and Fagen would be impressed and flattered.

[@donzxcv1]

one of cleanest and most accurate covers of Steely Dan .. I'm actually using this one to learn the song, same key as the original, and cleaner

[@rva11]

I am blown away gentlemen. Thank you for bringing a live performance feeling right to my tablet. You added a liiitle magic to my evening!

[@GuitarGangsta]

Top notch!!!

[@matthewthornton6526]

That frikkin bass line though...

[@Gnosis2078]

Must be some competition when it comes to who gets to play what solos!

[@yt555555]

Best cover of this song I've ever heard. Nice.

[@toddmcmahan5582]

Bass player.rules

[@jamesmorrison7847]

Damn! You covered that Larry Carlton solo note for note. I'm impressed.

[@jetviser]

Larry Carlton would approve. Nailed the solo.

[@leesadleridge]

When i clicked the video, I'll admit that my expectations were low, but as soon as his voice hit, my jaw dropped!!! Absolutely outstanding cover of this classic! And i still can't get over how close your voice is to Fagen's, amazing.

[@ThomasCalifornia]

And his mannerisms even mimic Donald Fagen’s. These kids probably weren’t even born when this song came out. Amazing!

[@susanoskvarek5322]

You need to see them live. They are beyond amazing.

[@raymontoya6734]

Wow! Just stumbled across you guys. I'm a product of the 70's. SD is one of my favorite groups. You guys are excellent. You and Leniod and Friends are the best cover bands I have heard.

[@PhilUKNet]

The best SD tribute band? If not, then probably the most faithful to the original recordings. Really been enjoying listening to this band's SD covers.

[@BOOREK100]

Damn that solo at the end was tasty, flawlessly executed

[@TomDoingItWrong]

Colin sounds just like Donald Fagan. Wow!

[@johns1159]

As a seasoned musician, it didn't take me long to figure out how authentic, talented and well rehearsed this band is! Fantastic job!

[@hexicanpapa1930]

Seen these kats in Cleveland, OH 2 weeks ago......PHENOMENAL performance, probably the best sounding show I've ever been to in this type of setting as well. I literally discovered these guys about 6 days before I looked up their schedule to find out they were a few hours away from me that week......SO glad we made the trip to see them perform these epic hits that are, as a guitar player myself, extremely hard to execute. And to recreate it live for people is a genuine treat to the ears ! Thanks fellas, hope to see ya in western PA soon !!!!

[@camerontaylor1255]

That was outrageously good - put a big smile on my dial.

[@RRDJs2]

Doing Steely Dan RIGHT!

[@kevinfaris4840]

I am incredulous they carried it out to my discerning ear for Steely Dan! Very, very good!

[@AStanton1966]

I saw these guys in Broad Brook, CT about 1.5 years back. They did a good job.

[@diggerthegroundhog8799]

You guys are so tight. Best Steely Dan cover band anywhere No comparison at all.

[@hd4100]

Great drummer!

[@tjl5419]

The steely and the dan would like this 🎷

[@connorboushell2295]

I think I’ve watched this 1,000 times

[@aldolagana7126]

Bravissimo! Brooklyn certainly owes the charmer in me ;-)

[@sonjoestar3613]

Keyboardist has sunglasses on in a very well lit studio.. cool:) u guys are awesome, wish i had a band like u

[@davidkyle2073]

Best professional SD cover band I’ve heard, and I’ve heard dozens. Bravo!

[@MikeFloutier]

So good to see the music of Steely Dan in such good hands; well done and thank you! 🎸etc🍾❤️

[@spiritgover4223]

The musicianship here is just incredible. And the guitar solos achingly beautiful. I actually like this version better than Steely Dan’s!!

[@stevenscharf8822]

All great. Impressive backing vocals.

[@Behine.DeChilis]

Outro solo was very tasteful and unique. Bravo!

[@tcfalcon2000]

Very nice. The guitar slinger nailed those solos…

[@shutupandshave]

That bassists grin when he hit the low note at the beginning. Pure joy.

[@tonydelaval4184]

Excellent cover, everything's in place, sound, interpretation,style 👌 A great tribute to one of the greatest bands ever 😍

[@Czyszy]

This cover is *perfection*

[@Cyberfender1]

That was one of the best covers of The KId. Bravo!

[@spiritgover4223]

You must buy tickets to see BC do The Royal Scam lol live for this song along. Just incredible!

[@pmomalley]

Freakin nailed it. Wow , great groove and playing!

[@chaseturner6884]

This isnt the hardest song to cover but it's not the easiest either.most covers I've heard of this amazing song were cool and some sounded quite well but never quite the same as the original studio version.which I understand people have their own styles and put there own twist on it but to be able to play such a intriquite song in the style of the artist who wrote it and almost entirely the same with the exception of a few parts shows great musicianship and a great ability to really listen to what the original musicians are doing. and to pick it apart and use there musical knowledge to go into the studio and remake that sound almost exactly like the original,especially a sound like this masterpiece also shows a great amount of patience and dedication into music itself, and not just on the level of music in it's basic form,not just as an art form but really throwing yourself into the science of the music and the technical parts of it,really learning and retaining the music in every aspect.i love to see that there's still musicians that really invest themselves into the sound and what you can do with it.brooklyn charmers,I applaud you.love the sound love your energy,love your precision on this cover.keep it up.never stop lovin the music,and love from Savannah ga.🤙🤙

[@rabooey]

Damn. That was fantastic. You guys rock. Thanks! 🤘

[@Allright21]

Great job! Solo was terrific!

[@bradbradshaw7995]

WOW !

Damn, great vocals, great overall rendition of Kid Charlemagne!!

[@47lets-go-brandon]

Awesome! Well done! Found you looking for "Kid Charlemagne Covers".

[@terrykuiken2976]

Guitar, vocals, key board, percussion all perfection! Love this!

[@watchmewatch9]

Bravo....Bravo...

[@tjl5419]

They do steely and the dan very proud 🎷

[@paulmoran3482]

🎼👌

[@micaelasaathoff3935]

My favorite steely Dan cover band ! Nailed that solo man!

[@cynthiamartinez4480]

Dan Fans understand the creativity & musicality of Steely, so BRAVO!! Great cover! DOCTOR WU anything on Katy Lied , Please!

[@KRIC]

A tribute to Owlsey , the bay area acid king and manufacturer in the 60s . Great job guys !

[@mytubex2]

Simply outstanding.... all of you!

[@WhoAreYou-Uk]

Spectacularly good chaps - brilliant

[@boatdetective]

Hey how about some recognition for Sean's outro solo? Really tremendous work. Yes, one needs to be respectful of the original material, but the sign of a true musician is that you can at the same time add to that legacy. Has Larry Carlton heard you play?

[@philipbellino280]

Unbelievably awesome

[@andy196414]

Didt realise I was a Steely Span fan until I heard you guys! Awesome songs great chops great tunes good voices. Love it.

[@mozdickson]

Young dudes nail Dan. Nice!

[@chrisgulbranson5867]

Best covers of sd I've seen so far. Dare I say some better than the originals.

[@sirgaryo]

Amazing ! 😍🎸👌🔥🔥🔥

[@charlesloftis2920]

Geez Louise... that was awesome.

[@mbolduc]

Beautiful! Really nicely done, I got a little worried when I realized the bass player was going to have to do a McDonald but goddamn did he pull it off

[@jeffreywinkle8162]

Smokin'. SO GOOD.

[@swiftlabbuildstuff]

Fan-freaking-tastic. Very well done gents and so appreciated.

[@leonardfink3411]

Yes, there’s gas in the caaaar

[@timothytimothyarts395]

Nailed the vocals….. good job guys….not a easy song.

[@jackkear6475]

The dude that had the fucking HONOR of busting out the closing guitar on Kid fucking NAILED IT. love!

[@mauriziomedici4010]

Well done guys. You perfectly nailed it❤ hi from italy

[@zswqade3q24]

Wow

[@Sharklicker2000]

Damn... if I closed my eyes...

[@jmg3487]

These dudes did excellent

[@RMR1]

Tasty. Really nice -- flawlessly performed with a distinctive flair and with an absolutely monster version of one of the best guitar solos in rock. And an equally ridiculous guitar outro.

[@greggendicott]

Excellent cover of a great Steely Dan song. You nailed the Larry Carlton lead. So good. Subscribed!

[@TheMacasso]

yes guys - top TASTE!!
