@@johngilmer6782 I haven’t smoked weed since the 90s. The sinsemilla we started getting would just plaster me into a chair. I’d get polio symptoms. It just wasn’t fun anymore to sit like a bump on the sofa. I miss the goofy high from Colombian Gold or that blonde hashish you could roll into a tobacco cigarette. I don’t think either was around by the mid 80s. We used to drive down to Pico and Hoover and cruise side streets until we found a guy on a corner. It was good Spanish practice, but one buddy got a serious summer landscaping job and learned to speak Spanish really well. When he was with us, the bags were a little bigger and everyone was more chill. We wouldn’t just make a purchase and go. We’d hang out. Turns out the guys on the corners in that area were Guatemalans and pleasantly surprised that middle class mostly white kids could speak Spanish. I went back there years later and there was no weed for sale. It was all cracked out. Completely different vibe, and not a place where you’d hang out with the corner guys holding up a wall.

From Songfacts: In this song, an older man is seducing a 19-year-old girl. He's a bit conflicted, as her inexperience frustrates him when she doesn't even remember Aretha Franklin. However, on this particular night and with the help of some Cuervo Gold tequila, everything is wonderful. Steely Dan used a variety of musicians on their albums. On this track, Hugh McCracken played guitar, Rick Marotta was on drums, and Victor Feldman and Steve Gadd added percussion. Walter Becker also added guitar, and Donald Fagen played the Fender Rhodes electric piano and the synthesizer. Roger Nichols, who was one of the engineers on the Gaucho sessions, fashioned a drum machine they used on this track. Dubbed "Wendel," it was one of the first of its kind, and it allowed them to record Rick Marotta's drum parts and play them back with perfect precision. The LM-1, which was the first programable drum machine sold to the public that sampled real instruments, was introduced in 1980, the year Gaucho was released, so many assumed that's what Steely Dan used. They didn't, but there was a connection. Roger Linn, who created the LM-1, told Songfacts: "By coincidence, Roger and I had both bought our first computers in around 1975 at a place called Computer Power and Light in Studio City, an area of Los Angeles. Wendel used that same computer and a early but high-quality digital audio interface, running a program he had written to enter simple looping beats on the screen. A very creative and talented guy."

The drum machine, called Wendel, used here was developed by Roger Nicols Steely Dan's engineer after Walter and Donald were wishing that there was a machine that could play more perfect beats. Roger said give me the money and I can build one. In 1978 he developed Wendel as a sampling drum machine and audio sampler 125kHz/12bit and in January 1979 Wendel was used on Steely Dan "Gaucho" album for drums and percussion. I've read that they still credited, and paid, the drummers who provided the samples.

Donald isn't singing about cocaine, he's singing about weed--fine Colombian weed. Columbian was common slang for weed in the 70s--along with Panama Red and Acapulco Gold--and everyone knew he was singing about a mellow evening of Tequila, weed, and sex. Ah, good times. According to Wikipedia, that is *not* Michael McD. Wow, they sure captured that sound! And that is Don on the synthesizer solo. As I heard it, that is a keyboard with a pitch-bending wheel to bend the notes--Don does use breath-controlled keyboards, but they don't bend pitch. That's what I heard, could be wrong.. You guys understand so much about these songs--meaning, structure, arrangement... Thanks for sharing, listening with you is a joy.

Also, the sound you guys were trying to figure out around 7:00 is made by Donald Fagen blowing through an attachment (looks like a kazoo, but can't remember the name this early in the morning) that is attached and run through the synthesizer. It was an "instrument" first popularized by Stevie Wonder a few years earlier.

It's SO strange that a lot of my friends are the same way...... they say they don't know who Steely Dan is. Then I fire up a track like "Hey Nineteen" and they immediately say..... " Oh, I didn't know this was Steely Dan". There were certain songs that I call "radio friendly" and this is for sure one of those songs. I have wondered through the years just WHY so many claim to not know who Steely Dan is. I came up with a few possibilities..... the core of Steely Dan is Fagan and Becker who most people have never heard of. Very few of their songs are what I would call "main stream" songs. I don't believe that in most cases they ever set out to make a "Hit Record". Another thing... for years they never toured and were basically considered a "studio" group. At any rate... thanks for reacting to the Dan. Great job, guys. Take care.

From Wiki: Donald Fagen stated that he and Becker told recording engineer Roger Nichols: "'It's too bad that we can't get a machine to play the beat we want, with full-frequency drum sounds, and to be able to move the snare drum and kick drum around independently.' Nichols replied 'I can do that.' This was back in 1978 or something, so we said 'You can do that???' To which he said 'Yes, all I need is $150,000.' So we gave him the money out of our recording budget, and six weeks later he came in with this machine and that is how it all started."[27] Nichols named the drum machine "Wendel".[26] Subsequently, Wendel was awarded a platinum record.

at that time Columbian was the primo weed. We all came up on Mexican prior to that. It was a huge leap in quality.

Hey Nineteen es la primera canción de Steely Dan que escuché. He visto varias de sus reacciones a las canciones del grupo. Veo que disfrutáis con cada uno de ellos... ¡Los envidio! Gracias por hacerme viajar de regreso a esa sensación de descubrimiento.

Really like your channel guys...dropped most reactor channels I subscribed to...like your in depth analysis and candor! Of course, reviewing one of my favorite artists doesn't hurt either...lol...keep up the great work...as I mentioned in another post, a must do is Pretzel Logic song...very bluesy...you'll love it!❤️
