      Ain't that the truth. Only other experienced musicians truly realize just how complicated and intricate this song is, and how daring it is to try to cover it. I've listened to just about everything LLB has done, most of it countless times, and I'm just as amazed today as I was the day I listened to them for the first time, at just how good they are at what they do. It's just astonishing.

    To the untrained ear, this piece sounds like it would be an easy cover for a band. Any one could do it and do it well... Right?

      He was close to nailing that solo. It actually starts with the pre bend. It doesn’t slide like that. There were few things that were wrong but it was very good. This guy however nailed Kid Charlemagne and that is very impressive. That solo is much harder than Peg.

    Admittedly, I’ve never heard this song or anything by Steely Dan. However… After watching the video the other day with your keyboard player saying he finally had to give up on the sheet music and just learn every note by ear, I said I have to check that out. I am pleasantly surprised! This stuff is funky, jazzy, cosmic, and bluesy all wrapped up in a nice 70’s style R&B type song. And I was born in the 70s and I’ve always loved 70s R&B. Killer clean lead guitars at the end of this as well, and the drums are awesome because it’s like funky style drums, which when I get behind a drum kit that’s how I play, Off time stuff, different time signatures etc. last but definitely not least I have to point out this lead vocalist, like I said I’ve never heard this song or anything by Steely Dan and that wasn’t by choice…growing up with a bunch of brothers I basically listened to everything they listened to, so two bands I really didn’t listen to growing up were Steely Dan and Iron Maiden, but this lead vocalist between the killer tone, little bit of raspiness…and the unique range I thought it was absolutely awesome so I’m gonna listen to some more Steely Dan later on lunch. I’ve got to get my quick morning fix of a Def Leppard tune and then a heart tune by LLB before I head into work. Thank you guys! 🙏
