    One of the many reasons why I’m so appreciative of Atlantic City NJ in the early 70’s not having a black radio station. I was open to SO MANY artist that widened and deepened my musical palate. Steve Miller, Steely Dan, Manfred Mann, Starlight Vocal Band, The Bee Gees, Aerosmith, Barry Manilow, Blue Oyster Cult, Boston, 10cc, Pablo Cruise etc etc so very grateful for my non biased upbringings. I’m a better man, singer songwriter for it.

    What I love about my African American parents is that they believed in listening to all kinds of music and not just R&B. Back when I was 10 years old, my parents bought an 8-track of the Steve Miller Band. My brother, sister, and I listened to all of the songs on that 8-Track continuously, but The Joker was our favorite. Kudos to this band for making such awesome music that has transcended time. Here I am, 55 years old, and I thought about this song, and I had to hear it. Thanks to CZcams and technology for allowing us to relive a great part of our childhood through music, movies, and videos.

    Happy belated 50th anniversary to this song, it was released in January 1974! It’s leap year day 2024 as I post this comment. This song made the top ten songs of 1974, In addition to “Sweet Home Alabama”(Lynryd Sknryd), “I can Help”(Billy Swan), “Bennie and the Jets,”(Elton John), and Grand Funks cover version of Loco motion. May this song live in for another 50 years!!!

    Steve Miller was 15 when he had his 1st performance with the band and they started for none other than Chuck Berry for $50. He told Dan Rathers he was so excited to open for Chuck Berry he would have done it for free. Imagine Miller for Berry, what a combo.

Back in my dark bedroom had to find this song on CZcams on my phone, to listen to it. Heard it so many times in high school in late 1970s. From a vinyl record. Not once back then could I have imagined ever thinking that someday I'd write the message I just wrote! Half of those words didn't exist in 1970s. Life is weird like that.
