Fagen is soo cool!😂

dude i play rock n roll i dont know what ANY of this means

The chord structure is amazing …..Icing on the cake are the Michael McDonald backing vocal tight chord structure ♥️✨

Brilliant people constructing fantastic tunes...love it.

Inspiring.

And a young Rick Beato watched and said hmmmmm

of course it's technically called the `mediant`, & we all know what that means

"just put a gregorian swampy introduction to it, & it goes a little somethin' like this...."

Good thing he has sunglasses on because that noon sun is blinding.

Astounding knowledge and ability. No wonder Steely Dan is so great.

They way too Smart

"It's your favorite foreign movie" 😂

I'm a dipshit...but this song rips.

It’s wild how musically literate and inventive Donald is. Dude is for sure a genius.

That's konstantin kisin

A true master of his craft

Donald explaining music to us in a way most of us cannot understand. Peggy loves you

A great example of how you really don't need that many alterations to create something new out of standard harmonic material.

Wow!!!

F*cking GENIUS.

Sheer musical genius.

Rick Beato needs to interview this dude.

Omg I almost clapped at the end of this!!

The feeling process was very interesting.. Thanks

Guy is a total hack. He isn’t blues he isn’t jazz, but wishes. Called wannabe

The First Half of the 70's was All About the reintroduction of Major chords into "Pop" music.

The amazing thing is he gets all the theory. All the chord construction. But he puts it together in the most tasty way And then he takes the whole thing and creates hits.

Have you ever notice how Steely Dan's imitators, like Rupert Holmes, Christopher Cross, Ambrosia, etc. became known decades later as Yacht Rock, but not Steely Dan. They're their own genre.

So cool to hear how he constructs these songs.

Genius. Mixes blues and jazz

That chord @ 1:31 is the same chord Larry Carlton used to open 'Dont Take Me Alive'❤

Donald Fagen come back! The world needs you! I never thought about Peg as blues but he makes sense. It is a plagal cadence too! Wow.

I learned to play this in '79 on piano, then played it on guitar as a cover in a metal band I played in on the Sunset Strip in '86. It went over well. Great song, but it works best when played as close to the record as possible, and nobody plays it like Donald and company.

Great, video!!! Genius in action , indeed.

So glad RUclips exists

He’s forgotten more about music than I’ll ever know

Incredible song! Great video guys. Very interesting 🎹👍🏻

What Writer

This guy is a musical genius! Love me some Donald Fagen!

Nobody is like the Dan.

Yes we do

Oh The genius!

#is_shame about_me

Donald fagan is actually Nathan fielder

I remember seeing this clip about 5 years ago and having no clue what he was talking about. It feels amazing to watch it now and go "oh yeah!"

Absolutely incredible to hear how this masterpiece of a Pop/Jazz/Rock/Blues song was created.

yeah the uplifting twist that is the soul-enriching Steely Dan

Fagen is a genius.

I saw Steely Dan, at great Woods in Massachusetts, the 10th row, I could see the caps on Donalds teeth. It was an amazing show! Hit after hit.
