This is the only version that should be played on the radio.

Steve miller band and the 707,
The 1970s sounded magical

[Wizardof]

Finally the one we old folk are used to hearin' on the radio.

I’m 61 this year and this never gets old!! The long version has been called the “version” and I agree!! Loooove this song!!

[gregfarnham]

My first flight on a 707 was June 1967; I was 21 and heading from New York-Kennedy to London-Heathrow. What a thrill. Whenever "Jet Airliner" comes on, I'm many years younger and back on that Pan Am airplane!

[GRILLBUOY]

being mid 50s i have heard this song millions of times on the radio and its all good

[Zickcermacity]

This ain't the 'Long' version - it's THE VERSION!

And any radio station that plays the "3 : 05" cut, or substitutes "funky 'kicks'" for 4:11 can kindly switch formats or go all talk 😉

If you lived in Atlanta dying the 70’s. This is the only version the radio station played. Man I miss those days.

GOT TO SEE STEVE AND THE BAND PLAY THIS VERSION IN ST LOUIS IN 1978.. ITS STILL GREAT.

[christopherorourke]

Great song from 1977 & the greatest and/or one of the greatest decades for music. Give me the 1970’s music anyday, anytime, anyplace.

The intro to this song is pure "Boeing 707"!! I flew on a couple of 707s back in 1973, and everytime I hear this, it brings back those great memories. It became a top-of-the-charts blockbuster tune back in the day, and remains a true classic by Steve Miller to this day. This is the very best version of this timeless masterpiece. What a perfect song to represent an absolute marvel of an airplane, the Boeing 707 itself. The video presentation of the classic "jet airliner", is a many "thumbs up". However, late in the song, they must've accidentally placed a Pan Am DC-8 picture in here. How did that get in?? Otherwise, I can't say too much more about this one, only that such an iconic song starts to give the public worldwide, a true perspective on "jet-travel".

Steve Miller was in the top ten charts from 1972 to 1977 with a few number one hits like fly like an eagle' the joker' rocking me'
mr Miller should be
a member of the
Rock and roll hall of fame

[nsnopper]

Do check out Paul Pena’s version. He wrote the song, and recorded it in 1973 for his album New Train. But because of legal issues, the album wasn’t released until 2000. So, for almost 3 decades, the Steve Miller version was the only one we heard.

[brianpicking]

My favorite Steve Miller band song. Remember it clear back when it came out when I was 5 years old:)

[bobwirth]

What great memories cruising in my camaro back in the day blasting this song out 💯💯

[ANTHONYYOUNG-nc]

The guitar is crisp clear and clean, I don't play the instrument yet without playing it don't take rocket science to realize this is phenomenal! Only a few men on earth can play like this, I think that's why its off the ground.

[JR-zvqm]

That 2 minute opening is bad-ass. Always thought so.

[rob-robi]

Glorious guitar sounds, the intro is one of the best ever
Just sounds like happiness on a perfect sunny day like today in florida

[DOLRED]

OUTSTANDING !! I have only been on a 707 once --in June 1974. The song is memorable. Thanks.
