I’m not normally a tribute band fan but, I’ve been listening to and been a fan of Steely Dan for 45 years and I have to say this is the best tribute band of The Dan I’ve ever heard. Kudos!

[edburns]

Never realized they took it a whole step down from the recorded version. Good move. Fagan has a pretty high range.

[TheShawnmaxx]

I can't get enough of this version of Josie....that solo guitar performance is awesome....

[TimClarkeJazzTrumpet]

Closest cover I’ve heard in terms of the groove, which has a lot more blues/jazz undertones than most bands I’ve heard try it

[Rick-pnpp]

This cover with extended guitar solo is tremendous. The musicianship is perfect in every way.

[ksilva]

Jesus this was better than the original. That solo!

[andyinoregon]

That extended outro makes this the best "Josie" I've ever heard.

Ive heard drummers really nail gadds chart to perfection but honestly i like this signature stamp the drummer laid down. True to the song but a personal touch. Loved the way it rocked out at the outro. Just a great treatment by this band overall. Thanks for posting it.

I've been listening to Steely Dan since I was a little kid in the 70s. You guys do an amazing job! And I gotta say, this drummer has the PERFECT combination of touch, feel and of course timing. Any drummer can hold the beat, but very few have the nuance to do actual justice to the Dan like we see here. Kudos!

[beboboymann]

THIS……is as good as it gets tribute wise. Somebody buy the mixing guy a beer. Way to go! Glad I discovered you guys so I can follow you along with LLB, Singit, and of course Leonid and Friends.

Jesus guys, this is just off the charts AMAZING

[MrMauk]

This band is amazing. Why listen to a cover band when the real thing is still touring? Because this band is awe inspiring. Jesus Christ are they good!

NETFLIX a chronical of Songs come to the big screen as shorts dedicated to Steely Dan Songs.

Dont know how you do it but you are doing Steely DAN your way. Making it your own, but still respecting the SONG. Pretty Amazing. Now I expect you guys to cover the full SD catlogue and take it on a WORLD TOUR. as the best SD Cover Band.
Keep it like this Your Guitar edge and creative forms and notes deviating from the original is working like MAGIC. CONGRATULATIONS and BRAVO performance.

[chrisgulbranson]

Holy shit that outro solo was amazing!

[DefaultName-kduy]

This is my dogs name. I named her after this song. My dad's dog is Rikki, and my brother's dog is Bodhi. I love Steely Dan

[charliehand]

As with so many Steel Dan songs, this one could go on indefinitely and never get old. Little bit of your own arrangement teaks here, and awesomely done!!

[Boddissatva]

I’m now a frequent flyer. You all are insanely good

[davekranyik]

Super great performance so glad you made this!

[finscreenname]

I dont know why but every time I listen to this song I almost get a ghost of a feeling like its 1978. I was only 10 years then but it just takes me there. Great work guys.
