    I love so many things about this band, starting with the vocals and that wicked guitarist on the Strat. But that's not all. Incredible horns, bass, drums, and keyboards, and most of all, the arrangements. Reelin' in the Years has accomplished the most important thing that any cover band is aiming for: they sound just like the original song by Steely Dan. God Bless you guys and thanks for the great music.

    Professional cover on all levels-R. M. on drums is as legendary as his original. Donald Fagan’s lyrics are the poetry of a word smithing genius, and I have always believed his phrasing was as important as the words themselves. For so many listeners to “feel” the lead vocalist “nails it” is a compliment beyond measure and a testament to his skill and love for Steely Dan. And yes, he nails this interpretation in a way that both does it justice and takes it to a different yet relevant level. I will watch this over and over. Thank you for posting.

    Thanks for the positive feedback. I would not assume Fagan was the lyricist on Steely Dan. I’m fairly certain Walter contributed quite a bit to the lyrical content.
