I'm not a religious man, but the fact that I lived long enough to see Steve Winwood and Steely Dan doing Pretzel Logic together suggests that whatever God is, this is part of it. 😎
Totally! No other band is as eclectic, creative, unique and you'll find a song you love if you listen to all their tunes, no matter your musical tastes. 🎶🎶🎹🎸📯🎺
I'm 76... I was the luckiest to live in these marvelous times of music, Beatles, Zappa, Hendrix, Led Zep, Doors, James Brown... so many... so many... thanks to ya'll brothers in music...
Carlock crushing it. Winwood ..... Herington sick solo. Caroline Leonhart vocalizing on the top. Those days are gone forever over a long time agooooooooo! Goosebumps every time.
If I could, I would attend every effen Steely Dan show!! This is my musical influence growing up, no one had it better than us post Boomers in the late 60's and throughout the seventies!!
Two great favourites Steely Dan and Steve Winwood. Such fantastic musical pleasure these special people have brought over the years. Thanks for all the great music.
Every once in awhile. A pair of artists will tour together that just seems to make perfect sense. I was born in 1969 and my parents always had music going in the house. Traffic and Steely Dan were on heavy rotation. As I got older I continued listening. The Nightfly and Arc of a diver.Those CDs were constantly in the car and by 1994. WOW!! STEELY DAN AND TRAFFIC WERE BACK!!! Getting to see both these bands in my mid-twenties seem like the best of times. Both these artists are the surviving legacy of those respective bands. To see these two together on stage performing pretzel logic is nothing short of Goosebumps! Donald Fagen graciously passing the vocals to Stevie, who still at this age has a tremendous voice just put the biggest smile on my face! When two artists of this caliber share the stage to perform on a piece of music that was written when they were at their peak, it can't help but stir something within you. Either that or my leg has a brain of its own because it uncontrollably taps along in time with this song everytime I hear it!😃 Whoever gave this a thumbs down must have been standing on their freaking head when they voted or they just truly have no soul that music can reach!!
Im a few years older than you (66) and we too always called him Stevie Winwood... actually it was "Little Stevie Winwood"....when did it change to Steve Winwood? It gave me a good laugh because we are both much younger than Steve and we were all calling him Stevie!
@@bretschwartz Ha! Yeah. I have always heard other artists I respect referring to Stevie in that way. He really did earn it out the gate though writing " gimme some lovin" at 15. It's hard to accept that these guys are near double overtime in their touring years. I don't want it to ever end. Winwood, Stones , The Who, The Eagles, Clapton, I've definitely turned into the old man that just doesn't like a lot of modern music. 🤣🤣🤣
Steely Dan's music is highly complexed with all the jazz influences yet it's very easy on the ear a lot of amazing guitar work and musicianship including the vocal harmonies drumming keyboard and horns nice funky bass too. All the albums are excellent. The Royal scan and Aja are my favourites but all of them are amazing.
Steely Dan and Stevie Winwood together on stage and two of my favourite acts. Being a drummer, I have played along to SD records as inspiration in the past and have some DAT tapes of a gig I played of their music which I must dig out and listen to at some point. I did some studio wiring installation work for Stevie W back in the late 1980's and, along with Peter Gabriel, he is one of the nicest people I have met in my career as a studio wiring installation person. Looks like Keith Carlock on drums who is fab. Quite good sound quality from a camera mic at the side, wow and thanks for sharing.
I agree, he's missed so much. Been a fan since the beginning. I was so glad to see them around 2000. Michael Mcdonald opened, he sat in, played and sang with them they were great. The other guitarist, often wears a black t shirt on stage played a lot of the leads. Walter Becker would have solos also. On one song the other guitar player,(black t shirt) I believe Jon Herrington a famous jazz guitarist was about to solo. Walter next to him cut him off with body language and took it himself. Of course when your 50% of S.D. you can do that. He played a great lead. Yes Walter is missed....and his humor. I nremember a interview " whats your favorite SD album? He did not flinch...."Kind Of Blue".....a Miles Davis album....
@@lukemanify I see your view, if it was Donald gone respectfully, Wally would carry on. He would have sit in guest keyboardist, touring keyboardist, guest vocalist. It's their music, he would want to continue as Donald wants. They made that decision a long time ago as you recall. The name rights and so forth would go to the remaining one. I don't want to sound morbid, think if it was a plane crash and both were gone....yikes, horrible.
This is great. I have always loved their live rendition of this song. Keith Carlock really drives this version with his percussive percussion. And I could listen to Steve Winwood improvise to the swampy bluesy chord progression all night!
Watched the video. Wonderful stuff, couldn’t help but notice the drummer on his entrance. Talk about setting the course forward, powerful!! Didn’t know who he was but now I do. Great job by Keith, great drummer. The whole group, plus Winwood, super!
Nice! I saw Steely dan just before Covid and it was great.. Haven't heard that Steve Winwood was going to tour with them.. Will definitely be on the lookout for that!
Same here! Have only just discovered Keith Carlock, but I can’t stop watching him! Also pushed me Wayne Krantz’s way which has been another joyful guitarist discovery. That guy is in another world!
I have been following him since my first S D concert in Charlotte NC in 2005. Such a great rockin' guy when he needs to be, and super smooth when called upon. And always funky. Beautiful musician. And I'm a keyboard player lol.
I've enjoyed Steely Dan live a couple of times over the years. It doesn't get a whole lot better. But if Stevie Winwood had been with them then I may have had to hi jack the concert and kept it going even now in December 2020. But I'm not all bad. I would've given them a 10 minute break every 24 hours.
so important to me , saw them way back in Bristol supported by the wonderful Kiki Dee ( wow) and then in nec first time , had shit seats . but hey , music is a massive part of my life , I still play and the covers I do are , mostly from all those great performers of the 70's , Jackson Browne , J T , Stills , . such a great era and these dudes are still doing it ,
Having grown up with their music, it's hard for us not to see Walter there. I'm sure it's always on Donald's mind. Fantastic to see the genius known as Steve Winwood with Donald though.
@@davidperez5089 With the exception of Donald, all of the band members were either in diapers or not even born when Stevie sang on not 1 but 2 top 10 hits with Spencer Davis group.
I had this album when it came out, and my wife and I were in the process of separating. I listened to it a lot back then, but could never get into it, now 45 years later I have grown to enjoy the music while forgetting the circumstances surrounding it. Brilliant song, along with the riff from Rikki don't lose that number.
I'm 71 If our generation didn't accomplish anything else but we had the best music ever❤❤❤
I'm not a religious man, but the fact that I lived long enough to see Steve Winwood and Steely Dan doing Pretzel Logic together suggests that whatever God is, this is part of it. 😎
I feel the exact same way!
Same 💯
I'm 72. I've heard it all from the beginning of rock and roll. This is the best band of all time. There won't ever be any better.
Bold statement
True enough. Steely Dan are top 5 easily for me.
Agree
Totally! No other band is as eclectic, creative, unique and you'll find a song you love if you listen to all their tunes, no matter your musical tastes. 🎶🎶🎹🎸📯🎺
Yes, a bold statement. But who's better, over the last 5 decades? I just wish they had more of a live performance history.
I'm 76... I was the luckiest to live in these marvelous times of music, Beatles, Zappa, Hendrix, Led Zep, Doors, James Brown... so many... so many... thanks to ya'll brothers in music...
Carlock crushing it. Winwood ..... Herington sick solo. Caroline Leonhart vocalizing on the top. Those days are gone forever over a long time agooooooooo! Goosebumps every time.
Is there anything better than Steve Winwood on a Hammond B3, playing and singing Pretzel Logic with the Dan?! It's a classic for real.
Rest in peace Walter Becker... Your music is some of the best I've ever known
Fagen and Becker are wonderful song writers, thankyou for all the tunes.
If I could, I would attend every effen Steely Dan show!! This is my musical influence growing up, no one had it better than us post Boomers in the late 60's and throughout the seventies!!
Boomers were born 1946-64. Yer a boomer, Peter!
Peter check out monkey house, don breithaupt’ band ,he wrote the 33 1/3 series book about Aja . 4 discs , true north and headquarters are my favs
Stop using that stupid word ..
well said
I'm 69 years old , and you are so right , and much of that music stands the test of time , much more than most of the current crop.🥰
Carlock immediately lays the deep groove down. What a backbeat. He understands this music, what is called for, and brings it.
Keith used to play in my band once! (we went to college together)
@@krisberg318That’s really cool 👍
Steely dan can not lose me with their music-been listening to this group since 1974.oct2020.
Those days are gone forever...over a long time ago.
But we still have the music !!
Beautiful
C.A. Savage Thank Fuq ✌
I miss Walter
@@jeffv7046 We all miss Walter.
Two great favourites Steely Dan and Steve Winwood. Such fantastic musical pleasure these special people have brought over the years. Thanks for all the great music.

Keith Carlock driving this train like nobody’s business ! This dude takes the term “in the pocket” to a whole different level . Outstanding .
He's a Machine. His kick drum here is magic.
Dude be playing like somebody forgot to pay him!
Keith is ruining the shuffle groove by forcing the triplets on the hi-hat. I guess he can't play a proper shuffle.
@@jonathanedwards8696 Something's too heavy in the drums. Also I find it too slow; draws everything out too much. Great song, of course.
really good drum sound for this old Dan song live,tuff like it needs it!!
Two of my favorite musicians together on stage. I am glad I wasn’t there, I would have been crying the whole time.
This is the Low Spark of High Heeled Pretzel Logic.
👍😁
I couldn’t have said it any better!
Good one!
Yep!
right on the money!

Then, Pretzel Logic was for an evening a Steve Winwood song. Brilliant.
So sad Becker was no longer there.

Amen
If you noticed, Fagen was in no big hurry to replace him.
This was an Early Dan song. It always amazed me how far ahead of their time they were and still are. Just a bitchin band.
Had the album....I was a die hard fan. Rotated between SD and Mott the Hoople.
This group makes music masterpieces. Every tune is a masterpiece.
OMG!! Two absolute legends of music
This is great. I have always loved their live rendition of this song. Keith Carlock really drives this version with his percussive percussion. And I could listen to Steve Winwood improvise to the swampy bluesy chord progression all night!
This is unbelievably amazing! Stevie's B3 and his voice make this a perfect performance. Thanks for sharing this special video.
Yes, Steve gave this song some instant Traffic.
@@caryheuchert so gooooood !
Steely Dan and Steve Winwood ought to perform "Rock and Roll Stew" and "Night by Night" together back to back.
pure class! steve winwood and steely dan live how can it get better then this .
Have the THREE BACK UP Singers get NAKED !!!!!!
walter becker
Back in action on tour this year (US only I think)
Correct spelling.That’s how.
Well, the audio could be better.
I never get tired of listening to all of Steely Dan .
Absolutely my era! Real singer's and musicians! Thank you guys! Long live rock!
singers still sing and players still play and are real, even if you can't find them.
Watched the video. Wonderful stuff, couldn’t help but notice the drummer on his entrance. Talk about setting the course forward, powerful!! Didn’t know who he was but now I do. Great job by Keith, great drummer. The whole group, plus Winwood, super!
If the COVID thing lifts to allow concerts again, I have tickets to see Steely Dan and Steve Winwood in Phoenix next year!
I’ll meet you there!!! 😁
I've got tickets to see them at the Hollywood Bowl
same
Nice! I saw Steely dan just before Covid and it was great.. Haven't heard that Steve Winwood was going to tour with them.. Will definitely be on the lookout for that!
@@SteveJones172pilot Walter Brecker isn’t with us any more, so you‘ll probably not see Steely Dan as we know them...
Chain Lightning is my all time fave SD tune....loved these guys back in the day!
Yes, I'm a big fan of Chain Lightning-- and wouldn't it be excellent to have Steve W on organ and vocals for that one as well!
I was there. The whole show was magnificent. This version was sublime.
I was too......fabulous.....concert hall
❤❤❤
Thanks for the music this is a thirty five year old timeless song steely Dan music of their own and joined by Steve win wood amazing
Try 45 😐
The Hammond organ has such a distinctive sound!!
Steve Winwood, a gentleman
Song writing at its absolute peak who writes popular music about napoleons lonliness ...over a long time agoooo..oh yeahhh
Keith Carlock ion the drums is one of the best drummers out there .......Wish he received more recognition
20 years with Steely Dan.....I mean....ahhhh....what more recognition does he need?" Replace Ringo in a New Beatles? N
any good drummer knows and appreciates KC
Those who know, know. He's superb.
@@jmb92555 Any major dude would tell ya
Kc brings it.. 🥁
I've heard many arrangements of this song and love every one of them.
This is surprisingly a really good audio recording, I’m a guitar player but Keith Carlock’s drumming is just mesmerizing!
Same here! Have only just discovered Keith Carlock, but I can’t stop watching him! Also pushed me Wayne Krantz’s way which has been another joyful guitarist discovery. That guy is in another world!
Carlock has been with Steely Dan for over a decade. Find him on the song “Aja”. He does Steve Gadd proud.
I have been following him since my first S D concert in Charlotte NC in 2005. Such a great rockin' guy when he needs to be, and super smooth when called upon. And always funky. Beautiful musician. And I'm a keyboard player lol.
Yes, this is wonderful stuff as expected from these guys, but drumming is stand out amazing
Isn't it just! Sometimes he is so tight you can't hear him!
This band, that band. We grew up witnessing some of the BEST MUSICIANS of all time! 71 years old and still rocking my socks off 😎🤙
This sounds amazing and love them so much listening to them then and now. Never get tired of these awesome musicians!!! 🥰
I used to listen to this song with my dad. Helps me to remember him. Thank you!!
Great musicians love the Dan.
SW really knows how to work that Hammond b3
had the pleasure to be there absolutely fantastic.what a band .still sounding as brilliant as ever
I was supposed to see this show in chicago last june, damn virus, i could just cry
I am an 80's person...and i remember this intro from childhood amazing heart felt music.....wish this was today's' music...
Hello Ela,
How’re you doing?
Thanks for all your love and support,also for being an amazing fan.
It’s nice meeting you here
wow what a combo. Stevie Winwood and Steely Dan!
Underrated track from an underrated album. Winwood on vocals and organ make it something special indeed. Can the Dan play the blues? Uh-huh.
We were there for this amazing show, perfection from start to finish.
Top musicians still at the top of their game. Amazing.
Todays music cant compare, some of the best ever. Im near 70 and just happy to know I lived through the best.
This is in my opinion there best song. It was what they were working up to over all those years.
Jon Herington rules!
This is BRILLIANT!❤
Hello Nancy,
How’re you doing?
Thanks for all your love and support,also for being an amazing fan.
It’s nice meeting you here
Just awesome. That's talent rite there!
That's an overdose of brilliance and talent😜
Sad not seeing Walter anymore
Yes isn't it. He is greatly missed.
Very. Very.
Would have enjoyed seeing/hearing them do ''Mr Fantasy'' as well.
Who can ever say what’s the best. But these guys are up there spanning decades with hits
Thanks for the upload! Two giants together-Winwood and Fagen! Great version 🎶 🎹
John Harrington with an impeccable solo performance as usual
Brilliant concert.
Two legends on one stage. This folks is the center of the universe.
72 here. I've been a Steve Winwood fan for years. Still love him & his music!
Thank you for sharing this version.
It came to me in a dream. Pretzel Logic is 'Low Spark of the High Healed Boys' with swing.
Still going strong....gotta love these guys! Thanks for the great music..both past & present! Peace!

Clicked to see if Steve was singing. I was not disappointed.
Icons, legends from the brilliant innovative past. Will the future music eclipse the past?
God… this was right before quarantine…

These 2, play exquisite together!!🎉🎶
Are you kidding me? Had I known about this concert, I would have gladly flown across the pond to attend. Epic combo!
I stepped up on the platform, the man gave me the news, he said, "you must be jokin' son, where did you get those shoes?"
This is excellent with windwood. My life is complete now. "He said you must be joking son where did you get those shoes"!!!

definitely the best USA band . I'm 67 and never heard better. RIP Walter 2 years prior. What a fusion of rock and jazz.
Walter Becker was a great guitarist
Dirty Blues with Jazz. this is as good as it gets..
Having grown up with their music, it's hard for us not to see Walter there. I'm sure it's always on Donald's mind. Fantastic to see the genius known as Steve Winwood with Donald though.
ahhh to go back to this time pre-covid... what a great performance.
Simply superb and sublime does such quality even exist in today's musical landscape? i doubt it!
Observe the band as Stevie walks out. They understand they are in the presence of majesty.
You might be reaching there a little, a saw one or two maybe. Remember they're playing with steely Dan so....
Agreed - Steve Winwood is one of the greatest and underrated artists of our time
Really? Ur talking about Bruce Jenner? .. Jk, . Majesty is a little too out there buddy. Imo
@@g.marksman1769 hilarious comparison!!!
@@davidperez5089 With the exception of Donald, all of the band members were either in diapers or not even born when Stevie sang on not 1 but 2 top 10 hits with Spencer Davis group.
You have to watch this several times to get what's all going on here. This is amazing.
I’d like to hear Doctor Wu played live
I always wanted to hear Razor Boy!👻
Heard it at Beacon request night. Magical. Shame not done more. My favorite. Now w No Walter- no LONGER SD.
To match the original recording you would need to get the great saxophonist Phil Woods back, who died in 2015.
Speechless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Saw Steely Dan and Steve Winwood here in Sydney in 2011. It was amazing. I feel so lucky to have seen them both at least once in my life. I’m 60.
What a merciless groove...😱😱😱😱
Love, love, love it
What a sweet jam with Th Dan and Mr. Winwood. Love the addition of the B 3.
I saw Steely Dan and Steve Winwood at Bimbadgen winery, (nsw Australia)the best concert I have ever been too.
Love Steely Dan and you cant put them in a Box Great Band great song PL
What a great bunch of musicians! I would so love to jam with this band on this song!

I've loved Stevie Winwood ever since Gimme Some Loving.
