Steely Dan

Steely Dan at Molson Canadian Amphitheatre

Why see Steely Dan?

Steely Dan are a jazz rock band who were especially popular during the 1970s. Although the line-up has changed, the band continue to tour after a ten-year hiatus in the 1980s. Their first album, Can't Buy a Thrill, contained two of their best loved songs - "Do It Again" and "Reelin' In the Years".

With diverse lyrics that some believe focus on the socially unacceptable subjects, their music expresses a moral point and focuses on traditional values within the modern world. Their music being the heart of the 70s scene, they define a particular era of music and have been involved in huge moment within modern pop history from the 80s until now.

Steely Dan and world of musical discovery awaits you!

I thought the show was amazing. Donald Fagen's voice is as strong as ever. Just disappointed they didn't play one of my favorites Deacon Blues. Overall great show and Syracuse Amphitheater is a great venue! ... Read more

Better then Ever

It was my 8th or 9th show and it was as good as any. Keith Carlock stole the show. And that is really saying something with all the great players on that stage. The crescendos at the end of Bodhisatva were worth the price of admission alone. They stellar, peerless sound was no more evident then in the drum set it self. You could hear each piece evenly. You could hear the high regestries in the crash cymbols. They introduced Carlock last. Very strong set list though I'm not a fan of Godwhacker. Great dark cool funky re-working of Your Gold Teeth II and Show Biz kids. The only negatives were Aja - it still doesn't have the xylophones part - and the great background vocals. They weren't loud enough. But other then that what a joy. I keep on threatening to buy the 250$ seats some year. Next tour I may do it. The playing, songs, and sound somehow, are getting better. ...

Donald Fagen Once Again Rises to the Occassion

Considering his age and the fact that he has lost his long term partner, Donald Fagen still delivered the goods to a fond and equally aging, sophisticated audience. His team of virtuoso musicians led by Musical Director Jon Herrington delivered a tight set list with the occasional departure from the original recordings with just enough flavor to deliver the intended moment of extreme pleasure. My only suggestion would be to start earlier in the evening and lose the opening act so that the merry band of old hippies in attendance can get their fill before arriving home around midnight. ...
