Steely Dan

In the summer of 2003, Steely Dan was deep into their 'Everything Must Go' tour, showcasing their jazzy rock vibe to fans across the country. Before this live recording at DTE Energy Music Theatre in Clarkston, Michigan, the band had released their album 'Two Against Nature' in 2000, which marked their return after a two-decade hiatus. This album earned them four Grammy Awards, revitalizing their legacy in the music scene. Interestingly, 'Hey Nineteen,' a classic from their 1980 album 'Gaucho,' was a fan favorite—its themes of nostalgia and youthful romance resonate deeply. Performing it live allowed both the band and the audience to celebrate the enduring nature of their music, and capture that electric energy, blending sophisticated melodies with relatable lyrics.
