Fuck Kanye West. How is it creativity when you're constantly stealing other people's songs? Don't feed me some "He's doing it out of respect and appreciation of the artists" crap. He's only taking advantage of a generation of young people that don't look outside of the mainstream shit pop music that is being fed to them through the media. Music like this will never last, Steely, and other bands he has stolen from are timeless, and their songs would be better off without him mucking up the water.
@aknowneemus You did seriously not write that! Sampling is not stealing! If it were stealing imagine the law suits, Kanye got permission to use this song and obviously the original artist supported his decision. Plus, without Kanye, I would have never discovered this brilliant song! People need to think before they write on this site....
Awesome, thanks! Now I really need to get my Yamaha back up here (it's in storage) and practice this! I have some Steely Dan books but can't seem to get them from paper to keys (even though I have a background in classical music). This is really helpful! Hoping you have more videos!
this is pretty sweet. thanks a lot, i've been trying to learn this one! i bet you could use the same keyboard settings and pull off "Green Earrings" by Steely Dan also

No, I specifically mean Cm where the Eb slides up to the E. C7 #9 would suggest both an E AND a D# above. This is NOT what I mean.

...Alternate C7 with Cm7??? It's called C7 #9 where the #9 is D# and not Eb. Good job anyway!
