  • That was great! The skeleton of "Hey Nineteen." You gotta build it from the ground up which means drums, bass, and in this case some rhythmic Fender Rhodes piano and some nice Melodica playing by Donald Fagen.

  • no this was not an out take...u guys are such cute puppies...smirk...

  • yup

  • Where might one find this particular version?

  • seems to be just a few tracks from the entire song - amazing - where do you get this kind of material - has it been published? I dunno, could you emulate this in some way? OK, the instruments but the voice ...

  • Fantastic...thanx for this

  • Yeah theres no reverb and if im correct they used plate reverb :)

  • This sounds like it is an early mixdown before alot of the overdubs were printed to tape. Cool, very cool.

  • This really demonstrates the artistic musical brilliance of Fagen & Becker. Thanks for the post.

  • its a demo version

  • @julymozart

    thanks ;-)

  • @julymozart I wouldn't call it a demo because it sounds like the actual tracks that ended up on the final mix.

  • @DowntownCanon i dont know man it kinda sounded like it needed a little more mixing on the voice, the guitar parts, back vocals, are not there yet so it kinda is like a demo also the drums really dont sound like they do on the final mix

  • was this some sort of outtake or demo from Gaucho?

  • @kahne2

    maybe ...but i don't know for that ; i just find this song on web and like this version 'cause never hear it ! If somebody could help us , we thank it

    (i'm french, is my english good ? ) thx ^^

  • @kahne2 I'm not positive but to my ears it's the basic track (E. piano, bass, main vocal, synth melody and drum track - Kick, Snare, Crash). They must have used this as the foundation to over dub guitars, backing vocals, hi hats, etc. I remember reading that Fagen and Becker wanted to basically use drum sequencing (primitive technology at the time) for the drum take so it could be PERFECT and this seems to back up that story, sounds like the drum track is a basic loop. COOL VID!

  • sans lead guitar! such a sweet song
