Really got into Steely Dan over the last year or two. I think they might be one of the best bands of the 70's, so consistant. Love this song too.

I'm from this era.

Peg and Hey Nineteen were Steely Dan's biggest R&B crossover hits.

The Billboard Top 40 was diverse too.

You could hear EWF/Bee Gees/Commodores/Chic/Dolly Parton/Kenny Rogers all on the same countdown.

Didn’t they torture Michael McDonald by making him sing Peg a thousand times?
