The live performance of "Hey Nineteen" by The Dukes of September at Lincoln Center on November 30, 2011, showcases a notable moment in Donald Fagen's career, a significant time after the peak of Steely Dan's commercial success. Prior to this recording, Steely Dan's last studio album was "Two Against Nature," released in 2000, which marked their return after a lengthy hiatus and earned them Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year. The song "Hey Nineteen," originally released in 1980 on the album "Gaucho," reflects Steely Dan's characteristic blend of jazz, rock, and sophisticated lyrics. Throughout their career, Donald Fagen and Walter Becker, known for their innovative fusion of styles and sharp storytelling, have maintained a loyal fanbase, and this performance exemplifies how the duo's legacy continues through their solo endeavors and collaborative projects like The Dukes of September.
