Steely Dan - Sampled!
Recordings that have used samples from Steely
Dan tracks
Here's a list I've put together recently after much research; a definitive guide to those artists and their songs that dared (sometimes) to sample the songs of Steely Dan.
The list includes - perhaps unsurprisingly - many contemporary Hip-Hop, Rap and Dance artists. In some cases (such as with De La Soul's 'Eye Know') the sample used is quite obvious in the mix and practically forms the backbone of the track.
*Tracks marked with an asterisk contain obvious musical elements of the original Steely Dan/Donald Fagen track rather than audio samples taken directly from the original recording.
If any of you guys know of any other Steely/Fagen sampled tracks that aren't on my list, please let me know!
