Darren Rust - Peg (feat. Yohannes Tona & Kenni Holmen )

Darren Rust - Peg (feat. Yohannes Tona & Kenni Holmen) Tunes by Humans - Celebrating music made by humans…for humans. “Peg” is a classic jazz-rock track by Steely Dan, released in 1977 as part of their landmark album Aja. The song peaked at No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1978 (and No. 8 on the Cash Box chart), making it one of their biggest hits. It features Donald Fagen on lead vocals, with standout backing vocals from Michael McDonald (his iconic “Peg!” delivery is unforgettable), a killer guitar solo by Jay Graydon (after several top session players tried and failed to nail it), and that signature Steely Dan polish—blending smooth jazz elements, yacht rock vibes, and sharp, cynical lyrics. The track tells the story from the perspective of a jilted ex-boyfriend watching his former partner (Peg, an aspiring actress/starlet) chase fame in a seedy Hollywood photo shoot scene, set in a imagined 1950s LA atmosphere. Donald Fagen has described it as inspired by the movie All About Eve, with themes of ambition, betrayal, and karmic payback (“Peg, it will come back to you”). Fagen has clarified there’s no deep hidden meaning—the name “Peg” was simply chosen to fit the rhythm (a dotted half note in the melody), and it’s about a real person but not any specific historical figure. The production on Aja (and “Peg” especially) is legendary for its perfectionism, with top session musicians and endless takes to get everything just right. It’s often hailed as one of the standout tracks on what many consider Steely Dan’s masterpiece album. #skylandstudios #Steely Dan #Donald Fagen #tunesbyhumans skylandstudio.com @YohannesTona @KenniHolmen
