Funny story about "Hey Nineteen".
Fagen & Becker had set up their engineer friend (Elliot Sheiner) on a blind date with a young 19y/o girl - far younger than him. Obviously, the age difference created quite a "dynamic" and the song was born.

It’s a great song. An example of what music should be.

Classic song. Perfect cynical, world-weary lyrics. Smooth as silk rhythm section. Like my old friend Ray once said (before he went to jail), “Anyone who doesn’t like Steely Dan doesn’t like music.”
