"Jet Airliner" is a song composed by Paul Pena in 1973 and popularized by the Steve Miller Band in 1977. Pena wrote and recorded "Jet Airliner" in 1973 for his New Train album. However, New Train was not released until 2000, due to conflicts between him and his label. On classic rock radio, Miller's "Jet Airliner" is generally played in tandem with "Threshold", the all-synthesizer instrumental that precedes it on Book of Dreams and the Greatest Hits 1974–78 compilation.

  • "Jet Airliner" is a song composed by Paul Pena in 1973 and popularized by the Steve Miller Band in 1977. Pena wrote and recorded "Jet Airliner" in 1973 for his New Train album. However, New Train was not released until 2000, due to conflicts between him and his label. Steve Miller heard Pena's unreleased New Train album through Ben Sidran, who produced it, and who was formerly in Miller's band. Miller recorded "Jet Airliner" in 1975 during sessions for the Fly Like an Eagle album, but the song was not issued until 1977, when it was released as a single and was included on Miller's Book of Dreams album. The lyrics of the Steve Miller Band version are slightly different from the Pena original. Miller's performance of the main riff also is slightly different from Pena's original, which has a more funky edge to it. The song is also notable for an early reference to the catchphrase "keep on keepin' on", also found in John Lennon's 1974 song "Old Dirt Road" and in the Bob Dylan songs "Tangled Up in Blue" and "You Ain't Goin' Nowhere." The single reached No. 8 on the Billboard chart. In Canada, the song spent two weeks at No. 3. On classic rock radio, Miller's "Jet Airliner" is generally played in tandem with "Threshold", the all-synthesizer instrumental that precedes it on Book of Dreams and the Greatest Hits 1974–78 compilation.

  • Jet Airliner is een nummer van de Amerikaanse band Steve Miller Band uit 1977. Het is de eerste single van hun tiende studioalbum Book of Dreams. "Jet Airliner" werd geschreven door de Amerikaanse muzikant Paul Pena en was een track op zijn album New Train, dat hij in 1973 opnam. Wegens conflicten tussen Pena en zijn platenlabel werd het album pas in 2000 uitgebracht. Steve Miller hoorde het album al wel vlak nadat het opgenomen werd. Dit kwam door producer Ben Sidran, die ook lid was geweest van de Steve Miller Band. Miller nam in 1975 een cover van "Jet Airliner" op, die hij in de eerste instantie al bedoelde voor het album Fly Like an Eagle, maar uiteindelijk kwam de cover terecht op opvolger Book of Dreams. De cover werd een grote hit in Noord-Amerika en bereikte de 8e positie in de Amerikaanse Billboard Hot 100. Nederland en België waren de enige Europese landen waarin het nummer een hit werd. In de Nederlandse Top 40 bereikte het de 13e positie, en in de Vlaamse Radio 2 Top 30 werd de 29e positie behaald. (nl)
