Hey! any Dobbie Bros fans here Another 70's group that were Badd In their hey day they had hit after hit. When Michael Mcdonald joined the group their sound change to more R&B which was ok but I like their pop/rock sound more, I know some of the orginal members left because they didn't like the direction Michael was taking the group. Here are some of my favorites
China grove Long train running Listen to the music Black water Jesus is alright with me It keep's you runnin What a fool believes Minute by Minute Real love | |

the DOOBIES.. oh HELL YES!
& even COOLER, lovedad43.. I dig EVERY song you mentioned, PLUS of course Takin' It To The Street - maybe their best known song.. "you - tellin' me the things you're gonna do for me I ain't blind & I don't like what I think I see" One By One I'm Here To Love You if I had to 1 song from the Doobies, it might be MINUTE BY MINUTE. Michael McDonald nails that vocal - especially the bridge : "call my name & I'll be gone you reach out & I won't be there just my luck you'll realize you could spend your life with someone.." very soulful. I also love IT KEEPS YOU RUNNIN.. I love the clavinet "layering".. & I love the "down home" sound of BLACK WATER "I like to hear some FUNKY Dixieland pretty momma come & take me by the hand.." LONG TRAIN RUNNING has a sort of.. urgency to it.. great guitar & bass & percussion those boys could DO it. then Michael took them to another level - definitely more "pop" & more "soulful" but how many bands could go through such a "radical change" but still be successful??? yeah.. the DOOBIES are rock & roll I'll see you tonight..
in ALL MY DREAMS.. |

"How About Some Doobie In Your Funk?"Well actually Ms. Legs, George was putting the Doobie's down when he said "Can you imagine Doobie in your funk"???? Meaning they weren't funky at all.....But its like asking "Can you imagine Elvis in your funk"???? OH!!!
But I love the Doobie's....."Long Train Running" is my favorite...  [Edited 4/30/05 18:40pm] | |

I'm a Doobie fan. I even had a 45 of Patrick Simmon's record So Wrong. My fave Doobie songs are: What A Fool Believes, Black Water and It Keeps You Runnin'. Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off | |

http://www.soundclick.com...rmusic.htm The part that was funny was when Rerun was dancing and the tape recorder fell out onto the floor. Eveybody, including the Doobie's stopped playing and looked at Rerun. That's one of those airline commercial moments "Wanna get away?". SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz.
