My first 45 record on my little record player. I was 6. Loved them then and still do at 55. Thank you so much and love!
Thank you!
From Leigh high school in the 70’s and my dad went to Campbell high 4 years prior…. He used to just keep the doobies on repeat when he came back on highway 80 from UNR TO San Jose and I grew up on them from the day I was born in 1993. I can sing every song by heart now
What a Great romantic and spiritual shift, Micheal caused, so thankful for it!
What a Great Group, they have made a impact to my soul!
McVee looks like the lady therapist on Intervention
A favorite!
The music is fantastic, has withstood the test of time… but as people, it just don't get no better than this!!
Not only are their vocals wonderful…..these men are perhaps the best musicians you’ll ever hear!
Their claimed to fame is being on What's Happening!! Lol
Have tickets to see them next summer. Can’t wait! So many of us grew up loving them!!!
They morphed into a Vegas style lounge band. They used to be a rock/easy listening band. Not an improvement.
🖤🥀I've been listening to them since the 60's on up my sister's use to play their music all day. Thanks for posting this video🥀🖤✌🥀
All legends
You are all so loved! So "Good" to see and hear you again! Takes us back! Thank you!!❣
I caught the doobies on 10/29/21 in Allentown, the final night of this leg of the 50th anniversary tour – WHAT A SHOW!! TomJohnston AND Michael McDonald and, of course, the one mainstay through all the different permutations of the doobies, Patrick Simmons…wish I could’ve seen Tiran Porter up there onstage, he’s an excellent bass player, maybe even skunk 🦨 Baxter 😂, but no complaints, they truly put in a fabulous show, 2 1/2 hours, no opener, came on stage 15 min or so after scheduled showtime…gonna go back to see them again, it was so good, in Camden, NJ in June…
The Doobies are a good example of what happens when a corporation (Warner Bros) demands a return on their investment, there was to be no stopping the band, even temporarily, when Tom Johnston had his troubles in the 70s…they were fortunate to get Michael McDonald, to continue their success, and they coalesced around him, IDK if Johnston has/had any lingering feelings about it, it did not show when they were onstage. Most bands don’t survive, let alone thrive, when their (unquestioned, afa I can tell) leader leaves the band. Second lives for groups are very rare. And the Michael McDonald years are nearly, if not actually, just as “important” as the years when Johnston was cranking out those radio-ready songs on their first few lps.
Dinosaur Rock? Well call me Alley Oop and put on the Rolling Stones!
having jane pauly present these guys she does'nt even know who the fk they are is discusting .
Musically they sound the same only better , good to see Michael McDonald back .
When I watch this segment, I get teary eyed and am in awe at how brilliant and humble these guys are. I know they understand how seminal they have been and still are to millions of listeners ranging from those that got to see them in their early years to those who are the grandchildren of the first fans.
Sure, there are many iconic groups still out there playing but few can compare to the overwhelming musical talent and strength of personality that the “core four” possess. It’s like hanging out with your cousins on Thanksgiving Day and throwing a football in the street. One feels “at home” with the Doobie Brothers.
They radiate goodness throughout and have that folksy, Smokey Americana slant to them. It’s comfort food to me in a world fraught with division. They unify and lift the spirit to a place where few others have lead and the world is blessed to have had and still have them.
And when Michael McDonald join the band we enjoyed listening to songs in which we couldn’t understand a word he was saying.
dinosaur bands, I love it…
I'll be a fan forever!
Brilliant! Cheers.
My first concert. 16 years old. They were warmed up by Dave Mason. Oh the memories. I still love both bands. Those were the days… ☺️
one of the best bands ever. michael mcdonald's voice is iconic.
When I get their latest CD I will have them all…
"DOOBIE BROTHERS! SMOKING DOOBIES WITH MA BROTHERS!" – Michael Scott
76 people think this isn't good? Smh.What a fool believes indeed.
Kind of get the feeling that the only reason Michael McDonald is touring with them is the fact it’s higher profile and a bigger payday for everyone involved. McDonald obviously fits in well, but at the same time still seems like the odd man out.
Hope yall tour nz
outstanding band!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
do tom and michael like each other or just tolerate each other? i like the doobies but im not huge fan im more of a greatest hits type of fan dont know the entire back story
I don’t know that band,until i turned on my car radio at GTAV and listen to 🎼What A Fool Believe🎧😍
Wheres Tiran?
Too funny
Fun!
gone are the days of Artistry, profound lyrics & a true voice in other words, Talent. Today's "music" is about silly words, trying be cool & catering to Elementary kids while using auto-tune to enhance their voice…. pathetic.
Goingsee then next weekend in New Orleans with my dad the memories from my childhood are riddled with the doobies being played by him in the car stuck and28 now still can’t get enough and ecstatic to finnaly see the live!!!!
Jane fn Pauly makes me want to PUKE up projectile with that worthless husband commies
1st time I saw them: August 22nd 1979. New Haven Coliseum.
Incredible show!!
Have seen them at least once every tour.
A GREAT LIVE BAND!!
The music of our youth; such a great band and thanks for the memories. ❤
Listen to the music…all the time.
They were in Az last night!! A little before my time, but, I must say, One of the Greatest bands ever to exist!! So happy they're still going strong and have they're sanity. Life on the road is tough and I highly respect these guys!! My nephew is driving one of they're buses on they're U.S.A tour 😍
It's so nice to see a band endure over 50 years, and set aside, and indeed forgive any acrimony that has occurred over the years. The Doobies are one of the rare bands that have never been strictly defined by set members, but has been fluid and changing over the years, but it has always worked. The two original singers/songwriters are still there, so anyone around them still constitutes the Doobie Brothers. While I prefer Tom's sound over Michael's, I still love Michael's contributions. I only wish that John Hartman & Tiran Porter were still there, as they were on the early albums, hence the "original Doobie sound" would be a bit fuller. For them, I believe it always has been about the music, which has allowed all the waxing & waning egos to survive in a band.
