![ROBERT PALMER - Addicted to Love [Official Video] FIRST TIME COUPLE REACTION | The Dan Club Select](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/0Yk4UeRP1JU/mqdefault.jpg)
If you haven't yet check out Long Train Running and China Grove from pre Michael Macdonald era.
Absolutely, 2 more of my favorite songs ever❤
Long Train Running is a classic.
Long Train Running is a jam you'll both enjoy.
Clear as the Driven Snow from The Captain and Me is one of their best yet least known songs, a must listen !!!!
Indeed it is... as is Southside Midnight Lady. It's much better live imo 1996 version.
Tom and Michael wrote most of the band's hits, but, honestly, Patrick wrote a lot of their most interesting songs. I'd add "Toulouse Street," "Neal's Fandango," "I Cheat the Hangman," and "Daughters of the Sea" to that list as well (though Nick has already heard the latter 2 in previous marathons).
@@ComeOnIsSuchAJoy Regarding Patrick's contributions, I couldn't agree more.
Clear as the Drive Snow is almost a prog song. So good.
A great song Nick has reacted to it in a marathon last fall.
My favorite song of all time. Absolutely the happiest song ever written and while I really like Michael McDonald, Tom Johnston IS the Doobie Brothers.
Nick and Lex, definitely go see the Doobie Brothers if you have the chance
The Doobies pre-Michael McDonald made great songs like this, one of the best songs of the 70s
Lex, I used to think the Bee Gees song "Jive Talking" was "Shy Donkey", so you're not alone here.
This song was the song that got them noticed, way back in 1972. This song started everything.
When Michael Mcdonald joined the Doobie Brothers, they changed from a Rock Band to a Pop Band.
Yes, go see the current Doobie Brothers.
Yeah, and won grammy awards, songban record of the year.
WITH MM.
Check out "South City Midnight Lady"!
Yes - 100 %
I'm 65 yrs old. I'm a guitarist and the 60's, 70's & 80's was very inspirational for me. Awesome music and artists !! Try China Grove. You will like it !!
I love the Doobies as much as I love Steely Dan, and that's saying something, their music never gets old or stale, I always hear new things in it.
THIS is the Doobie bros.. The bass Tiran Porter puts on a master class on how to add enough bounce to a blues/southern rocks song to make you dance but avoid any movement at all towards pop. If you isolate the bass it is a very sophisticated, with very little repetition. When I listen it can be hard to tell what notes are being played and which are implied (filled in by your mind)..
Tiran Porter was the best bassist for the Doobies. I always liked his style. Sad that he and John Hartman never rejoined them.
Actually, Michael McDonald *did* re-join the band 5 years ago; the band now consists of him and guitarists Tom Johnston (who wrote and sang this song), Patrick Simmons (who wrote and sang "Black Water" -- and is the only one who's been in the band since the beginning), and John McFee. Alas, bass player Tiran Porter is no longer with them, and all of their drummers from back in the day have now died.
Fodder for "This is Spinal Tap"
If you like the bass on this song wait until you hear the bass on Takin’ it to the street! It’s just brilliant
At Nick, Robert Cray is a fab guitar player! If he is opening for doobies in your town like he is in my town, that’s a multiplier. “Just another notch in my guitar” is killer.
Robert Cray is a must-see! He is a great blues guitarist and singer.
Friday night is wine night and tonight is special, I'm 69! We all loved the DBs in the early 70s.
Mr Music 🤣 This is such a happy song.
Go see them…. They have a fantastic catalog of music. You won’t be disappointed.
The Doobies got 3 main singer !!!! First period with Long train running, China groove, Listen to the music, Jesus is just alright with Tom Johnston and Pat Simmons. Later on after the departure of Johnston, Michael McDonald joined the band and was the main singer then (What a fool believes etc). Actually so simple. PS in this song it is Tom Johnston, but in the short bridge part it is Pat Simmons !!!
The energy in their music is like a shot of pure adrenaline.
"Listen to the Music" is one of the best rock songs ever written and recorded...that melody...those harmonies...
BANJO. There's a banjo in the chorus. Can't get more rootsy than that.
They are definitely worth seeing. I saw them 2 years ago, and they were absolutely amazing!
I saw them a few years ago on the same bill with Chicago and they were still great.
Most of us old-timers usually "prefer" the older versions of artists like Elton John, Chicago, Yes and The Doobie Brothers. I'm not sure why that is. I've always felt a good song is a good song. Doesn't matter who, when or what. Maybe if we got to experience it all for the first time, at the same time, like you get to, we might lean more towards your way of thinking. It's not that the older stuff isn't as good. It's just that the earlier stuff has a special place in my heart. But one thing you don't get to experience as much as we do is the nostalgic effect. these older songs really put me back in the day. Ah, memories! Try "Another Park, Another Sunday" from The Doobie Brothers. Or "Jesus Is Just Alright". A great cover by them.
The banjo is the thing that drives that wonderful chorus!
Michael Mcdonald does still join the Doobie Brothers for some concerts. When you get a chance I hope you check out their songs: "Long Train Runnin" & "China Grove".
I think one word to describe early Doobies (pre M.M) is "Happy" music. Tommy Johnston was a gem, I even bought a solo album of his because I loved his voice so much
Great reaction go see them for sure I’m Pretty sure Michael is touring with them this summer. He just had a memoir come out called What a fool Believes. He toured with them last summer. You will hear Tom Johnston, Patrick Simmons and Michael McDonald will all sing they are the main singers and songwriters for the Doobies. All eras of the Doobies are good they are the same band they just evolved and explored and they are all still soul brothers and friends so to all the people that only identify with one era of the band let it go, it’s been 40 years. Thanks Lex I think Tom Johnston has always been Mr. Music and let’s all just Listen to the Music. Peace and Love. ❤️
That "Phaser" effect was accomplished by physically touching on the the tape reels and slightly slowing it down with a little varying pressure throwing it out of "phase". Itchy Coo Park by the Small Faces has a nice example of that trick also. Electronic Phase Shifters were invented to create that sound easier and on anything.
All of their classics were before he joined the band. I would go! 🤘
They are motorcycle music from north California! Their hits pre-McDonald are radio rock staples.
I like both pre Michael McDonald and the McDonald eras of the Doobies, but prefer the early era.
I Cheat The Hangman is one of my favorite early song.
Everything before McDonald's joining is better. Feels organic
Doobie Brothers with Robert Cray opening act at my Amphitheater this summer. Bucket list. Robert Cray is soooo good! Go see them
Kevin11
Southside Midnight Lady, a live video from the Wildlife concert (1996), a definite country vibe. I love it.
Some bands are just better live.
I have a promotional copy of the CD. I like the extended intro to 'China Grove'.😎👍
Tom Johnston was a good singer/songwriter. Funny that Jeff Baxter was one of the guitar players with early SD. Micheal McDonald was back up singer for the Dan and many other acts. Later in the 70's Johnston had left the Doobies and went on his own. Meanwhile, Jeff Baxter and MM joined the Doobies and changed that band a lot. I think some of MM songs were SD influenced. This year, McDonald, Johnston and Simmons (original Doobie) announced they are touring together. Steve Winwood is joining them. That will be a GREAT show. So much talent. BTW, one of my favorite early Doobie's song is 'Black Water', very cool tune. Great stuff N+L. Always watching..
Why do you say Tom Johnson WAS a good singer, guitar player, and song writer? Obviously he's not dead, so ?
If the lineup has Johnston, Simmons and McFee up front, you'll swear your hearing the cut off the Album. Don't miss it.
"Natural Thing" from the Captain and Me, "Another Park Another Sunday" from What Were Once Vices....... Great songs...
This song was a monster hit when it was first released. You couldn’t turn on the radio without hearing it. It was the song that put them on the map.
It’s kind of strange hearing it now, as I never noticed the banjo in the background before this. Another really cool track that features banjo and is also very atypical for the band that wrote it is “Journey of the Sorcerer” by The Eagles.
About five years ago I saw The Doobie Brothers doing the support for Steely Dan. Methinks you two would have enjoyed that gig!
Oh, the love Lex has for Nick is superb.
I never knew their relationship was a menage-a-trois with Mr. Music! :D
Love the Doobie Brothers! I would love for you to react to Another Park, Another Sunday, by them, if you haven't already. Great song!
This song was their first radio hit and for most of us back then our introduction to the band!
The early version of The Doobie Brothers were the best especially with Tom on guitar. We all love Michael McDonald but before he got there it was more rock and guitar oriented. As a cannabis connoisseur, you can't beat that name either. The story was they obviously smoked a bunch of weed and couldn't think of a name for the band so somebody said how about the Doobie Brothers and they were like okay whatever sure haha
Different style between the 2 different iterations, enjoy both, phenomenal musicians excellent songwriting all around.
This song was a huge part of the soundtrack to my summer before starting college. Will love the Doobies forever ! Saw them live right after the LP Captain and Me came out. Great show.
I discover every day that I've been changing the words to songs for 40 yrs😊😂😂😂😂
... I can't believe it took you two THIS long to listen to this. THIS, is classic rock. This IS the Doobie Brothers (original lineup) and that lineup's biggest song.
For those people that don't like the Michael McDonald era I would suggest listening to the Living On The Fault Line album. Not enough people show love for that album and it is fantastic!
Such a wonderful reaction to one of the all-time greats.❤
Interestingly, channel friend JustJP also recently reacted to this song. Coincidence? 🤔
Yes! Go see them. Great musicians and great show. I have seen them twice.
Michael McDonald has been back with the Doobie Brothers the last several years. Check the ad and the promo picture, and if he's in the picture he will be there. They just played in Austin in February, and he's in the band. I've seen the Doobies many times dating back to the 70s, but the last time I saw them in 2019 was the best of all. They sounded better than ever!! You all should definitely go. And FYI, the Doobie Brothers were from northern California, and CSN was a California band that started in Laurel Canyon in the late 60s.
As many times as I heard this song on the radio back in the day, I never tired of it. Just a happy, very well-made song.
This song is their concert closer and Tommy Johnston, the lead guitarist and vocalist is a monster talent of this or any band. Saw them together with Chicago in Austin. All thriller - no filler.
Caught the 2024 tour in Raleigh, NC on 7/31. Tom Johnston, Pat Simmons, and Michael McDonald were all there, and it was fantastic. Loved it.
Great reaction. I love both eras of the Doobies.
FYI: The last few tours, had a complete Doobies band with songs from all eras and both Mike McDonald and Tom and whoever was still alive from the earlier band. Maybe they stopped that now.
Great to be back to the Doobies again guys so TYVM, there is a "Playing For Change Song Around The World" of this featuring 3 members of the Doobies in it as well as a mass of great musicians from all over the world. Worth checking it out as well as it is a wonderful rendition of this classic.
Keep Safe Keep Strong 🦘🦘🦘🦘🎵🎵🎵🎵🎶🎶🎶🎶
My local station used this as a tagline "WOW, listen to the music!" They sponsored the Doobs at Peony Park in Omaha. I tried to win tickets, but my mom said No Way No How because was like 9 or 10! Finally saw the Doobs with Journey in 2016, no Michael but they were fantastic!
Whoa, whoa, whoa….Mr. Music. 😊
Hey guys FYI Michael McDonald IS back with the Doobie Brothers FULL TIME. He will be touring with the band on this summer tour.
Masters of strings and harmonies.
Michael MacDonald replaced Tom Johnson for a number of years due to his illness. I watched Michael in bands in St. Louis early in his career. I even booked his band Blue for a fraternity party in the early 70's. Michael is the pride of Ferguson, Missouri, a St. Louis suburb
Nick your accent is endearing and we love it ❤ I have one word for you...MONEY. Its a song by Lyle Lovett and nobody has done a reation to it.😮You would Love it🎉
That's quite all right, Lex. For over 50 years I thought Jimi Hendrix said... " 'scuse me... while I kiss This Guy!" only to finally find out his was singing about "tripping out" and really said... " 'scuse me, while I kiss The Sky!". I'm sure it won't be the last lyrics revelation I discover !!
You two are so entertaining to watch! Btw, you mentioned this band is versatile, well on that note, they do a song called “Rio” off of the “Takin It To The Streets” album that has a very Latin feel to it. Oh my gosh what a song, hope you guys check this one out someday.
The band was planning to do a 50th Anniversary tour with both Johnston and McDonald with Simmons, but the lockdowns happened. Not sure if they’ll still do it this time around.
93rd!!!🎉🎉🎉
One of my GOATFMY (…from my youth)
As a 52 year old fan, I’m ashamed to say that I don’t know this vocalists name but his vocals on the song are out of this world.
Ooooooo, does Nick not know .38 Special??!!🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
9:40- Crosby, stills, Nash (&sometimes young)
11:00- yes lex. It always makes me grin
They are actually playing in Indy in August...and Michael McDonald will be with them....they are currently touring so if you can see them, you should.
12:37 I love that you both are able to laugh at yourselves. So cute. Doobies are awesome “feel-good” music.
Their second radio hit( after Jesus is Just Alright). Their first coupla' albums were fire.
What a great song - that banjo in the chorus!
As other comments have pointed out, Michael McDonald IS on this tour. Verified this by looking at the dates on his website.
Miss hearing lyrics is great!!! We all do it. LOL.
You two are so beautiful together. I love your reactions. 😊😊 Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young. Don’t forget The Little River Band for harmonies!
Last year when they toured, Michael was with them.
you guys are in for a surprise Nick and Aiexia! The Doobie Brothers are touring with Michael McDonald as part of the group and Tom Johnston too- and Aug 29th they are in Denver! also special guests are either Steve Winwood or Robert Cray band!
Yaaaaay!! Thank you for letting us know!!!! 😃
THE DOOBIE BROTHERS - " It Keeps You Runnin " Studio Version with the Logo cover of a man wearing Metallic Green Glasses 🤓 or also the (2009 Remaster) Same exact Studio Version with high quality sound.Bothv versions from 1978 original release
ABSOLUTELY go see the Doobie Brothers - with or without MM. They are as great either version, and i've seen them both with and without and MM solo with is own band. So DEF get Tix!
First Doobie Brothers song I ever heard, and at the time it seemed unlike anything else on the radio. But I now realize it had a sort of George Harrison (Phil Spector) "Wall of Sound" quality.
Their hits are great. The Doobies are one of those bands with high quality deep cuts, a small sampling:
Eyes of Silver
Another Park, Another Sunday
Sweet Maxine
I Cheat the Hangman
Texas Lullaby
Neil's Fandango (tasty instrumental)
And that's just the tip of the iceberg of deep cuts
✌️&🎶
Go to the show and listen to the music. The Doobies have a lot of good music.
Michael M toured with Doobie Brothers last year so it is possible he is still doing it this year! We saw them! Just check their site!
This song was the reason that I picked up the guitar close to 50 years ago. Ironically, I still can't play it worth a darn. 😁 But the Doobie Brothers have always brought a level of musicianship to their music that few bands have ever been able to match. I think I've seen them at least three times in concert over the years, the most recent a year or two with Michael McDonald. I personally prefer the material they did with Tom Johnston, but I still like the blue-eyed soul of MM.
The best eras the early 70 stuff
I saw them in a Miss. Casino in 2009, didn't expect much tbh, they sounded the same as in the 70s to a tee. Watch the Good Morning America show in like 2016 where they played *China Grove* to an in house mini concert, they were all over 60-65 and the kids were laughing at their moms and dads for being excited to listen to these old men, then they rocked the house down , the kids loved it. If you get a chance to see them, they are still very good, unlike most old bands. P.S. they were much better with Johnston as the lead singer. More hits by far. This is my Fav. Doobie Bro. song.
Definitely go see them live!!!
This is such a happy song. A slight touch of psychedelia here.
1 other clip - the Doobies played a venue called Chateau Liberte in the Santa Cruz mountains - pretty much 1/2 between San Jose and Santa Cruz which are about 20 miles apart. The Tubes, members of the Grateful Dead, Moby Grape, Sons of Champlin, Hot Tuna & more. You can see the scene in the early 1970s in the San Francisco Bay Area, even includes the infamous Zig Zag man painted on the bottom of the pool. czcams.com/video/TiQwv-_906s/video.htmlsi=dNZyQtyvQpLgK1__
What a weird coincidence! Here is a song about a woman named Lexi who gets Doobie Brothers lyrics wrong. [Cue Twilight Zone theme] It's called "Oh Wah, Mister Music", and it goes like this: czcams.com/video/G126GizZBtA/video.html
I love preeeee Michael McDonald. I never could understand his mooing
Me too. Check out pre-Buckingham/Nicks Fleetwood Mac. Hypnotized from the the Mystery to me Album is fire.
A band-ruining lounge singer.
Amigo, “Doobie Bros.” are from San José, Calif. (Silicon Valley) The S.F. Bay Area. Both Tom Johnston and Pat Simmons met at San José State University. “Creedance Clearwater Revival” are from The S.F. Bay Area also, El Cerrito ( outside Oakland). Check out “Tower of Power” ( What is Hip, You’re Still a Young Man, So Very Hard to Go) from Oakland, CA…….SanJoséBob
Michael McDonald also played with Steely Dan. Check out the live album The New York Rock and Soul Review. It features McDonald, Donald Fagen, Boz Skaggs, Phoebe Snow, Eddie and David Brigati and Charles Brown. Lots of talent on display.
Go to the show if you're able to. Even if McDonald's not gonna be there, it'll be a great show. Every song from the pre McDonald Doobie Brothers albums are all hits IMO. They did one concert where they played every song from the Toulouse Street and Captain and Me albums.
Definitely worthwhile seeing them. See you there, and maybe at Fiddler's Green on July 31st to see Neil Young. I wore the grooves out on The Captain and Me and Stampede in high school.
This track is one of the greatest crossover hits of the 1970s - Popular on FM rock radio, in discos and in the charts. With its great rhytmic playing, its soaring harmonies and the different genres (those rock guitar licks at the end for example) peeking through occasionally, I personally consider it one of the masterpieces of guitar bands in any era. I hope you were hearing it a lot better than we were here, cos it was way down in your mix and sounded very flattened - but maybe that's what CZcams did in the upload process.
I think the only original member in the Doobie Brothers is Patrick Simmons, who is one of the guitarists and was the writer and singer in Black Water. Another of his, which I really love, and I can guarantee you two will as well is called South City Midnight Lady. Please check this one out! It's so soothing.
Lead Vocalist Tom Johnston is OG
@@bopep1368 Absolutely. I actually like his era better than the Michael Mcdonald era, although I enjoy both.
Mr. Music....................hhahahahaha............Nice!
Now I will never listen to this song without hearing “Mister Music.”
Michael McDonald returned to the band for their latest tour! They are from the "South," but it's the South Bay (San Jose, California)
The Doobies like all bands do encores, but when they perform Listen to the Music that is the end of the show. They have ended all of their shows with that song for at least 20-30 years.
Michael McDonald is touring with them again this year.
I saw the Doobie Brothers with Steely Dan and they were excellent. No Michael McDonald and I wouldn't hesitate to go again- Don't miss them!!
