2 words... "Black Water" A masterpiece! Great reaction channel, guys!
Love Black Water!
Every song that you react to from the 70’s (1973) you solidify that the 70”s was the best generation for music ! 🔥❤️🎸
Ain’t that the truth… lived it …loved it …wish I could go back!
The 60's would like a word with you.
@@jimr3882 okay the 60’s too! When you’re right you’re right…
The pre Michael McDonald Doobie Brothers were the BEST!!! More to check out from the "pre" era: "China Grove"; "Black Water"; "Jesus is Just Alright"; “Takin’ It to the Streets”; “Listen to the Music”, and so many more!
Gotta give some love to Tiran Porter, one of my favorite bass players. He never takes the obvious route, always playing something interesting that acts as a counterpoint to the main melody while still driving the song forward. And a great singer too!
Doobie harmony wouldn't be the same without Tiran's voice.
Spot on!! I started learning bass a couple of years ago and Tiran Porter created some of the most incredible bass lines I have ever heard. Beyond my current skill level, but working on getting there.
Tiran's a great player. It's his playing that first got me to follow the bass line in music. I still consider him to be one of the best.
One of my favorite Doobies songs is Tiran’s “For Someone Special “ ! Great bass and great vocals!
Some fantastic bass parts. Very original. Love his tone. Fat with what sounds like fresh flatwounds. That tone kills me.
A lot of us old school Doobie Brothers fans moved on to greener pastures when Michael McDonald took them in the "Minute by Minute" direction.
All Doobies music great! My favorite band.
The Doobie Brothers are a very unique group. Top notch from the beginning and when Michael McDonald joined the fold they became a different band but they were so versatile and professional that the Train kept on rolling!❤
Kinda have to think of them with Mike as if they were a different band. They were but both versions were really good.
Doobies already had a greatest hits album around 1976. This is one great American band.
Early Doobies vs. McDonald Doobies. Tom left the band for personal reasons and then came back. They are still in concert using both singers so yeah, check em out. Got to see the Tom version in college in the 70s.
My favourite Doobie brothers song. I just love that funky Gm7 chord driving the rhythm throughout the song and keeping the train runnin'. The early Doobies with Tom Johnston is the sound that I prefer. 🎶👍🏽
Saw Doobies live last year with Michael McDonald and Tom Johnston. OUTSTANDING!
They come with the intention that their audience will have a good time. Saw them in the late 70s and it was the same.
I'm envious!!
Harmonies are HARD HITTING and just straight up badass!
The Brothers STILL rock. Have fun all.
I’m Tommy, I’m 61 now and am a huge fan of your reactions. I can give you perspective on a man that lived when this music was coming out. The Doobies have always been an extremely under rated band. Check out Jesus is just all right. People may disagree with me. But it’s their best song.
I wish you both Peace and success. 😎
Oh I love that song too! And by the way I'm 64! Peace and love y'all!
That was originally a Buffalo Springfield song by Roger McGuinn.
@@scottblakey1603 I think you meant the Byrds ??
I'm 63, it truly was an amazing era!
@@martinl8574 there will never be another one like that. Peace!
This was originally just a intro jam .The fans response was always so big they decided to put words to it..
An engineering and mix masterpiece…..you can clearly hear all the instruments in their own space
This isxmy favecof thiers
One of their finest.
One of the most classic intros in music history
This song cooks, my favorite doobies song
Gentlemen: Tiran Porter is the fabulous bass player that grooves! I've loved the Doobie Brothers since junior high and I'm now 62. Keep up the good work, love your reactions and viewpoints. Nice to see some of the younger generation enjoying the golden age of rock n roll.
In the 70's this intro riff was one of the first you learned on a guitar. A combination of strumming and picking unique to Tom Johnston. Thanks for the fun memory.
Tommy Johnston (lead vocals on this track) came down with serious stomach issues and was replaced by McDonald and the band transitioned to a more laid back sound. A few years later Johnston returned, McDonald left and they returned to the rock sound to this day. Saw Three Dog Night in concert around 1972 and the Doobies, who nobody had ever heard of at the time, were the opening act and blew the roof off the place. A couple of weeks later Listen To The Music hit the airwaves.
Had just bought my first car when this song was popular. No air conditioning of course, so opened windows, summer nights and The Doobie Brothers on the radio.
Doobies always kick ass! ROLL TIDE!
70's music just hits different
It sure does! The BEST music ever in my opinion so thankful I lived then to experience it all!
Pass the dutchie on the left hand side brothers!
And no autotune… This was when real music was played❤
Lovin' the Tom Johnston rocker vibe here. Both he and McDonald were awesome leads. Whether it's rock or R&B, you can't go wrong with the Doobies.
been loving this song since i was a teenager 50 years ago. ty for playing it guys.
They are Brothers in the art of great music and toke💭💨
Ah, yes, The Doobie Brothers - so Americana. Check out their "China Grove" and "Black Water" (and others) as well!
The album this is from, The Captain and Me was released 50 years ago. I bought it that same year, when I was 13 on the advice of my older brother. Still love every track to this day and it is still one of my top 10 favorite all time albums. Not a weak track on there and worthy of an entire album reaction. Highlights for me include the Johnston and Simmons guitar opus Without You, Clear as the Driven Snow, Ukiah and Dark Eyed Cajun Woman. Jeff Skunk Baxter also of Steely Dan fame played pedal steel guitar on South City Midnight Lady…another banger. Shameful that it took till 2020 for these musical geniuses to be inducted into the R & R Hall of Fame!
You should contrast this version to the later version live from a show in Santa Barbara (1981-82) with Michael Mac... though he's not featured yet...BUT it is one of the most phenomenal live performances going down...from anyone. They with few exceptions like Pink Floyd and a few others that can play this well live...but they get smaller every year...as to who can play this badass live... And it is a Grove too...
Absolute Killer band of musicians.
Classic Doobies, a lot of soul but still a lot of rock.
Love the Doobie Brothers..
The most southern sounding bands from San Jose California ✌️
Great band. Many excellent songs.
Love them! Funky, soulful! Oh that harmonica! Makes you want to move and groove!❤️
That ent album was what got me into them. Tom Johnston is a beast
Same! I saw him when he went on his own - early 80’s - in a small bar just north of San Diego.
❤️ the pre-MMcD Doobies. I’ve seen them live without him, and with him, then all of them and their families at the Ventura County Fair. I’ve also seen a solo Tom Johnston. They will always be a favorite!! ☮️❤️
You have to dig the bass playing Tiran Porter...The lead singer Tom Johnston got liver disease and had to leave the band in the middle of a tour....Michael McDonald came in within a week and the tour resumed....Tom Johnston later came back.
Yea I enjoyed the bass on this one for sure
"Jesus is just alright with me" is a real good tune.
Dudes if AT ALL you GOT TO hear "ANY" of the many LIVE VERSIONS of this....♥️
I am so glad you did this version of the song. This is the real deal.
There is another more disco feeling.
The Doobies were the soundtrack at our house.
Takes me back to my teen years! The Doobies had a great groove... and those bongos added special sauce! Music from the 70's was fantastic. I enjoy watching younger generations discovering for themselves how talented the songwriters, instrumentalists and vocalists were to lay down tracks like this, without auto tune and other enhancements. No disrespect to today's artists--- because there are some great ones---but I wish everybody under 30 would listen to a few songs like this from 50 years ago to experience authentically great talent. Thanks for opening your minds to rock, funk, blues, and all the other genres that we got to enjoy. Hope it will keep this music alive and well!!
One of my all time fave songs ever!!
Never knew how good these guys were during my teen years...I just liked their name....Thanks for bringing them back so I can appreciate them with adult ears....
Love the Doobies, grew up listening to them...
Great groove and great reaction, gents!
I still listen to this driving down the highway in my car, window down, wind in hair. Beautiful groove. One of the Doobie's best.
I liked the old Doobies and old singer
Blackwater is still my favorite Doobie Brothers song by a LONG LONG shot.
I had to explain to my husband what a doobie is! And he loves all these am radio favorites. Trust me, he really didn't know. Such a nice clean cut guy. That's reason #8 why I married him. 😀
A great time for music. Just my opinion. The best Era for music. Thanks fellas for a great reaction!. Appreciate you 🙏 ❤
Cannot miss with this All Timer , gentlemen .
Pre McDonald is the real Doobies sound. ❤
The Doobies “What Were Once Vices are now Habits” was the sound track to my summer, the year it came out! Couldn’t get it off the record player!
Peace
Oh man y'all are just killing it this morning! This is the Doobie Brothers that I love! Forget about Michael McDonald this is the Doobie Brothers!!! Peace!
I’m noteven Aussie, but this song makes me feel like I am one,LRB FOREVER
Doobie brother were me and my friends party group back in our days
Yea I really enjoy them for a number of reasons. They own their own studio. So they understand music. Probably better than I ever will. I’m just a guy who loves music. I appreciate your response. Peace 😎
Talk about a traveling song!! "Rolling Down the Highway"...another traveling song.
Great reaction! Thanks for this, brought back some great memories. Had the pleasure of seeing them in concert back in ‘81, fantastic concert!
My dad loved the doobie brothers grew up listening to them
Now THAT is the Doobie Brothers!
Ist concert at 16,and my love of the Doobies started!
Love the Doobies!!
beautiful - still holds up 2023
Love the bass drop in the intro. Good pick gents. Well done.
without love... where would you be right now ??
Off what I consider to be the best overall album of all time…” The Captain and Me”.Most of their careers they had 2 in sync drummers in concert.
That opening riff !
I grew up in Santa Cruz and used to see these guys around town at the grocery store… I was a dumb kid but my brother would point them out. They were hippies…
😂😂😂❤🎸🥁
This was my walking music during lockdown, it drives you on.
As a 38 year old b-boy from Finland, I gotta say. Your reaction to his classic ham made me smile. Had to try out a couple of my old sets and hurt myself on the living room floor over here. That guitar riff just gets you! Maybe react to Jimmy Castor Bunch - It's Just Begun. When you get the chance.
That's from the Captain and Me album. They have four albums in a row that are flawless, that you should definitely add to your collection. In order they are: Toulouse Street, The Captain and Me, What Were Once Vices Are Now Habits, and Stampede. You can put any of them on and every song will grab your attention.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
The main guitar part is actually a "clean" electric guitar.
Simple chords, but not as easy to strum properly as it sounds.
This song is SO funky!
My favorite DB song... 🤙😎
Another cool track reminds me of my Dad who made sure our house was filled with good music growing up ❤ 🎶
That's my favorite Doobie Bros song! Love that band.
Tom Johnston on lead vox. Worked with him a few times as a live sound engineer in SF. Loved this band as a kid in the mid 70s. The lead guitar player, Jeff "Skunk" Baxter, also played on some really good Steely Dan albums.
"Black Water" if you haven't already heard is a Doobie masterpiece IMO.
They are coming to a venue in Charleston SC, right across the street from my son's apartment, in Sept. I worked a Doobie Bros "Farewell Tour" Show about 40 years ago. That's a long farewell...
Michael and his keys were a monstrous change in the Doobie sound.. more than the absence of Tommy's vocals.. Top notch American talent in the 70's..
I saw the Doobie Brothers with Pink Floyd and Santana at the Georgia Tech Stadium in Atlanta during the late 70s. Great concert.
What a concert!!
Ah yes my senior year high school. My second favorite of Tom Johnston era behind "Another Park Another Sunday" from their next album.
Early Doobies invoked that true Southern California 70s sound with Tom Johnstone on lead vocals and a very big sound. Without You probably exemplifies best their huge sound with their two drummers and over dubbed huge vocal harmonies. It's just a massive sound aln g with their arrangement of Jesus is Just All Right or Rock me in your Arms. McDonald outside of Takin it To the Streets on least vocals and keyboards really brought in a more R & B vibe with a bit less of that bombastic Rock sound. Both versions great in their own way.
You guys are my favorite reactors and I have listened to many others. Keep up the great work! Thanks.
A joy to hear this again. ❤
Part of soundtrack of life❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
They have a lot of great songs. One of my favorites is China Grove.
I know how much you guys have been enjoying Rare Earth - you would love "Hey Big Brother" - rocking song for sure!!
If the world could hold a cookout with the Doobies playing I think we could solve most of our problems
Great song, one of my favorite groups y’all got a good thing going here I’m a California born from Lompoc my dad was stationed at Vandenberg from 60-63
We took all the music for granted. Love to do it all again.
Excellent! I think you will enjoy "China Grove".
