You all are the Sugar Honey Iced Tea!!! Super Appreciative of our connection.
Quartet
I believe you were trying to get out "barbershop quartet".
The Doobie Brothers were close but as far as I know never tried for or managed the "fifth voice" a real barbershop quartet can do. (That's when their voices' harmonies merge into what sounds like a fifth singer's voice.)
Totally not the black guy me lol
Did you catch the lyrics. Ol black water, keep on running, Mississippi moon going to keep shining on me. Moon Shine is the most potent hard liquor you'll ever drink. The song is about running and drinking moonshine.
The " black guy " you speak of was the great bass player Tiran Porter...He did sing the low harmonies and he was a student in my mom's high school English class in LA !
That's awesome
The vocalist here is Patrick Simmons, which is the second one from the right. I think this is before Michael McDonald joined the band. He's whos voice sounds kind of cottony. He had a solo album with a good song called, "I Keep Forgettin' (Every Time You're Near)."
Yep, second from the right. There's an episode of What's Happenin' where the Doobies guest star and sing this song, and Patrick Simmons sings lead.
@@mel_bee I used to love that show, Roger and those glasses he wore intrigued me.
I really liked them best before Michael McDonald... I guess he was a good singer, but just not my taste... lol
@@GinMae Agreed! The original lineup was WAY better, more authentic classic Southern-esque rock.
Michael McDonald also had a stint with the group Chicago & Steely Dan's "Peg" as the chorus background vocals and then also had a duet hit in the mid to late 80's with Patti Labelle called "On My Own"
He is playing a fiddle.The black guy is the bass player.They all harmonize,
The Doobie Bros. have a lot to offer.
Yup, when you’re in a tux, playing some Mozart, it’s a violin. If you’re in jeans, playing bluegrass, it’s a fiddle
Why must he be black?stupid.Are you racist?
@@RobRager A violin has strings, a fiddle's got strangs.
Quartet is the word you're looking for I believe. This was one of my dads fave bands and songs I love this song bc it reminds me of him and it makes me tap my feet. Watching your reaction to the end brought me so much joy. Which your channel usually does. Thanks for the happiness
The radio station played this song about 50 times per day in the early 70's when I was about 10 years old. One of the songs I didn't mind listening to over and over.
This is a classic- ripe with soul and blues to keep you tapping your shoes.
Awww honey , your reaction was sooooo genuine!!! Seriously , your eyes, your head, your shoulders , your surprise at each pivotal moment in this song was truly genuine. I could tell you’ve not heard this one before! Great song! Great reaction!! ✌🏼💜
🌟Here's my perfect reaction list🌟
Tom Johnson - Doobie Brothers:
"China Grove"
"Listen To The Music"
"Long Train Runnin"
Michael w/ Doobie Brothers
"Takin It To The Streets"
"Minute By Minute"
"You Belong To Me"
Michael Solo:
"Keep Forgettin"
"Yo Mo Be There" w/ James Ingram
"On My Own" w/Patty LaBelle
"Sweet Freedom"
Boring Boring, listen to great Doobie songs like Eyes of Silver, Dark Eyed Cajun woman, I Cheat The Hangman, Road Angel, Rainy Day Cross Road Blues, Spirit, Texas Lullaby, Clear as the Driven Snow. Natural Thing, TELL Me What You want, and literally 40 more INCREDIBLE songs instead of the same old, same ol. You have no Idea what you are missing. Listen to all of these diamonds and you'll never listen to the radio songs again! Show some balls and enjoy the diamonds that follow!
@@kenperk9854 Well if it is his first time hearing it, it isn't boring. I like the deep tracks too, but this is a damn good song. Just because you've heard it a thousand times doesn't mean he has. I like all their music, deep tracks and hits alike.
that's Johnston
Saw them in '19, touring with Steely Dan. Tom Johnston was still killing it - those are my favorite Doobies... Well, except for the ones I rolled myself
*Thank you so much for this amazing list, Jennifer! I'm doing one Right NOW!!!*
Next you should check out Takin' It To the Streets and Long Train Running.
Who remembers watching the Doobies on What's Happening,where Re Run tried to bootleg the concert? LOL!
You brought me way back. A much better time.
"My name is Roger Thomas. Which Doobie you be?" is a classic 😂
When I was a kid, my alarm clock was set to "wake up to music" (radio) and almost every morning this song was on rotation when my alarm went off. A great song to wake up to. You were in music ministry if I heard correctly, then you definitely need to check out "Jesus is just Alright", one the Doobies best, and my fave.
Radio back then was predictable, popular tunes came on once an hour so once you got it down!
I think you refused to get out of bed til it came on. lol. try Earache my Eye on that theme
Our music growing up was FUN!!! Never stopped smiling!!!
"Barbershop Quartet" is the old time 4 guys singing and harmonizing together...
Makes you smile and long for lazy summer days every time you hear it.
Patrick Simmons who was the guitarist for the Doobies was lead on this song. Michael McDonald was not inthe band yet
Favorite song by the dobbie brothers.
The voice you're looking for is MICHAEL MCDONALD. Literally, one of the most recognizable voices in the business.
The original singer for The DB was Tom Johnson ("Listen To The Music", "China Grove", & "Long Train Runnin'") "Black Water" was lead by Patrick Simmons (guitar), who wrote it & was the first of the two of two hits in 1975.
🌟🌟🌟Michael McDonald: who had sang with Steely Dan joined as a fill in for Tom but his vocals, well, they kept him. ("Takin It To The Streets", "Minute By Minute", & "What A Fool Believes" - which you heard.) I will say this - hardcore DB fans seem to gravitate to Tom Johnson. Everyone always loves an original, right?
Michael's solo career is legendary:
"KEEP FORGETTIN" Lots of people have sampled it. The one every immediately thinks of is the very famous song "Regulate" by Warren G & Nate Dogg. It's a must hear after this even though they stole it. Yep, they had to pay up.
"Yo Mo Be There" w/ James Ingram
"On My Own" w/Patty LaBelle
"Sweet Freedom"
All songs mentioned are big songs, Van & should be reacted to. Tom has the original DB sound & they are bangers. Michael brought a different sound & they are hits. Solo - he kills it. There's too many songs to name where he is background. Believe me, now that you know the voice, you'll know it when you hear it. 😉
Hey, Jen! We seem to excited about the same groups! You just look way too young to know so much about them!
MM is my third favorite vocalist on the Doobies. 😉😎
@@TheDivayenta Hi Karen! I also noticed we are on several of the same channels! What a huge compliment you gave me - thank you! Very sweet, my friend. 😊 I was born in 71 & turned the big 50 this year. I was raised by my Grandpa who was a musician (Big Band Leader). We talked a lot of music & he gave me the passion. In my spare time I've always chosen to read books about artists, music magazines, internet stories, & every since YT came along I lovvvvveeee watching channels like "Professor of Rock" or videos from the artists themselves. I truly enjoy reading everyone's comments because people share such fun facts or their own personal experiences. I love how music is one of the biggest things that ties us all together. What a beautiful thing. ❤✌🎵 See you in the comments!
@@jennhurl it’s fun to meet nice folks like you here! I’m passionate about music too. I lead a neighborhood women’s song circle and we sing anything and everything for fun - must have music always. Love Professor of Rock!
Michael McDonald ruined the doobie bros
This is one of my FSOAT's (Favorite Songs of All Time). I remember it playing on the juke box in the junior high commons area back in about 1975.
Oh, and Barbershop Quartet is what you're thinking of, I beleive.
QUADRAPHONICS WERE REALLY GETTING POPULAR IN THE 70'S SO YOU COULD ACTUALLY HEAR SEPERATE SOUNDS OUT OF DIFFERENT CORNERS OF YOUR VEHICLE , THIS SONG WAS A FAVORITE . THE REACTION IS GREAT 🤘🤘
Quadraphonic . We had a few albums that were quadraphonic . Blue oyster cult has a fantastic album for quad
You gotta do Long Train Running with Tom Johnston singing (far right) The Doobies are one of the best bands ever!!!
In 50 years I never even thought about the color of who is singing…playing…dancing….. writing….
A fiddle is a violin that’s been dropped.
Me either. I don't listen to music to guess the color of the singer. I enjoy the music and meaning of the song. I never saw the need to put a color to it.
No a violin is a fiddle that ain't had no beer spilt on it yet.
By The Way,, Patrick Simmons (White) Not Only Sang Lead Vocals,, But Also Wrote The Song & Is Also A Founding Member Of The Doobie Brothers.
Obsessed! I was obsessed with this song when it came out! It was the very first single I bought and I'd played it over and over and over on my record player. Still a favorite!
Been a fan since 1971 and got to see them live in 73 along with Ten Years After and Rare Earth back then we had some great concerts and some even greater music glad to see you young people discovering it
Omg....this song....so many memories.....so many things have happened...so much time....
It's a violin (actually being played as a fiddle. There's a slight bridge difference, but other than that, fiddle is violin.)
A violin has strings...a fiddle has strangs.
It’s a fiddle when you buy it and a violin when you sell it.
Playing Mozart? It's a violin. Playing Charlie Daniels? It's a fiddle.
My understanding is that "fiddle" means pressing the bow against two strings at once, which produces that particular sound.
I have no idea if this is actually true, and I honestly can't remember where I heard or read that
@@PhycoKrusk Nope. They are simply interchangeable terms for the same instrument.
Miss my dad. Shitty old Ford pickup going to hard labor jobs rocking out to this. We sang back and forth on this one.
Music like this can bring us all together
This song was on the radio of the school bus taking us on a student council field trip then interrupted to tell us about the Twin Towers falling.
The Doobies are one of the very few bands from 50 years ago that still tour with most original members intact. And they sound every bit as good as they ever did, if not better. A testament of their dedication to their craft.
💯 awesome in concert ! 😉
A "quartet," I believe, is what you're looking for. This is my favorite iteration of the band. My folks were big fans and took me to see them three times in the early to mid-seventies. Check out "Long Train Runnin'," or "Listen to the Music." ✌
Your parents sound like they were excellent parents! Any parents who loved the Doobie Brothers and actually took their kids to three of their concerts are alright in my book! 🎸🎸🎸
My parents were as square as square could be. My dad only listened to old time fiddle music from the Maritimes and my mom was too timid to sort herself out over music, afraid that my dad would have a fit, so they hardly listened to anything except country radio. And what I mentioned. I grew up in the 60s and 70s (born in 1958) on Motown and rock. What years those were for music!!!
About the year 2000 or so my mom told me that she actually liked Elvis Presley back in the 50s, 60s and 70s. You could have pushed me over with a feather. She said my dad would have freaked out if she listened to him so she did it vicariously through my sisters' Elvis records. As I said, my dad was very square. In fact, that is an insult to squares. He was just a hill-billy red-neck for the most part, who thought he knew everything but hardly knew anything in reality. It is sad to have a parent like that. He hated rock and roll and called them "long haired hippie Christers!" With a curse. Anyway, as you can see I did not get along with him and didn't even much like him.
Feel good music
This 1 is fun to sing man
Fiddle all the way! (Same thing as violin 😎) imma sucker for a good fiddle
There are two iterations of The Doobie Brothers: the Tom Johnson years and the Michael McDonald years. Yes, Tom rejoined the group after he recovered from his illness, but the difference in sound between the two leads is palpable. I MUCH prefer the TJ years. Their early stuff is just amazing. And this is my favorite DB song by far. Thanks for the reaction. I loved watching your eyes during the outro.
I agree, the TJ years were great...because they were one of the groundbreaking bands who created the standards others have since, tried to meet. There are so many elements that went into the DB, that made them the iconic band they are. When MM came in, he saved the band. His lead, his songs, the inspiration that there would be DB music still, yet and again. In the time between when TJ left and MM started, the DB sucked as a live band. Understandable, and for a while they had the reputation of being a studio only band. I like all the iterations of the DB. MM evolved their music, refined their sound. I’m particularly fond of a DB horn player, the late Cornelius Bumpus. After Corny left the DB he played with Steely Dan for many years. Like the times they’re from, a point came when they were forced to adapt and change to just to survive. Thankfully, it clicked. They more than survived, they flourished with a bold new sound, while retaining the charm of the DB. One of my all time favs!
I prefer the TJ sound as well. But “Takin it to the Street” is a banger
@@viacrucis2509 ...”It keeps you runnin’ “ has a place on my life’s record player.
Yup, the TJ years definitely win out for the overall vibe of the music. That's not to take anything away from MM, because his voice is amazing in its own right, but I just felt that the Doobies vibe changed with him in a direction that wasn't as good--not bad, just not as good.
This song is sung by Patrick Simmons though.
Great reaction! Gotta do Doobie Brothers' - Long Train Runnin' and Listen to the Music.
🤩👍👍❤❤❤Black Water! One my top fave Doobie Brother songs from the early years✌🌼🌻🌼
I love me some Doobie Brothers!!! Especially Black Water. So much fun
ALL MUST HEAR CLASSICS..THE DOOBIE BROTHERS "JESUS IS JUST ALRIGHT",,"CHINA GROVE",, "YOU BELONG TO ME",, "REAL LOVE",, "LONG TRAIN RUNNIN",, "LISTEN TO THE MUSIC",, "TAKIN' IT TO THE STREETS",, "IT KEEPS YOU RUNNIN",, "DEPENDIN' ON YOU",, "ROCKIN' DOWN THE HIGHWAY" & "TAKE ME IN YOUR ARMS" & "ECHOS OF LOVE"
I'm born 1959 and our music was the shit however I was more into Blues.. love southern music..
"a bad year for labour and a good year for wine", per Post WWII Blues by Al Stewart
"Dark Eyed Cajun Woman" is an excellent blues song by the Doobie Brothers from "The Captain and Me."
This was one of my favorite songs when I was a kid. Love some Doobies!! ✌❤
"Jesus Is Just Alright With Me" "China Grove" "Listen to the Music" "Dependin' on You" "It Keeps You Runnin'" "Minute By Minute" "What a Fool Believes"...the Doobies are the shit!
'Pretty Dope' is a great way to describe the Doobie Brothers.
Thank you so much for simply enjoying.
I have always loves this song and the Doobie brothers
so beautiful
Gotta check out their version of Take Me In Your Arms. A rocking take on an old Motown tune
There is no one singer in this group. You will learn the difference in voices and who it is.
That's the cutest thing I've heard. Is that a violin. Lol
Please check out Steely Dan. I will personally guarantee that you will never be disappointed. 🌺✌️
I enjoyed your reaction so much. Finding out how cool it is to listen to all this old music with headphones. Makes a big difference.
Hey bro I had the privilege of seeing the Doobie Brothers and a band opened up for him called the Hooters and that the tour was called getting a high across America
Ooh!!! Love this song now and when it came out. Sitting in a circle all stoned and singing our hearts out. Funky Dixie land ...
If you check out long train runnin' live...it is the black one singing! Plus, it kicks ass!
The voice in the other song is Michael McDonald
This song has different lead
Check out I keep forgetting by Michael mcdonald
Or sweet freedom
Is a movie this song is in called running scared
Gregory hinze and Billy crystal it's good flick
This song is set in New Orleans. "Take that street car that's going Uptown". So any "seasoning" would probably be Tony Chacere's. 😊💜💚💛✌️
Or Slap Ya Mama!
Thx for the teenage memories sir…Doobies we’re awesome 👏
“Sounds more stringy than windy” 😁😄😆😂🤣
That, my friend, is a fiddle. A violin has strings, a fiddle has strangs. 🤣
That smile on your face at 6:45 is from the soul. Love it.
The Doobies are a true American Band. Got some country, got some folk, some bluegrass some rock and roll, put it all together and you get the Doobies. I like Toms' singing more than Michaels' but it is all super groovy. Puff Freely!
FIDDLE, son . . . . . ain't no violins in "country" . . . . .
😁
LOL! I was thinking the same thing!
A violin has strings, a fiddle has strangs.
Big Facts!
Fiddle is a violin on speed
They are kind of singing at the end "a round." It's a type of harmony where one member sings the beginning of a verse and then a few beats later a response is played and this is done over again where the second time around starts before the response is finished. The best known version of a round is Row Row your Boat.
My favorite Doobie Brothers song
Southern rock is always a great choice for just chilling
The Doobie Brothers tune to do is Long Train Running ( original studio version)
Yes I remember that's how I fell in love with anothother park another Sunday
The best album for headphones ever - "What Were Once Vices Are Now habits" - I had the pleasure of buying the album first edition in 1974 and flat wore it out. Great reaction, your good...
thanks for reviewing this music from my youth and appreciating it in the same genuine way that I do!
If you are in a tux or evening gown or playing a classical piece it's a violin. Otherwise it's a fiddle LOL. Great harmonies is a trademark of this band.
If you're drinking champagne it's a violin. If you're drinking moonshine it's a fiddle.
Doobie brothers a band my older siblings played a lot ,grew up hearing them
Michael McDonald also had a stint with the group Chicago & Steely Dan's "Peg" as the chorus background vocals and then also had a duet hit in the mid to late 80's with Patti Labelle called "On My Own"
My favorite song by them.
LOVE The Doobie Brothers! One of the most fun harmonizing songs ever.
My father in law has a chest FULL of 45’s.
My dream is to have the money to get him an old school jutebox🌻
Ooh! This is a good one thank you!
Bless✨
Edit spelling but who cares lol “jukebox” 😎
i think your perfect doobie bros tune would be "taking it to the streets"
They have MANY songs better than the radio songs like taking it to the streets, Black Water, Etc Explore their catalogue of INCREDIBLE music that you guys and gals are missing! GEEZ!
Me and my high school friends (all singers) used to walk through halls signing this.
Takin it to the Streets live on Soundstage is exceptional. Extended version of that song. Amazing guitar solo by Skunk Baxter.
TAKIN IT TO THE STREETS!!!- DOOBIE BROTHERS
They sound like they are having fun playing this.
Patrick Simmons wrote and sang on this song. He's also the lead guitar player. I'm betting he's of Irish descent.
Oh wow, a all time favorite of mine, thank you for this 🙏🧡
The Black one is Tiran Porter, he doesn't sing lead. But he provides the most memorable bass lines! The bass on "Long Train Runnin'" (sung by Tom Johnston) and "Takin' it to the Streets" (sung by Michael McDonald) will stick with you forever.
He did sing lead occasionally on songs he wrote. "Need a Lady" from Livin' on the Fault Line album is him singing lead. But he was known more for his bass playing, for sure.
Great record! It's called a fiddle when it"a played like that. And I think the word you were thinking of is quartet.
"Listen To The Music" is a must.
Peace Out 😊✌
BORING! LISTEN TO Doobie songs you've ignored that are MUCH better than those Tired old radio radio hits.
My fav song of theirs❤
I saw them with my parents in 1978 I think Eddie Money was the opening act. It was at the New Haven CT colosseum. What a great concert at 11 years old. There were tons of beach balls and frisbees ,but what they had the most of was weed. Joints were being passed around from person to person. Never smell it before and asked what the smell was..They just laughed. Maybe they had some too. That was the original members I believe at that time I believe. Great music. Brings back soo many memories
One of my all-time favorite songs! Can never get enough of this one!
I love all their songs.
Bro, that's Patrick Simmons...Whiter than white. He also wrote the song.
Patrick Simmons , lead guitarist was the lead singer in this song
Memories of everyone in the bar singing along
The DOOBIES give me the happys ! 💚
🤘❤🇨🇦
Quartet. "China Grove" is a good Rockin tune from The Doobies.
BORING! PLAY The Diamonds that weren't on the radio. THAT, is the REAL DOOBIE greats!
When violins sound like this I think of them as fiddles. 🎻 More bluegrassy and down homey. 🌄😊✌
Wanna honky-tonk, honky-tonk, honky-tonk....all night long....yeah. Remember singing this back & forth with my girls back in 1977 while cruising the back roads with our beers & smoking that weed. Those were good times 😁
Pat Simmons is a good singer. This was my favorite song of this period, I was in high school and thought I had some style... lol
Oh yes, the band members took turns on different songs, and that was an amazing technique.
Equality ...😉😊😘
I want you on a tv show! Rollin them big eyes🎉😅 you make me smile man.
Nice. Love the fiddle solo. They almost sound like they were rapping at one point. The harmony was nice.
Barbershop quartet.
Blackfoot- Train Train
