This song was a classic when it came out. It has the feel of a traditional, American song, that has always been around. Songs like 'Oh My Darling'', 'Buffalo Girl' and 'This Land is Our Land''
This has been a staple on classic rock radio for nigh 50 years. The hell it ain't rock!! 😏
This is sometimes referred to as Swamp Rock, like a lot of CCR's music. I remember the first time I heard this song and another of their songs China Grove. It was 1975 and my family and I were taking a vacation trip to Branson, Missouri, when I heard both of these songs. We lived in rural SE Arkansas and there weren't any rock stations in that area, only country stations, so these songs had been out 1 or 2 years when I heard them, but every time I hear them it reminds me of that time my family and I traveled to Branson. Wonderful memories.
A lot of reactors want to "classify" these 70's bands into a certain genre. But many groups, like the Doobies, Marshall Tucker Band, Hall and Oats, etc., are genres' of their own and really defy classification. The Doobs have a ton of other material to dive into and most of it is securely in the "rock" genre, but lots of it is just like this, something only they could have come up with. I've seen them live about 10 times in the last 8 years, as recently as 2 weeks ago. All of them are amazingly talented.
There weren;'t as many subgenres and rules about stuff back then.
You’ll be blown away by their song Another Park Another Sunday
And what about their "Cheat the Hangman"!!! So different than some of their main stream hits! Love it.
The Doobies were my first concert. 1978. I was 13.
Silas - Your mom and I used to listen to these guys while stationed at Fort Knox. It was so uplifting to drive the hills of Kentucky listening to these guys.
👍🔥
Yup! Our kids have no idea how COOL we are!😎
@@maryannturton9830 you got that right!!
The violin on this always reminded of Larry Fine on Three Stooges. McDonald’s early band played my 8th grade graduation. I just remember them playing Soul Man
What a treat!
If you played me " 8th avenue shuffle" and told me it was the same band that did " black water", i would have said no way
The Doobies Music is so varied, they are a great Rock Band but that is just aspect of their music!
Great reaction Silas! Down the rabbit hole you go with tons of great music from The Doobie Brothers!
Black Water 1 of my fave songs
Legendary tune and band. So many great tunes like Listen To The Music, Long Train Running, and China Grove!It is absolutely rock though with a twist of country and bluegrass thrown in. Other are more straight rock with flavor !
What a fool believes
This Album is in my top 5. I enjoy all the songs on it, especially the deeper cuts.
Love your reactions. I love to watch your generation react to the music I grew up on. I got to see the Doobie brothers in concert.
The Doobies are on my bucket list, have been for years now. I’m showing my age.😏☮️💟
After we moved from texas, I lived about 3 mi from the Missouri River and as such a little kid, it has a way of getting under your skin, I was over there a lot and it's just so Majestic and powerful and amazing and scary and frightening and comforting and Serene and it's just so damn big basically. That's why this early Doobie Brothers song Always resonated with me, so much and then they throw in that acapella Dixieland thing and it's just a weird but brilliant. We moved there when I was in kindergarten, and I remember that when first grade started we were in a classroom that had a drinking fountain in it, one of the old ceramic ones with the metal handles, it didn't have a refrigeration unit built in like the modern ones.
And it's hilarious looking back but they were talking to us in first grade calling us young adults and trying to instill a sense of responsibility but you know how kids are at that age.
They were like, you're a young adults now that means you don't have to ask permission to go down the hallway and get a drink of water from the drinking fountain out there you can just go back here in the classroom and whenever you want. But really it was just because of whatever reasons they situated the class there and it happened to have it, but I think it was just the teacher trying to work it into her spiel.
But because I was one of those kids that love being outside and I loved recess at school, I could never get enough. I was also always thirsty and I would go back there constantly.
She gave me a couple warnings saying things like, Mr Dahlberg! You're going to drink up all the water in the Mississippi River at this rate!
But I kept doing it until finally my drinking privileges were revoked and I told my parents about it and my mom cited with her and says I was out of line and my dad didn't say much but he took one of our one gallon milk jugs and put a leather collar around it and a rope made out of two or three lengths of twine Twisted together and then he grabbed a stack of Dixie cups from the garage and so I went to school the next day and it was Heavy to carry in first grade, and I set it all out on my desk and then I proceeded to pour myself a Dixie cup of water from the gallon milk jug and her jaw just dropped. She could not believe it.
I got sent to the principal's office and they took that away and confiscated it but man that is a really fond memory of me and for some reason it popped up thinking about this song that was on the radio all the time around then.
Missouri River is mentioned in " thinking of a place" by War On Drugs. A song as good as this one, but newer good music gets no radio play
THEY ARE ROCK LOL
Can't go wrong with the Doobie Brothers! Check out Long Train Running and Takin' It to the Streets....whole different vibe.
You should listen to “Another Park, Another Sunday” and “Eyes of Silver” from this same album.
The style is called “Cajun”.
My mom was a coal miner's daughter and she always called this hillbilly, rockabilly or blue grass music, being from the Appalachian area. However, going more south you would hear it called swamp rock or country.
Back in the day it was all rock music. Break up into genres limited creativity, this is where imagination lives.
I've always thought the part where the instruments drop out leaving only the voices was an accident they discovered while mixing and thought it sounded good.
The difficulty you're running into is categorizing a certain song by a band and it's already tough enough to categorize bands a lot of the time. But they were basically a rock band if you listen to a lot of their stuff but the difficulty comes in when for example let's say a band like April Wine does a ballad like sign of the Gypsy queen, I mean if you just heard that one song that would be soft rock I suppose or something but if you listen to all of this stuff you like oh no they are definitely a rock band. It was the same with the Doobie brothers. And lots of bands
Back in the day it was referred to as Country Rock .
There is early Doobies,which is awesome,now listen to the Doobies when Michael McDonald is on lead vocals,which is EQUALLY awesome.You MUST listen to What A Fool Believes!🎶🎙
That's so funny because you recognized that there were strings earlier but when it comes in more individually after the first verse, you're like, hey is that a violin? And I knee-jerk reaction was, come on Silas you know that in this context that's a fiddle. And within literally like 300 milliseconds you said oh wait a minute, fiddle, lol. ❤
Ha ha… same here! Lol !!
Southern rock
They are definitely a rock band. You cannot tell the genre from one song of a band from the 60s and 70s. It is only today where they play the same kind of music all the time. Great reaction though. Keep it up
Classic!
Hi Silas! Rick and Jennifer here. Please react to Doobie's 'Jesus is just alright'. This was a huge hit back in the day!!!
Check out their album, Toulouse St. There are at least 3 fantastic songs on there
Southern Rock is what always considered it to be.
Swampy!
Check out Electric Light Orchestra for more violin
And good luck on your finals by the way.
I played violin for some years. My favorite piece in junior high orchestra was Schubert's 5th symphony.
More Doobie Brothers, maybe Long Train Runnin' next. Yeah, giving a final exam tomorrow, I know what you mean. I always say that the end of semester is "point and grunt season", lol.
Check out China Grove, and Jesus Is Just Alright….those ones will rock your socks off.
Thanks, Silas! Easily my favorite by the Doobies.. I never cared much for their songs with Michael MacDonald.. I guess he's okay, but to me, it changed the "vibe".. these guys were awesome.. and this song is a perfect showcase for their talents...! appreciate your reaction... (I would classify this as blues/folk/country/R&B...in other words, a "fusion")
I think the word is Bodacios
I loved your reaction~If you want dose of real hard core southern fiddle, check out The Devil Went To Georgia" Charlie Daniels Band. It will blow your socks off!
hey buddy, good to see you again. I can't believe this is your first Doobie!!! Well congrats, son. You picked a fine one to start with, for sure. I would call this like a Delta Blues, maybe. I never really bothered to categorize songs or groups. If they rock, they're a rock band to me. ANYTHING from The Midnight Special is groovy and awesome. You'd get a kick at seeing the lineup. Its amazing they're not a psychedelic band 😂 try, Jesus Is Just Alright. Banger
❤
There are a few examples of them playing 'live'.....this one or any other number of songs. in concert.
Try China Grove ... It is a classic
Yep, definitely some bluegrass there. 😂
Southern rock.
Good stuff! 🔥
You may want to pick up your fiddle again. I would also recommend ELO as another band that use the violin quite a bit - start with "Roll Over Beethoven."
Toulouse Street is their best album
👍
I think the word you needed was BLUEGRASS. The Appalachian traditional music heavily influenced by the Scotch, and Irish settlers bringing old UK folk music across the pond with them.
oops you got it. Yes this is rock.
Funky Dixieland... lol
PLEASE Tren de largo recorrido. Long train running- OriginaL versión, please, please, please......jajajajaja
Try China Grove
Hi Silas. Seeing as Christmas is coming at us fast I think you should react to one of the most popular Christmas songs of all time = FAIRYTALE OF NEW YORK from THE POGUES. It will get you lots of views..guaranteed. 👍
They are a great hole to go down…next try Listen to the Music.
Scorpions! Ya gotta do the Zoo!
It's Southern Rock.
Without You is good.
Silas,from your facial expresdions and body language,is it safe to say this is going on your playlist?😁
Southern Rock???❓
Are you related to Damon Bailey? I think I've seen you wear IU gear in other videos.
Nope. We are not. But, we are fans!!!
@@mattbailey9396 Go Hoosiers!!
Bluegrass?
A lot of their other songs are more rock.
Pick up your violin, keep playing always & forever
School is more important than this, so please don't feel the need to apologize.
rock covers a vast variety of music. don't get so hung up on genre.
Not a good representation of the Doobie Bros. It may have been a big top 40 hit but try Jesus is Just Alright from their first album. That will give you a good start.
Silas. Please go back to your Kansas " Carry On My Wayward Son" and see my comment.....please. you and your dad missed the point of that song. It is a travesty not to understand the meaning. Please do it!!!
NOLA vibes.
