Acoustic heaven.
What a band.
In this magnificent era,we were utterly spoiled for top quality choice.
Damn,but I miss those laughing days.
The entire early Doobie Brothers revolves around 5 ingredients: folk, country, blues, soul and rock. I love this era, especially this album and the next one.
Their early stuff is the best. Neal's Fandango is a great song.
The rising line in the bass and guitar in the chorus give this song such an upbeat feel!
A band that proves you can't assume anything negative about the banjo. Thanks for the reaction.
Jesus Is Alright With Me, China Grove, Black Water, Taking It To Streets....just a amazing band.
This is the song that started me loving the Doobies.
This falls within a small group of FM radio staples that I actually like. Black Water and Long Train Runnin’ are in there, too.
If you search here on CZcams for a channel called "daniel duskin", he's got a video where he takes a copy of the entire multitrack recording of "Long Train Running" and improves the sound...from a studio engineer's point of view. He's also wearing a Go Pro camera to show what buttons and knobs are being adjusted to his liking. Daniel has another video where he does the same to "Photograph" by Def Leppard. Worth the time watching.
@@minty_JoeThat’s awesome! It’s like a Bob Ross painting. It seems perfect but then each little tweak makes it even better. Thanks for sharing! 👍😋
Mid-seventies, after an evening of bar-hopping, we'd always end up at a restaurant in the middle of main street for a pizza before we all went home... it was the generic kind of place with a mini jukebox terminal at each booth. You'd slip a quarter in, and get 3 songs, which would play at every table, eventually coming to your tunes. This song was a crowd favorite. Sure it all sounds like a barbaric way of doing things by today's standards, but hey, it was all we had! ...we just listened to the music. ;-]
I can totally relate!
John Hartman and Michael Hossack are both on drums. On all but their first album, the Doobies were a dual drummer band.
This album is very good, but their next album "The Captain and Me" is their best album.
I definitely prefer Tom Johnson to Michael MacDonald as their singer. Michael MacDonald is talented, but the band became more of a soft rock group when he joined them. China Grove and South City Midnight Woman are among their best.
Me too. 🙂
Their style changed drastically. I was so happy when Tom rejoined the band.
Tom's the man!
Tom Johnston
I do prefer both! Fantastic ✌️
A classic from AM radio. I don't think I appreciated The Doobie Bros enough back in the day.
Their most famous song with their best lead singer!I loved that combo of rock and country back in the early days when it was not common to do so!
Geez, a blast from the long ago past! I remember hearing this on the radio when I was in 6th grade! Great upbeat song......
The 70's were the best era for music and the Doobie Brothers contributed some great albums, The Captain and Me especially good.
Our host recalling hearing the chorus: This song is often played as background music at grocery stores/pharmacies/malls/dept. stores/restaurants/etc.-- probably where he heard it.
'I've heard the chorus before' - How many over-60s listeners chuckled at that one?
This must be one of the most played tracks from that era on daytime radio in 1972 and on 'classic rock' style stations since then. Despite that, it only got to number 29 on the UK charts which highlights the differences between the UK and US mainstream tastes at the time.
The device which gives the sound like the doppler effect on a passing airliner is called a flanger (pronounced flan-jer) and was used quite often in the late sixties and early seventies. A classic example is on the track Itchicoo Park by the Small Faces.
Love the phasing , great funky song.
Absolutely nothing wrong with a good time, good feeling tune.
This is traditionally one of their encore numbers when they play live.
Good, carefree song from Toulouse Street, which is probably my favourite Doobie Brothers album (whose title track is gorgeous).
A case can be made that the Doobies were the greatest American rock band.
An oldie but a goodie. The Johnston version of the band had a certain magic of their own. Or it might have been the air in the Early 70's..
China Grove and Black Water are their best... but this song has a soft spot in my heart, as well.
I think I was 10 years old when this was on the radio. This song and Joy To The World by Three Dog Night are the first songs in memory that shaped me into the music loving audiophile I became.
Jeremiah was a bullfrog don’t you know.
Will be seeing the doobies in concert for the 4th time this august, Another park another Sunday is a killer tune
2:12
Yeah, you’d be hard pressed to have lived and not heard this one.
Black Water is their real treat for me, China Grove is a fun banger, and you can’t go wrong with lots of their singles.
For a change of pace, can I please beg your indulgence to re-suggest the studio version of Stanley Clarke’s Lopsy Lu from his self titled debut?
Fun fact: John Lennon invented the term flanging (based on a joke by George Martin about how automatic double tracking works).
I actually used to think that they were all brothers with the last name of Doobie😆
Hey Mister JP!. Dave from Beyond the Sea. First Doobies song I heard was Long Train Running but this was their first UK hit. Classic vocals from Tom Johnston. If you like phasing, give Rainbow Chaser, by the original Nirvana, a spin.
Fantastic song.great reaction
I'm kind of shocked you haven't hit this one in all the years you've been doing this. More Doobies, please!
When this came out it was everywhere. I had just moved cross country and was very out of place. Doobies first couple albums take me back to that feeling. I remember a cover band that played most Doobie hits and other radio rock at regular dances. Good weird times.
If you like Ghost notes. Check out Steely Dan's song Gaucho. Jeff Porcaro puts a clinic on ghost notes on that tune.
Hi Justin! Great song. I like songs from all their lead singers.
Great review!
Everybody loves themselves some doobies. See the news yesterday? Anyway, this band, whomever they are, has latched onto something sure to shift the phase of the listener, which, at the time, was akin to suddening becomely unstuck in time, and not in the sense of Billy Pilgrim. They seemed to occupy a similar lane as Marshal Tucker Band, Allman Brothers, and Steely Dan, and you would often see the first two with the Doobs at music festivals, which were just becoming a thing. I was thinking they were at the Peachtree Festival in Rockingham in 72. But it must've been another. The bands that performed at the Peachtree Festival in Rockingham, North Carolina were: Alice Cooper, 3 Dog Night, The James Gang, Poco, Fleetwood Mac, Savoy Brown, Bloodrock and some others. I had to go over the fence to get in, but we made it. My bud jumped on the back of a truck that was going through the gate. I was too slow. Too high to remember much of anything but the heat, and "Water!" "Water!". You know how august August can be down south.
'Ole Audiophile to JustJP: More core of my being material! I believe I bought and wore out one conventional copy early off. That's where the new quadrophonic copy came in very handy. All four quadrophonic wonders have been reproduced as a bluray quadio. I'd be guessing but I'm up to a least 5 different copies during my lifetime over successive media changes. Even Mobile Fidelity got in the act, own that too, a SACD no less. This is where record producer Ted Templeman made his bones all over many Doobie Brother productions. This album really withstood the measure of time more than most. Don't kid yourself, the real musician inside this act is the BASS player Tiran Porter. Thanx
I have a quadrophonic mix LP, too, of Poco's Crazy Eyes album. It's got some great guitar by Richie Furay that wasn't in the stereo album. I posted it on my channel.
@@bobholtzmann I own about 60 SQ, QS, & CD-4 discrete leftovers from when I purchased the whole nine yards back in 1974. The Shibata diamond they still market. They don't market a quad phono cartridge though. One needs that extended headroom to decode the more complicated CD-4.
The Captain and Me - a brilliant album. No fillers, all killers. Pity that McDonald joined and softened their sound completely.
Not so great with McDonald Tom's the man!
I have been a Doobie fan since they came out. A major problem with this time in music is that groups like this were a dime a dozen. As I'm sure you are finding out.
They ended just about every concert with this famous track.
Check out Daughters of the Sea by the Doobies.
Absolutely love that song, doesn't seem to be loved by many though as rarely mentioned. For me that's the case with many artists, it's their 'deep cuts' l like the most.
I prefer *Music is the Doctor* (which you might also have heard).
And for something quite different, try *Black Water* . (which you might also have heard without knowing who it was, again.)
Sometimes, when you're awake at 5:30 of the A.M., a sweet little guitar riff is all you need to feel okay about losing some sleep...
Thanks, Justin, for starting the day off right.
Carry on...!
Classic song..............panned aaaaall the way to the left channel...
Despite being overplayed as a hit, it's still a good feeling song about relying on the basics, and the arrangement has a nice feeling, too. The Doobies' previous album, The Captain and Me, also has an opening track about the same basics in life, "Natural Thing", and it's a favorite of mine, too.
The Captain and Me followed Toulouse Street.
Captain and Me is my favourite DB album, Clear as the Driven Snow an all time favourite tune!
My dad had terrible taste in rock, his vinyl collection was this Doobie Bros record and Chicago, Honky Chateau and Red Rose Speedway. I was not impressed, although he also had In the Court of the Crimsetc., which I never liked anyway. His Gainsbourg records were great though.
The first five Doobie Brothers albums were great, (well maybe Stampede was weak!). But as the eighties approached they like many turned to popular crap! I'll stay in China Grove instead of Taking It To the Streets! Peace & Love.
Weak? With l Cheat the Hangman!
Firstly, this's a near perfect track, and an absolute mega classic (though this not my fave Doobs LP). Secondly, re the Doobs, why the leapfrogging, four tracks, four LP's... Why?!?! The Captain and Me, What Were Once Vices are now Habits, masterpieces both, dipped into then binned... I'm just curious.
Sometimes you gotta stay froggy 🐸
@@JustJP Right.. Now if only you could've been froggier with the crummy bands like genesis & talk talk 😱😀
🤣
Another example of a band whose music changed dramatically with the arrival of a new lead singer. I love the old Doobies, but don't care much for the Micheal McDonald era
Tom's the Man!
Love this one. Check out the PlayingForChange version of this, which includes several of the orig band members! (If you're not familiar with PlayingForChange check out the utube channel--it doesn't disappoint!). Ignore negative comments below. If you like this one you'll like many more. Pre-McDonald: Black Water, Long Train Runnin', Nobody, Jesus is Just Alright, and more. Some good hits during the McDonald years are Takin' it to the Streets, Dependin' on You, and many others. Their live stuff on youtube is great! There's a recent video on youtube of "Nobody" (maybe my fave DB tune), accompanied by a video montage of their old days: czcams.com/video/T3GBT1bGIV4/video.html I just love this!
Daughters of the Sea and Clear As the Driven Snow two absolute favourites!
MUSIC IS GETTING BETTER
Wait ... was this a first time listen? But .... how????? I must be getting old I guess :|
It ends up not being😊
Blech, this is the essence of vanilla.
Does absolutely nothing for me, and should be placed alongside 'Hotel California' in the list of ingratiating AOR tedium. Could quite possibly be the complete opposite of yesterday's life affirming blast of Fugazi!
Its ok but bland and predictable.
