The Doobie Brothers in concert live on Don Kirshner's ROCK CONCERT television program Видеоклипы
Pure musicians. Still listening after all these years.
One of the best bands in 1974, their current album aired in FM radio in Finland and taped it. Great times!
Don Kirshner's library should be kept in the vault with the seeds to sustain life!
Have fond memories of watching Don Kirshner's Rock Concert every week end.
Let's not forget the groove set down by bassist, Tiran Porter. He knew exactly how to fill in the spaces between and behind the riffs.
dang rights!!!!!
Tiran!
no virtue signaling brownie points.
a trick: watch movies on Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching a lot of movies during the lockdown.
@Ahmad Sebastian Yea, I have been using Flixzone for since november myself :)
I saw the doobies brother in San Antonio 1974 in the convention center with my older brother he pass away in 2020 I miss him so this music brings good memories to me thanks for the beautiful music ❤🙏
I saw them live in the 70’s. You got your money’s worth. They were worn out at the end of the show. They gave a 1000%. Never forget that concert.
Damn I miss those days.
I believe white stuff got them going !!
Me too, AMEN...
I seen them in 2017 and they still had all the high energy in them great concert.
Early Doobies gold. Pure musicianship from every single one of these guys. You can tell they really enjoy making music and have a true love for their craft. That's it people, get on your feet and move!
HELL YES!!!
In March of 1974, I saw the Doobie Brothers here in Sacramento, a few months before What Were Vices Are Now Habits. I rank that concert as the best concert that I had seen. The Doobies rock the house.
Tom Johnston was/is the hardest working man in rock. The man can sing at the top of his lungs all night and bang on a nice guitar the entire time. This was rock as good as it can get.
Simmon's guitar playing was casually underrated by the public but not by the industry. He was just as good of a guitar player as he was a vocalist.
Tiran Porter was known and copied by every bass player.
They just don't make it like this any longer. No one seems to put in the effort or even want to. This was a band as tight and as creative as they can get.
If you ever want to see for yourself what a great and powerful voice Tom Johnston has, just try to sing along with him. NOT in your key,(an octave down), but at HIS pitch.
You won't get through China Grove...
And they are still rocking into their seventies although Tom had to take a break from touring for health reasons, but I'm sure he'll be back as soon as he's able
The fact that these guys not only wrote but recorded the captain and me, and what were once vices are now habits in their early 20s is mind boggling. The were so incredibly proficient that they sounded like seasoned 50 year old Nashville session guys. In a lifelong doobies fan.. there's something about their music that had a feel that makes things ok even 50 years later.
Awesome. Real music, real musicians, not a digital device in sight!
Music in the ’70s ,80s and 90s was really something… so different, so special with “that” kind of sound which you don’t find anymore. That was the era of real music without the internet, of long tours and enjoyable live shows spanning from metal to new wave, progressive, jazz, fusion, pop. So many bands were born and disappeared during those 3 decades. I am then celebrating the ’70s and the ’80s and their unmistakeable sound.
Tiran Porter is one of the most underrated bassists in Rock. His playing is so fluid. I saw AC/DC in.1986 and the bassist Cliff Williams was playing the same note through the show so I really appreciate the great bassists even the Wrecking Crew bassist on "Valleri" by The Monkees.
OMG! Amazing!
You know they're badass, when the singer wears snakeskin boots!
70’s Doobie Brothers with Tommy Johnson is the best. Amazing band.
Yes. After he wore himself out, The Doobie Brothers just weren't the same band. And don't get me strated on Michael McDonald.....
Johnston
I'm in the middle of the Doobie Brothers memoir that just came out. Tom and Pat wrote most of it, with parts by Tiran and Ted Templeman and other guys related to the band. It is such a good book. The idea for using smoke and explosions at the end of their shows came from their drummer, John Hartman. John was a huge Keith Moon fan and he told the band the Doobies should have explosions and smoke like the Who had. The rest of the band thought that was a good idea. They were amazed how much the crowds loved it and how it added to their shows. Also, they started dressing flashier after they toured with Marc Bolan and T. Rex. Tom said, "We were never going to be David Bowie or Marc Bolan, but for us, a little bit of style went a long way."
If you're a Doobie fan and you like to read, you will love this book.
The name of the book is Long Train Running: Our Story of the Doobie Brothers. They said this show was a huge break for them because the Rolling Stones were the top act, so millions of people were watching. But then the Stones only had one song, Angie, which they were lip-synching to. Then the Doobies came on with this great set and it got them a lot of attention.
@@sarahm.5356 Knew of the Doobies & Stones, but not this twist! Great to read, thx
Dobbie Brothers started up very close to where I lived in CA. They played several colleges that I attended along with Tower of Power. They were very popular in the 70's in the SF Bay Area. Thanks for the book review. They are GREAT!
Ted Templeman released his memoires too (A Platinum Producer's Life in Music). He was the band's producer from the very beginning. Ted acknowledges the Doobie Brothers as a 'one of a kind', extremely talented and highly versatile Americana outfit.
Just finished Ted Templeman's autobiography. he talked a lot about his time making records with them. Very cool.
These are the Doobie Brothers I remember, know, and love...
I loved Don Kirshner's Rock concert in the 70's. Black Sabbath etc. What a show !
That is classic Doobie brothers.
The Doobies give you that "I just want sit back, relax, pass around a bottle and share a doobie with my friends". Lots of smiles and good times.
I saw them in 1978 at the Air Force Academy Fieldhouse. About halfway into the incredible concert they stopped and said when they first came out onstage and saw all the cadets sitting calmly in their dress blues they thought the crowd wouldn’t add much to their show. Then they said they were wrong and they would definitely be back. Brought the house down and launched into a second half as great as the first. I was on the floor as a civilian right near the stage and it was the best concert I’ve ever been to.
Pat Simmons is a bad mamma jamma. His tone on that Gibson ES-335 is amazing.
Loved Simmons. He carried the band well especially after Johnson left.
Missed this one when it first aired. Too busy with too many things. Glad I finally got to see it, like 50 years later! Thank you Red Planet Rock!
This is the concert I “thought” I was going to see in 1975….but instead I saw some guy I didn’t know sitting at a piano….and no Tommy. I thought WTF? Well at least we have this to thoroughly enjoy!
This performance typifies what the Doobie Brothers represent-pure, unadulterated, mind blowing rock and roll, with a purpose. Their songs speak to the endless possibilities in life to go where no man has gone. The sweet chords, sultry bass, powerful percussions, deft finger picking and melding of three great voices, brings we listeners to new levels of consciousness. Pat and Tommy are the Adam and Eve of music. They never step on each other and each of them together create a mix of pure genius. Tiran, the glue that melds the two guitars together, adds that touch of soul to the batter. I cannot see how I could get through life without these guys providing the soundtrack to my existence. Thank you for the 50 years of resonance, friendship and inspiration. May you continue unabated to help bring the world together with your artistic wonders.
I agree wholeheartedly, just IMHO, I would say Tom played The Adam and Patrick Eve. Only because Tom sang most of lead vocals. It couldn't have worked wo Patrick and the others tho.
TwoTickets100, your tribute to the Doobie Brothers was a beautiful thing to behold. So eloquently said and so genuine in spirit. Thanks for providing your excellent assessment of this incredible musical group.
They're more than rock and roll -- they're funk, R&B and blues, and other stuff on other songs.
Amazing! Incredible to hear “Clear As The Driven Snow” live! To me, “The Captain and Me” is one of the great rock albums of all time - amazing composition and musicianship. From a bygone era where talent and musicianship were taken seriously…
me too

I couldn't agree more "The Captain & What Were once Vices" were both extremely important albums to me.
Clear As The Driven Snow is such a great song and one of my very favorites!
Such an awesome cut - all the different sections
Man, oh man am I really glad I got a taste of this great music growing up! Simply....., music today really sucks!!!!
All that glorious hair😊
The Doobie Brothers are a great band. I remember listening to them on AM radio. WING Dayton, Ohio. Late 60's-early 70's. Thanks guys.
Your welcome brotherTxVet1027,I agree with you 100 per cent,hell yes!!!!!
Love it , esp Pat’s long flowing hair 🎸💕 will never forget waiting all week for this show to come on…..
Loved them then..love them now!!! 👍☮️☮️☮️☮️❤️❤️❤️🕉 And all us guitarists jammed and played their songs!
Tom Johnston and John Fogerty are two of my favourite US rock singers of all.
Whether they call it Rock & Roll whatever else …. It ‘s still a bit of R & B to me 🙏🏽✊🏾🙏🏽🤗
Obviouly, there's a difference between Blues, R&B and Soul. I think of the Doobie Brothers as Rock & Roll with Soul; even before the Michael McDonald days. They always also had a gritty Soul sound.
Tom Johnston has always been an old-school blues/R&B kind of guy.......
Lots of energy. Lots.
Doobies legends love them since 1970 class act that's why they are still going in 2023 there music is classic
Huge guitar Tom is playing! Awesome band. I especially loved the album The Captain and Me!!!!
Sweet sounds!
I remember this show very well and it's almost the best early show they ever played,,, Tommy was absolutely amazing and my most favorite drummer ever, John Hartman was completely off the hook, totally awesome and Patrick Simmons was an awesome adversiry and Tiran was just amazing,,, ya know what I wish we never grew up and was just stuck in this era
Amazing- empty seats.
"Without You" was always my kind of heavy metal.
Astonishing. Tasteful musicianship in all departments. It is gratifying to read other appreciations below. As good as it gets. Music for musicians.
As a bassist, I have to say that Tiran is a bad mofugger. I love his fluidity and melodic groove.
Do you find yourself attracted to him?
@@MakingFunOfBusiness7in Attracted to his musical ability as a bassist, since I am also a bassist
One of my favorite DKRC episodes
OMG they truly were at their finest at this time. Just fantastic!
I just love this band right from the start. They know how to groove ; Hard !!!!
Man the lead tone from that Les Paul with P-90s is killer!
P-90s are great happy mediums between single-coils and humbuckers. The mini-humbuckers on the old Les Paul Deluxes were/are pretty sweet, too.......
Can not believe they are not in the. ROCK N ROLL HALL OF FAME!
Wow,that is a real shame
They are! Inducted THIS YEAR. Finally!!!
@@druefreeman439 Wahooooooooooooooo
Hall of fame isn't the true measure of talent..its mostly$$$and music politics.
One of the greatest I ever saw back in 74-75 Landsdown Park outdoor concert,
Ottawa, Ontario 🇨🇦.
Deadly heat in the summertime air, but didn't know it with these great guys playing!! Loved it! Their sense of presence and fun on stage, just a great time!
Just like in this video.
Thank You Historic Films for hoarding the Entire Don Kirshner library !!
I know ... there are probably all kinds of licensing issues , SOMEONE will have to buy the rights , FROM Historic Films .. but , who's gonna be left to care , as these episodes just SIT !!!
Have a nice one 😀
...none of us are getting any younger!
Beautiful.
Saw them at the Purdue Hall of Music in Spring of 1977. Killer.
They always had so much energy.
15 minute Without You jam - amazing.
saw this group in tulsa. the best version for sure. forgot the best part. just walked around back after the show and found pat simmons backstage with two 13 year old girls on either side of him, one of them brushing his hair. i got his autograph and left them to their own devices. i was also 13 or 14 at the time.
Yep! That's the way it was, such greatness live! Such energy and enthusiasm! So great to be there!
as long as they still got the 2 front men, they rock!
RIP John Hartman
Tom Johnston was a very underrated guitarist, yet was really good with a great sound.
Was/am a huge Doobs fan but why would you say Tommy J was an underrated guitarist?. He and the band were deservedly admitted into the R & R Hall of Fame in 2020.
Yo, they ROCKED!!! Doobies Are Awesome...
....the Tom Johnston days have got it ALLLLLLL over any moment Michael McDonald ever had....;)!!
I pretty much lost interest after Tom got sick. I have no idea why Patrick didn't step up instead of letting Ol McDonald ruin the sound!! Oh well. I personally loved The Captain and Me that I played over and over and over!!!!
Michael had a great voice and it was an interesting sound but it wasn't the Doobie Brothers. I'm so happy to discover that I'm not the only person that feels this way. I have to be honest and say I thought a lot of the hits they had under Michael were kind of mediocre, then again the 80s ruined everything, almost
@@AldousHuxleysCat I'm glad you agree with what The Doobie Brothers evolved into with McDonald as lead singer. I do agree he's got a great voice, but at least to me, it sounds like "soul," instead of pure rock like Tom's voice.
I really believe that Patrick could have easily taken over as lead singer until Tom returned. Most of the McDonald era music wasn't music that people would dance to.
Stay cool now. I'm going to put The Captain and Me cd in....again!!! Lol
@@AldousHuxleysCat f'in EXACTLY
@@juana1483 " I have no idea why Patrick didn't step up instead of letting Ol McDonald ruin the sound!!" Pretty simple. Pat heard Mike's songs and loved them. That's why they're on the album. And if you listen to Pat's songs from the late 70's, it's clear he was also moving in a jazzier direction.
Well.......that's how you do that! Awesome!
Good stuff from The
Doobie Brothers.
What a great band! What a great sound! I loved the shot of the artist drawing a picture of the band performing! What an awesome video!
Thank's a lot LJ,I appreciate it and very happy you enjoyed it,keep on rocking!!!!!
@@neilembo55 They also appear on new year's rockin' eve 1975. There is NO complete show at all. Someone or Somebody Deleted it the complete show. Please, re-uploaded. Thank You.👍
Loved Tiran Porter in this group! Met and jammed with him back in the day. One heck of a bassist and a real gentle soul!
Wish they would have played Natural Thing. Great tune which lead off the Captain and Me Album!!
Great 🎶🎤🎸🇲🇾
Natural Thing monster track
What a great share...this was the Doobie Brothers I grew up listening to...loved this!!!
1972, Capitol Theater, Passaic, New Jersey, and the Doobies opened for T.Rex and we were blown away by the Doobies! NOW, all of these years later, BOTH groups will be inducted into the 2020 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame!
Yes,they both need to be in the Rock and Roll fame fer' sure
The other way around: Rex opened for the Doobs: www.ebay.com/itm/DOOBIE-BROTHERS-1972-CAPITOL-THEATRE-REPLICA-CONCERT-POSTER-W-PROTECTIVE-SLEEVE/283613555887 . What's strange though is Skunk on the poster. In 1972 he wasn't a Doobie Brother.
Rick M No, I was actually there. The top act was at the top of the listing, opening groups below. www.moyssi.com/capitolshows.htm
Imagine if they brought back shows like this today. We'd end up each week with two guys or girls with laptops.
Captain and Me was the first album i ever bought, was 11. Clear as the driven snow blew my mind. Turn it up loud at 13:44. Used to blast it and drive my parents crazy. Shoulda bought me headphones for Christmas.
Great to hear this live.
Thanks
Yes,one heck of a talented,rocking band the Doobie's were,always very melodic,rocking,the real thing,straight from their soul ROCK and ROLL :)))
Great album and great song, Clear As The Driven Snow always really grabbed me too, really touched my soul!!
Same here, age wise. The funny thing is, I am not even from the US but an obscure nation in Northern Europe. Took the Captain & Me with me to school b/c everyone in class got 5 minutes to say a few words about their fav music. The faces when I played Clear as the Driven Snow .....
Me too. The Captain and Me is one of my all time favorite albums of all time. I was maybe 12,13 years old. Each song is engrained into my soul.
"Deep as a river, wide as the sea
Changin' the ways of a captain and me
I could be happy, lord, so then should he
If all of the universe unveiled itself to me!
my first album, or was it Master of Reality? 11yrs old 71'
Tommy at his finest….
I saw them in the 80s and they brought the house down!
What a fantastic concert.
This is super good! A great vid of the early line-up. Thanks much for posting!
Thank you for posting this awesome video of my favorite band the Doobie Brothers since day one! I loved watching Don Kirshner's Rock Concerts on Saturday nights many many years ago. I'll be seeing these brothers back stage here in Denver with Santana July 3rd 2019. The Doobie Brothers are not only America's band but they will be the house band in heaven! -Larry G. Golden, Colorado
You are very welcome,I am so happy you enjoyed it and thanks for the nice comment,I appreciate it,I love the Doobie Brothers also :))
WOWWWWWWWW,you will be seeing the Doobies and Santana backstage,you are so lucky.I envy you,that is so cool Larry,the house band in heaven,so cool and they are America's band,,I would be a bit younger but I did catch a few Don Kirshner's Rock Concerts when I was a very young teen,I remember seeing Foghat,Wishbone Ash and Eric Burdon on it,I would have watched more but it was always on at my bed time,ha,ha :)))
@@neilembo55 this is super kickass bro
@@justaman-km1hl Thanks my friend :D
You think Kansas can open for the Doobies in heaven???
great concert to mellow out to 👍
A truly great, American rock band that ruled the airwaves. I prefer them without Michael McDonald. They became too tame.
Without You brought the house down - as it should have!
Simply put, this is what it’s all about… 👊🏻
Tiran Porter is an excellent
bass player!
One of my favorites.

I wonder if the jam at the beginning has a name
San Fran - Favorites at Biker parties in the Santa Cruz mountains amid the Red Wood trees late '60's / 70.
I love how Tom Johnston is just making shit up when he forgets the words....rock and roll baby!
20:32 Michael Mcdonald in the audience drawing Tom and Pat! Lol
As a musican because of the brothers.
My favorite part of the great set is 10:19.
Play threw always play threw.
Knowing why they were called the "Doobie Brothers" always made me wonder how much pot they smoked before they went on stage? Great musicians, great music, love the Doobie Brothers👍🏼✌🏼️
Ha,ha,ha,I am sure they smoked a few doobies before playing at least once but hey,you never know,they are such a tight,talented and professional band........then again maybe they just got used to playing high LoL
Another musician who hung out with them socially, Keith "Dyno" Rosen, suggested it, and most of them thought it was kind of a dumb name. They used it for their first few gigs, thinking that they'd come up with a better one. They never did.
I’m sure it’s coke !
Awesome 👌
Amazing...
That band also had two
drummers.
Awesome video.
You all still rock my world!!!
Great video of course, and that was a great shot of the artist painting their portrait, and he was excellent!, such a rarety!
This was a great show in the 70s tvs harder to come by you know one tv house
My first concert ever... on the Taking it to the Streets tour. General admission.
who @ 6:07 thought guitar techs were going to come out and switch guitars for them, but then remembered they were watching a 70's clip. lol
So good to remember that they were once a FACE MELTING BAND.
6 guys. 3 drummers. Tiran Porter. 3 amazing voices. 2 killer guitar players. Tommy on fire!
Saw ZZ Top open for Doobie Brothers and ELP close at Swing Auditorium, 1973. Wow!
Mesmerizing. Captain and me landmark Doobies album.
Amazing!
John Hartman's jacket for the win...
I remember when I was kid my mom took me to Grant's Dept store to buy an 8-track and she wouldn't let me get the Doobie Bros because it said "Doobie"... So I got KISS Rock n Roll Over✨
Never mind! 😂
The group has been together since 1970.
Not true. They broke up and regrouped many times.
