    The Doobie Brothers - thee greatest American rock band ever. And I'd like to give some props to John McFee - never really gets much credit, but he's a musician's musician, so skilled on so many instruments.

    I was born in 1969 and grew up listening to the Doobie Brothers with Michael McDonald. It was great Music back then and it's just as good today and still relevant.

    I saw Michael in the early 2,000's at an outdoor theater on a beautiful summer evening in Ct. His voice was the same and his now white hair enhanced the blue of his beautiful eyes. It was an unforgettable evening ! ❤❤❤❤❤

    These guys were a staples back in the late 70's early 80's @ alpine valley in Wisconsin. They would 2-3 nights, we went every night sure it cost some brain cells, but well worth it. Just saw them here in Chicago last year , still sounding great, congrats on going for 50 years guys

    What an incredible instrumental jam, before the original song kicks in at 4:45. First saw them play this one in April 1977 at Bowling Green State University in Ohio, but first saw Michael McDonald with Steely Dan at Toledo University in April 1974. His voice was a revelation that night. Been a fan ever since.

      @@Bluman2 No internet back then, so I had no idea that Steely Dan's 1974 touring band included Michael McDonald, as well as a 2nd drummer, Jeff Porcaro. Crazy thing was that my wife and I had seen Porcaro in March of 1972 (when he was still just 17 years old), drumming for Sonny & Cher at a concert in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
