If any record label executive watches this video and doesn't immediately reach out to this guy with a record deal, then they're an idiot. So much talent!
Sheesh. I was just lookin to see how other people played the chorus and this dudes voice got me ready to quit the wedding I’m playing Saturday lol good job dude
+Donna Murray He does justice to every cover he has on here, I just wish he had some new ones ... I've played his whole list top to bottom MANY times and still love it!
Wow! Awesome job man. I heard a few of your covers so far and after this one I subscribed immediately. I can't believe you don't have more subscribers! Coming from a fellow guitarist, I like your style on acoustic, which is why I started watching your videos, but this song proves you've got a good vocal range too. Nice man
brandon242 early on summer mornings I often stretch out in the kayak with a dobie listening to doobie and letting the lake rock me gently while the sun comes up all around me. Ergo I’m ready for your cover...you have the great baritone rumble like Chris Stapleton has. It’s a perfect fit. Your voice, it’s Clear and rich and full...like when you play a piano in a warm room full of afternoon sun, or like the soft burn of warmed spiced honeyed bourbon on a cold afternoon. 🤗🤗
Hello dean, hey my name is Cordell. Hey I had a question? So I’m a guitar player as well a really good guitar player I’m lead guitar in a band & I can usually figure out what lead guitar players are doing if I want to learn a song & play it like that as well I figured out the chords you where playing, I was wondering about the riff, what are you doing for the riff of the song what nots are you picking? & also I really like how you are muting the strings a lil bit tho out the song it’s sounds really nice, but anyways if you can get back to me on that riff & how to play it I would much appreciate it, hey man thank you for letting me ask my question, I’m looking forward to talk to you, thanks man!
I think you've got great vocals. And a lot of potential. I think your singing was great. However your performance needs Improvement in order to sell the song with your body language. The first thing I would do is remove that stool and then get a strap for your guitar because you and your body sing that song will be beautiful effective by your body language if you work on your performance and sell it by your sincerity. Which I know you can very easily do with a little practice. I very much enjoyed listening. Thank you

There is no such thing as record executives out discovering talent in this modern day. That is a thing of the distant past.
Need this guy to sing on my wedding. Incredible voice
Always heard this song on the radio but never knew the name. Love this version
*Brain of the guy in the background: "I am going to throw an awesome trumpet solo!"
*His prostate: "Hold my beer."
Perfect voice for this song. Well done.
This gentleman has a true gift. All of his posts are killer. Keep the music alive, soothes your soul!

Great fucking job dude👍 awesome voice just subscribed
The fact that this guy is not wildly famous is just proof of how much the music industry has fallen.
This is my favorite of all songs. I need you to do this with out all the back ground chatter. I promise I’d love it as close to Doobie as I could 💋
or a Doobie with Dobie.

Sound good bro
We could have heard more if people were a lot quieter during the performance. But it was a good performance.
im sure other people out there are running into the same problem but my volume does not seem to go up high enough for this tune!
oddly, it doesn't seem to matter who's playing it, but especially true here
That is awesome Dean. What key are you in?
Bro, you better transfer to Nashville if you haven’t already. You’re bound to make it big! Real talk.
90’s dad rock
guy with trumpet "I'm gonna go there tonight and blow them away..........well shit... I'm out"
Very well done. Too bad the crowd didn’t give you more respect. Do you have a great voice, and it was a very good version of this song.
Tabs for your cover?

People making all that noise in the background don't know what they missed
who the hell is the guy who just wants to play the trumpet?
I thought this was Steven universe
all the background noise of all the people talking if they would just shut up and listen
I didn't know the original version was by a black man
Really? It's a really popular song hah
decent cover, ruined by pig-ignorant audience, especially those blocking the view of others,,,,,,, so much for the good manners of elders
