Saw them on the Captain and Me tour at Winterland in SF. ‘73 I believe. Holy Crap! Vices and Captain-2 of the best rock albums. Got something for er’body on ‘em!
Thanks for posting this! I grew up with these guys in Loma Prieta in the Santa Cruz mountains. This song was the anthem of my youth. I remember hanging out with these guys at the Chateau Regis (later became the Chateau Liberté) way back when they were just a local mountain-grown band. There may be better quality videos out there...but none more authentic. This is the *real* Doobie Brothers! Thanks for the memories!
I grew up with these guys every waking moment listening to all great songs they produced!! Thanks for getting me thru my teenage years at the drag strip !!
I always felt so fortunate to have seen Skunk play with Steely Dan in April '75 on the "Pretzel Logic" Tour and later that same year with The Doobies. The two best concerts I've ever attended.
Tom Johnston never got the recognition he deserved.... it took until 2020 for the Doobies to make it to the Hall of Fame? Tiran Porter, one of rocks all time great bassists!
Saw the Doobies many times from 74-80 while living in Pensacola. The early Doobies from this video were hands down as great as any touring band and put on the most powerful shows. Those were great days in the South.
This is great!! I am so thankful I grew up with the Best of the Best Classic Rock! Tom & Patrick still holding it together! I can't wait to See The Doobie Brothers in San Diego CA USA on September 22,2018 with the Eagles and Zac Brown Band!! Love The Classic's Forever!!! With All the Memories that go with All the Many Year's The Doobie Brothers and so many other Classic Rock Artist still going for 4-5 Decades! Amazing Talent so glad to have Them still with Us Today!!!
I hear ya. The Doobs, however, were one of the few bands that were able to pull it off, without the 2 getting in each other's way. The studio version of "Road Angel" really shows some great interplay between the two. Nothing against the live version here, I'm lovin' it! It's just tough picking up everything. Great band!
I met Tiran Porter about 8 years back in Los Gatos. You're right, super nice guy and we talked for quite a while. He was playing with some bands around the Bay area, but he seemed to really like being home. He said the never being home part just finally wore him out and he had to back off. Again, great guy and I really appreciated meeting him.
