It's hard to think of a bad track on Takin' It To The Streets. Great classic album.

In the imoortal words of MIchael Douglas' character Jack, in "Romancing the Stone"

" $hit...the Doobie Brothers broke-up!"

My sentiments exactly. Anyway, here's one of my favorites of theirs; A song that alot of people forget about when theny think of the Doobs. (I think part of the reason I dig this song so much is cuz I lived it! LOL.)

Gentlearts, just the way you worded that story cracked me up..........you made my day lol.
Drummerboy, wow I owe you one. When I was a kid, I had one of those "themed" 8 tracks, with lots of different songs by different artists. Many of the songs were lesser-known, including South City Midnight Lady. I was just a little kid but even I knew that was an amazing song.......played it 1000 times! But then I forgot about it, until you reminded me of a true classic. If you've never heard it, it's a sweet, mid-tempo, groovy song. I'm gonna go get it right now lol....(BigBadJohn, you put a classic one up too............they broke some thematic ground with that one).
Thanks for all the responses everyone!

Default Doobie Brothers

OK. Since Michael McDonald was discussed in the Christopher Cross thread just now, I open the forum to this.

Do you like Doobie Brothers better with Tom Johnston at vocals or Michael McDonald ? "Stampede" was the last album with Johnston at Vocals. McDonald debut was "Taking to it to the Streets."

McDonald certainly has more talent and range than Johnston. However, I like their harder rocking style which was more catered towards Johnston's vocals before McDonald joined.

Tom Johnston over Mike M. The true sound of the Doobies is with Tom in my opinion,

Default I bought Livin On The Fault Line

which had 2 songs covered by The Pointer Sisters. The album was pretty good but nothing beats Toulouse Street and The Captain
