For me, and many others, their greatest cut was "Whipping Post" on the "Live at the Filmore East" album. This is the cut that really drove home their dual drummers innovation. Blue Sky.... been my favorite song since the first time I heard it. My buddy and I would air guitar Duane and Dicky. I would do Dicky's vocals. Pure magic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glass, first concert I ever went to at Winterland, San Francisco was 1972...The Doobie Brothers. All original members Tom Johnston, Patrick Simmons, Tiran Porter, and the 2 drummers, Keith Knudsen and Michael Hossack. Dam they were good, just lit the place up and as a 17 year old, I knew they would be big and they were. Patrick Simmons and I have one thing in common, we BOTH went to Leigh High School in San Jose. He graduated in 1967, I was 1973. I am going to my 50th re-union this Sat, should be good. The house where it all started for them was down on 12th St, downtown, now a historical landmark in San Jose....good stuff. https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/doobie-brothers-former-home-in-san-jose-proposed-for-landmark-status/2478801/ 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the Chicago Auditorium. They were brilliant. It's tough to rate bands as there is so much great stuff out there and fantastic bands. But they have probably been in my top 5 for as long as I can remember. Put the headphones on for this one. Such a well put together cranking tune ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
