The Doobie Brothers are one of the few American music groups that have been able to achieve a phenomenal level of success and sustain it for over four decades. The band was formed in 1969 by lead singer-guitarist-songwriter, Tom Johnston and drummer, John Hartman who teamed up with bass player, Dave Shogren and singer-guitarist-songwriter, Patrick Simmons. In 1971, they released their self-titled album and although the album failed to chart, the lead song “Nobody” became their first single. The band’s second album, Toulouse Street was one of their most successful albums and featured such hits as “Listen To The Music” and “Jesus Is Just Alright.” Michael McDonald then joined the band in 1975 when three years later, he partnered with musician Kenny Loggins and co-wrote the song “What A Fool Believes” for their eighth studio album, Minute By Minute. The song became the group’s second #1 single and was so popular that it earned the writing duo a Grammy Award for Record of The Year while the album spent five weeks at the top of the music charts. In total, the band has sold over 22 million records from the 1970’s to present day. Over the years, The Doobie Brothers’ music has evolved from a country/blues base into a sound emphasizing everything from R&B and jazz elements to guitar fueled rockers like “China Grove” and “Long Train Running” and the folky chart topper, “Black Water.” They have continually defied categorization while maintaining their signature sound ... The Doobie Brothers is one band who will continue to rock well into the future.
