1976 Best Of Compilation Includes Songs From Both Doobie Brothers Eras - Before McDonald and With McDonald As Lead Singer!
The Doobie Brothers began their career as a good-time party band producing classics like "China Grove, and "Black Water". The second wave of Doobie classics came with the addition of Michael McDonald to the group who brought a funkier, jazzier, urban feel to the band with songs like "Takin' It To the Streets" and "It Keeps You Runnin'".
"Featuring 11 of the group's best-known songs from 1971-1976, Best of the Doobie Brothers contains the boogie rock band's very best songs, including the big hits "Listen to the Music," "Jesus Is Just Alright," "Long Train Runnin'," "China Grove," "Black Water," and "Takin' It to the Streets." For most casual fans, The Best of the Doobie Brothers is the perfect summation of the group's early career, before they turned into a slick, jazzy blue-eyed soul band in the late '70s." - allmusic.com, Stephen T.
