Doobie Brothers - Sibling Rivalry

In 2000 Doobie Brothers released the album entitled, "Sibling Rivalry", offered the band's first new studio album in nine years. The materialin Doobie Brothers album, which reflected significant contributions from both Knudsen and McFee, ranged from rock to hip-hop, jazz to adult contemporary, and even country. The album sold poorly, reflecting the declining sales throughout the adult-oriented rock musical scene. The band and some of its supporters felt it did not find the large audience it deserved. Others found the album to be musically and lyrically weak and unfocused, lacking in solid songwriting or inspired playing, this in part perhaps due to the fact that the band tried to accommodate every member with a songwriting credit, & in some cases, lead singing.

Doobie Brothers - cycles

The Doobie Brothers hibernated for almost five years with various members getting together in different configurations. Early in 1987 Knudsen persuaded eleven of the Doobie alumni to join him for a concert to benefit veterans' causes. Answering the call were Tom Johnston, Pat Simmons, Jeff Baxter, John McFee, John Hartman, Michael Hossack, Chet McCracken, Michael McDonald, Cornelius Bumpus, Bobby LaKind and Tiran Porter. The successful reunion sparked discussions about reconstituting the band on a permanent basis. They eventually decided to replicate the Toulouse Street/Captain and Me incarnation, settling on a line-up featuring Johnston, Simmons, Hartman, Porter and Hossack plus more recent addition LaKind.

After being united Doobies released their next album "Cycles" on Capitol Records in 1989. The song in the album is very similar to "China Grove" and the connection is further enhanced by guest Bill Payne's tinkling piano. There was more strong material on the album, including Johnston's "South Of The Border", Simmons' "Take Me To The Highway", a great version of the Isley Brothers' "Need A Little Taste Of Love", and perhaps the best version ever done of the Four Tops classic, which had been covered by Santana years before. Cycles proved a successful, strong and very solid comeback album and was certified Gold.

Doobies - One Step Closer

Doobie Brothers another album "One Step Closer" was released in 1980. The LP featured the hit title track and the Top Ten smash "Real Love" but did not dominate the charts and the radio as other albums largely due to an over saturation of the "McDonald sound" by many other artists heard on the radio at that time. The album itself was also noticeably weaker musically than the previous three Because the band itself sounding tired and seemingly devolving to little more than McDonald's "backup band".

Doobie Brothers - Minute by Minute

Doobie Brothers became more popular with the release of their next album "Minute by Minute" in 1978. It spent five weeks at the top of the music charts and dominated several radio formats for the better part of two years. McDonald's song "What a Fool Believes," written with Kenny Loggins, was the band's second #1 single and earned the songwriting duo a Grammy Award for Record of the Year. McDonald-penned title song received the Grammy for Pop Vocal Performance by a Group and the album was honored with an Album of the Year nod.

The triumph of Minute by Minute was bittersweet, however, because it coincided with the near-dissolution of the band. The pressure of touring while recording and releasing an album each year had worn the members down. Jeff Baxter and Michael McDonald had been in the midst of a creative conflict for some time. McDonald desired a direct, soulful and polished rock R&B sound while Baxter insisted on embellishing guitar parts in an increasingly avant garde style. Because of their contradiction the album could not achieve higtest popularity as compared to others.

Doobie Brothers - Stampede

Doobie Brothers Fifth album "Stampede" was released in 1975. It featured yet another hit single, Johnston's cover of the Holland-Dozier-Holland-written Motown hit "Take Me in Your Arms". The song included a distinctive Baxter guitar solo. Simmons contributed the atmospheric "I Cheat the Hangman," as well as "Neal's Fandango," an ode to Santa Cruz, Jack Kerouac and Neal Cassady. Ry Cooder added his slinky slide guitar to Johnston's cowboy song, "Rainy Day Crossroad Blues".

At the time of releasing the album Johnston's health was suffering from the rigors of the road. By the start of the Spring 1975 promotional tour for Stampede, Johnston's condition was so precarious that he required emergency hospitalization for a bleeding ulcer. With Johnston convalescing and the tour already underway, Baxter proposed recruiting a fellow Steely Dan alum to fill the hole: singer, songwriter and keyboardist Michael McDonald. Simmons, Knudsen, Porter and McDonald divvied up and sang Johnston's parts on tour while Simmons and Baxter shared lead guitar chores and the Doobies became one of the most popular rock bands in the country.
