Well said Steve. I finally down loaded "People Gotta Love Again" and it's vintage
Doobies. Tommy hasn't sounded better. We better hear this on the airwaves!
I'm emailing the local radio stations here on Long Island to play it. Lets all get
together and do the same.
Thanks Steve

couldn't tell. If the entire world had a work ethic like that most if not

With a band and a fan base like this it's hard to imagine that some of the
so called artists that are the flavor of the week nowadays are in the
limelight. Over the last 20 or so years it's been hair bands and angst
ridden influences that get all the attention in the rock industry which is
sad. Do or did these bands take up such worthy causes as the vets or sick
children? This may sound prejudiced, however, the Doobie Brothers stand far
away and above the aforementioned. They are more than a hugely successful
corporation. They stand for a principle of high esteemed values with a
message of love and hope. Despite their internal changes and issues they
seem to have remained true to their music, themselves, and their fans. Their
fans. Without a doubt this fan base is also one of a kind. Different kinds
of people with different lives, different backgrounds, different cultures.
These differences do not hamper the fact that the fans know each other
thanks to the Doobies. This is no surprise. Sure, there a few who do not get
the point but even they see some of what The Doobies are all about.
The Rock n' Roll Hall Of Fame, MTV, VH-1, and the radio stations that play
today's hitz are, sadly, missing out on a wonderful thing. That's a shame
because great comfort can be achieved by simply putting on a Doobies record,
tape, or CD. And now a new studio recording showcasing the current lineup is
about to be released. This is a great opportunity for the world to embrace
the greatest band, once again. That's right. The World's Greatest Band. Any
arguments, questions, or controversy? Didn't think so.
It does not appear that The Doobie Brothers will be slowing down any time
soon. Now, we the fans also have an opportunity. Tell your friends, family,
coworkers, and neighbors to Listen To The Music, once again. Let's seize
this chance. So roll down your windows, open the convertibles, remove the
hard tops, open the front door and windows in our homes, call the radio
stations around the world, and let your town, country, and community Listen
To The Music, too. If the great, great Carlos Santana can do it.........
Doobies Rule
