Andy!
I can relate to what your saying. And Agree. But this does not surprise me,
because, know way would Keith and John would make a commitment to the band
without any input in a album.
Pat was Hot on "Brotherhood" and Tommy's "Rollin On" is as good as "Listen
to the music" but the band has different people in it since then. In 1997
when they stopped doing "Slow Burn" for "Itty Bitty" I was disappointed but,
Hey! You can't please everyone 100%
So I guess 90% isn't bad.
I see the Doobie once a year sometimes twice and is one of the best original
rock bands Live!
