The Captain and Me

The Doobie Brothers

A high-octane blend of California sunshine and biker-bar grit. Driven by dual drummers and iconic vocal harmonies, it is the definitive 1973 road record.

Moments Worth Listening For
The relentless chugging acoustic guitar riff that drives the opening of Long Train Runnin' into a full-band explosion.
The sudden, heavy guitar crunch of China Grove that perfectly captures the energy of a mid-70s rock anthem.
The shift from delicate fingerpicking to a soaring, multi-layered vocal climax on Clear as the Driven Snow.
