The 70s are weird in this way where bands went through these massive shifts in style. I think this is because an established name was so valuable in touring. The Doobies moved to a blue-eyed soul sound when Michael McDonald joined up, Fleetwood Mac changed from British blues with Peter Green to melodrama city with Stevie Nicks & Lindsay Buckingham, the Byrds went from a psychedelic band focused on vocal harmony with Gene Clark & David Crosby to country rock with Clarence White, and Journey went from the early Santana sound to stadium rock when Steve Perry joined. It's definitely worth your time to sample widely out of the back catalog for bands in this era. Hell, Bowie had a completely different style every album or two.

“Black Water,” “Rockin’ Down The Highway,” “Jesus Is Just Alright,” then “Take Me In Your Arms” would be a good lineup. All of them are very different from one another, but I think you'll dig 'em all. The Doobies went through some personnel changes and their later stuff switched to more keyboard based style. Much like Chicago changed dramatically after Terry Kath died, the keyboard-based Doobies never really had the sauce the guitar-based Doobies had after Tom Johnston left in 1977 for health reasons.

I was referring to the initial comment about what genre are the Doobie's....yes, meaning their music can be classified under multiple genres. I own The Who's box set titled...... Thirty Years of Maximum R&B, so I know of that correlation. Stapleton plays country, blues, had a bluegrass band called The SteelDrivers, and a rock band called The Jompson Brothers.

"i cheat the hangman." Also interesting your comparison of the sound of this song to Van Halen. There is a connection because both bands were on the Warner Brothers label and, Ted Templeton produced "China Grove" and at least the first 4 Van Halen albums.

Tom Johnston (lead singer/guitar) was the driving force in this band from 1971-1975. Never gets credit for being one of rocks better singers. AT 70 years old, hes still singing this in the original key - E major.

Black Water is, in my opinion, their finest song. Or at least, it's the one that fills me with the most happiness. South City Midnight Lady is a great deep cut, and Rockin' Down the Highway is another classic road trip song. But on a separate, but tangentially related note, if you like funky ass 70s shit, check out Pick Up the Pieces by Average White Band.

The nice thing about the Doobs is that they could play so many styles. As much as I loved their funky later stuff and their mid-tempo tunes, their country-inspired stuff, it was great when they just totally rocked out like in China Grove. And yeah, Jesus Is Just Alright has to be listened to soon. Keep up the great work!

The great thing about revisiting all this stuff at your age is that you get to realise the origins of stuff that you love by later artists? Not to diminish those later artists, but they all owe a debt to what has gone before - nothing comes from nothing. I remember when I was a kid thinking that the Beatles, Stones, and later Zepplin magicked all their stuff out of nowhere - but then my uncle played me some Chuck Berry and Little Richard and Larry Williams tracks and I realised how much they had borrowed and then built on those foundations. Hopefully you're getting the same kind of in depth appreciation for the origins as well as for what artists of today developed from them. Music is a bit like sex in that, against all logic, every generation thinks they discovered or invented it! :-) Keep on keeping on guys!
