The Doobie Brothers - Listen To The Music (Live)

For more info -
www.eagle-rock.....
Recorded at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley, California in 1982, this concert was the last date on "Farewell Tour". It was an emotional night and would be the last gig for 5 years. The set contained all their best loved hits and they were joined by founder member Tom Johnston for the last two tracks, with former members John Hartman (also from the original line-up), Tiran Porter and Michael Hossack coming on stage for the celebratory finale of "Listen To The Music". The band are in fantastic form and rise to the occasion magnificently, they can rarely have delivered a better performance throughout their distinguished career. An album called "Farewell Tour" was released by Warners in 1983 but this featured tracks recorded at several different concerts across the tour. This is the first time the audio of their actual final concert has been available.
On CD format, four additional tracks from the concert have also been reinstated as bonus tracks. On the DVD format, the Bonus Features offer five tracks from the concert that were cut from the original 1982 film: "Little Darling (I Need You)", "One Step Closer", "Dependin' On You", "Real Love" and "No Stoppin' Us Now" plus interviews with the band members and manager.

Tom Johnston, the BEST most feel good era of the Doobies

[@greggd2027]

The whole band is still as great as ever - but I have to say, in particular Tom Johnston's voice is still as crisp as it was in the 70's. Incredible.

[@stevelibrandi]

I have recordings from the seventies. He’s had several throat surgeries. His voice has aged ok. But not the same as the seventies not even close 😂

[@runbmc35]

Tom Johnston had such a soulful voice

[@daryljones3195]

Love that gold top PRS! These guys are still rockin' it!!!❤

[@susanroycroft89]

I saw them live in NZ, and they were quite simply brilliant, it was soo good 😊😊😊

[@runbmc35]

Tom Johnston is the heart and soul of the doobies

Damn straight!

[@barrybechtel8553]

[@DesertDigger1]

This song even sounded good in 1972 on a Panasonic transistor 9 volt radio on a string.

[@cathnu2]

Tom Johnston is really amazing. His voice really has never changed like other old groups still out there.

[@bradcrawford1998]

This is WITHOUT a doubt, 100%, the OFFICIAL Doobie Brothers Anthem song. BEAUTIFUL timeless classic that I NEVER get tired of. Thank you Mr. Tom Johnston for writing this masterpiece of a tune 😉

[@gabrieltrade3664]

The chorus has 4 words. And it's on the top 3 greatest of all time.

[@markklein437]

We are all Doobies under the skin.

[@MakingFunOfBusiness7in]

Pat Simmons eyes water with such emotion as the audience takes over. That is a humble and grateful man.

[@mollylepup2506]

The Doobies embodied the 70s music....................

[@suzanneprock7286]

I'm so glad to see Tom Johnston back on vocals, sadly he had to drop out of the tour over back problems, what a loss for this great band. One of my first loves.

[@kritterkult1318]

These guys have the most catchy rhythm guitar introductions of any band of all time, this song, China Grove and Long Train Running.

[@garrythompson4132]

There's a reason why they have lasted so long...the music speaks for itself.

[@theanomaloushousewife886]

Gawd, they all look like they're having such a good time. Love it.

[@conniegee8664]

It's such an infectiously happy song, it's hard not to smile while singing and dancing to this song.

[@josephb4770]

Of course they’re having a ball, getting that crowd Going, and with one of the 70s’ best Feel Good rock songs. The instrumental arrangement is fantastic. Their arrangements always have been.

[@seenonyoutube7856]

Tom's voice sounds as good or better than it did back when this song was first released. Amazing.

Music is the only thing that can make people forget about their differences and appreciate each other

[@Beitmeh1]

Music tames the savage beast. There is a style of music for everyone.

[@joaoc.o.b5889]

The great point from this song is bring us back to the good times in the 70`s

[@Beitmeh1]

The 70's was the golden age of rock. Overlooking disco.

[@alskjdfsldkjf]

These guys are just fantastic... talk about soul!

[@Frostie-e8g]

This should be the anthem of life !

[@Bearlover722]

I have been mad at Tom ever since he left the Doobies. He made me love them and then he broke my heart. Today I have made peace with him.

[@mikeamos6720]

You were mad at a guy that developed medical issues and couldn't continue?

[@philfish6619]

these sounds go right into my soul.

[@rodolphobradaci7902]

The same for me man...

[@USCG.Brennan]

Absolutely!!!

[@SavedEight]

I’ll be 21 here in January, and I️ love music like this. Wished we had more music like this today. Also wish I️ could travel back in time to enjoy this music, in it’s prime. Although, this will never be out of it’s prime!

[@Missy_catz]

I saw them in 1973 ... I was 20 ... I will be 65 in one week ...

[@pattysalyer382]

Another great song by The Doobie Brothers !!!

[@transitfan954]

This is the song that made me a Doobie Brothers fan. Fall of 1972, I was living (temporarily) in Urbana, IL and heard it on WLS out of Chicago. Bought the single (on the old Warner Brothers olive green label). There were others I bought (Long Train Runnin', China Grove, etc), but that one was the first, so is still special to me 52 (!) years later. Saw them in concert at the University of Illinois Assembly Hall in December 1973. Great show.

[@dougulmer9065]

All of their music recorded at Wolftrap is as good as it gets.

You have to love these guys and love listening to their music. Finally they are getting in the HoF and that is long over due.

[@danielyates6275]

The fact the Doobies was not in the HOF 20+ years ago proves that its a corrupt, political POS. I'd love it if they told them to go pound sand up their ass.

The song that started it out for these guys!!! NEVER EVER GOT TIRED OF HEARING IT!!! It doesn't get any better than this one and I've seen these guys in concert 3 times over the years. Wish I could have been there for this one too...... Just FANTASTIC!!!!! How it must have felt for the band members to watch and hear the audience sing along with them with BIG SMILES ON THEIR FACES!!! I can feel the vibes, excitement and electricity right through my computer screen!! ;-)

[@philopalski1141]

My Favorite band, since 1973

[@v.e.7236]

These guys never fail to impress. Always a tight rhythm section and they always give you a little guitar lickin' in there for good measure. I've been lucky to have seen these guys 5 or 6 times and every concert was great. Edit: Must be 105 people who are still upset they changed the name from the original Pud from there roots.
