The Doobie Brothers - SLACK KEY SOQUEL RAG

[@dkbsoulman]

I had the privilege of seeing these guys live at Riverfront Colosseum in Cincinnati, Ohio back in 1980 and it was to date...the best live show ever. At one point, Patrick Simmons had a wireless plug-in for his guitar and he jumped off the stage and ran around among the crowd on the floor playing and seemed to be having a great time. The crowd loved it. These guys were (are) a class act. Love their music. Rock on guys.

I could listen to this song a thousand times, back to back, and would still have to listen to it, just one more.

[@donpaladino]

Amen to that.

[@rogerleblanc7907]

The talent here is overwhelming.

[@tomteegarden4129]

Acoustic guitar sounds so good when you have people like the Doobie Brothers playing it it makes it sound even better smoothness is greatness it's candy to your eardrums to your mind and body let it all hang out and listen ;

[@tomteegarden4129]

Music more intensely

[@jjackflash4729]

Their version with the late Cornelius Bumpus on flute is awesome too!

[@bobb2987]

This song and Toulouse St are my favorite Doobie Bros, but man, they put out so much good stuff. And despite their name, I have yet to find any song with a hint of scandal, offense, or reasons not to play them in church. Great stuff!

[@stangant3110]

I think they're name keeps them from being taken seriously. It's a shame. Pat Simmons has said he never liked it, but it stuck. I guess it's better than what they started with - "Pud".

[@patrickeh696]

As a kid I listened to them working on this up the road from me. When in Soquel

We are a local band inn Richmond Virginia and we have lots of un doing it

[@thephenomenonwatcher]

I love " MrMojorisin" so I visited his grave in Paris. Thank you for the comment.

[@Innuendoes]

Love this so much! Thank you for uploading it and thank you Patrick and John, wherever you are :)

[@Bill_Woo]

I love how it seems that many times when they hit that really hard part for Patrick (1:18 here) how McFee smiles and looks right at him struggling!! Watch for this the 1982 farewell show - hilarious (a few bars later Patrick would wince hard because he missed one note of the hard part. McFee short of giggled). ALL IN GOOD FUN I have no doubt at all.

[@Bill_Woo]

FYI the wincing part of the farewell performance was, on this performance, the two bars at 1:40 here :)

[@angelinasuazo5705]

At 0:37, play it boys!

[@angelinasuazo5705]

This was a pleasure to watch. Thanks for the gift of yall's music. This kind of reminds me of a duet between Glen Campbell and another musician.

Mountain Aire in the late 70's @ Angels Camp, CA. ♥ ♪

[@chrisbrimhall6323]

Why these guys get constantly get ignored by the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame is beyond me. I have seen these guys numerous time and ALWAYS put on a fantastic show, old school musicians

[@davidshaw7454]

This is so cool !!!!!

[@Bill_Woo]

This is so FUCKING beautiful

[@rickkilimun5430]

I looked at the sheet music for this and damned if I can figure it out.

[@Bill_Woo]

Try a G tuning?

[@JeanfrancoisMontiel]

To Add John MC Fee in the group was a good idea, he have the talent to play with Doobies

[@paulajordan8113]

omg just got this from a charity shop, dident know the b was this :-)

[@PA96704]

Thank you Doobie brothers for showing the World Hawaiian Slack key. 🙏

[@bradleyrieger1517]

It's SLAT key, not SLACK key.

[@markwitz]

@@bradleyrieger1517 Don't believe everything you read. Whoever wrote, wrote it wrong. It IS slack key.

[@bradleyrieger1517]

@@markwitz Check the album cover for the actual name. Don't believe everything you think you know. Slack key is a style. Slat key is the title

[@markwitz]

@@bradleyrieger1517 .....@PA96704 was correct when he pointed out that the music is performed in the style of Hawaiian slack key. The name may have been written as Stat Key, but there is no such genre as "Stat Key".

[@margaretjefton8842]

TY PATRICK DARLING AN.MCFEE...

[@plainoldme7322]

There's another video out there where the dude accompanied with flute and it did not help.

[@michaelwright5759]

Perfecto …

[@chuckfarley567]

Ovations singin !!!!...

[@bachrocktheamericahatersan5799]

You need to edit the title. It's "Slack" not slat. The original release had it misspelled.

[@thephenomenonwatcher]

+BachRock Thank you for your point.

[@Bill_Woo]

Both are correct, in that the album misspelling is in one sense official.

[@gordthompson9508]

This is the way music should be!

[@margaretjefton8842]

my. cody. we. are so. in. luv. with. this. a. quiet. plz. muscic.

[@plainoldme7322]

The only way this could be made better is if a teeny bit of bass or cello faintly in back

[@domjuandeperon]

[@TheCream14]

Who are these people who gave this a thumbs down? Must be Trump and his family 'cause he can't get this kind of social exposure anymore.

[@bvnseven]

It's SLAT KEY...

I looked at the sheet music for this... My brain was like "WTF?!??"
