Doobie Brothers - The Doctor (music Video)

[1ok4u]

Great Band

[ste123456754]

they make it look sooooo easy perfect timing

[mrclefty1]

The Doobies do belong in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. From what I read one thing holding them up is all the band member changes they have had I really dont understand what that has to do with anything.

[rzombi666]

@mrclefty1 I agree, I love Lynyrd Skynyrd and they made it in despite all the member changes. Like really people have you seen the recent list of inductees: ABBA Genesis The Hollies Jimmy Cliff The Stooges. Genesis is the only one that belongs there.

[DaveWollenberg]

@mrclefty1 I know. right? Why should shiftin' personnel keep 'em from the Hall? God bless!

[jerzaw]

music is definitely the Dr When all is tough.....

[cherylsnyder6969]

Hi, Dave-it's just a "figure of speech", that's all......didn't think it was offensive to use the phrase, "Hell, yes"....I see another person has used the same phrase.

I hope you're not serious about asking me that question :)

[DaveWollenberg]

@cherylsnyder6969 Well, Cheryl, If you're really a bible-believin' Christian, try lookin' up Ephesians 4:29. The Message version says 'Watch the way you talk. Let nothin' foul or dirty come out of your mouth.' 'Say only what helps, each word a gift.' BTW, I use the word, 'blast' instead of swearin'. God bless, dear sister!

[ericdraven2k]

@DaveWollenberg dude... relax.

[DaveWollenberg]

@ericdraven2

Relax about what, Eric?

[cherylsnyder6969]

Hi, Dave! You may feel absolutely free to tell me "God Bless" anytime you want! I'm a Christian, and I need to hear that from fellow Christian pals! Peace, Cheryl

[DaveWollenberg]

@cherylsnyder6969 Well, Cheryl, if you're a Christian, too, why on earth would you use the word 'hell' in sayin' the Doobs belong in the rock hall of fame? Just askin', God bless!

[chriskh52]

Was this supposed to be a breakout song of the Doobies without Michael McDonald once again?.The main chords are alot like China Grove. The Doobies still had that great harmony. This song reminds me of Summer nights and outdoor concerts for some reason.

[kristiedoyel]

Oh Hell yeah! They should have been inducted a long time ago!!

[sendanor]

Damn...this song is a remedy for days going bad...keeps cranking me up!!!

[Nickvolatile]

i just found this song, im 30, and i believe musid IS the Dr. ;)

[whatitis117]

did they really play in dive bars b4 they started cracking crab?

[Sharonprays4you]

they should be in Hall of fame by now come on now there music went to the moon..

[f01863]

My favorite doobie brothers song,the song rocks from the first chord to the last!

[ManganeseMan]

Doobie Brothers RULE! this tour ruled! saw it in Orlando FL.

[PawneeBill47]

I've seen and worked HUNDREDS of shows, no one else compares live!

[Marckymarc71]

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a joke without the Doobies.

[DaveWollenberg]

Hit #9 in Billboard. Anybody else besides me think that the Doobies are overdue for induction into the Rock Hall of Fame? Be sure to let me know! God bless!

[SK70Ply340]

@DaveWollenberg I totallly agree

[cherylsnyder6969]

@DaveWollenberg Hell yes, the Doobies need to be inducted into ANYTHING dealing with Rock 'n Roll!!! Love em! Peace, Cheryl

ps-isn't Cycles a great album/cd???!!!

[DaveWollenberg]

@cherylsnyder6969 I dunno, Cheryl. I'm not really that much into albums, but if 'the doctor's' any indication, then, yeah, I guess it is. Tell me if my sayin' 'God bless!' offends you. Apparently, there are some haters here on youtube that don't like that. Bless you!

[Bhaktigirl22]

@DaveWollenberg

Amen, Brother! They should have been inducted long ago!

[dersr42]

@DaveWollenberg Doobie Brothers are MANY, MANY years overdue to induction into the Rock Hall of Fame! Still love them today!

[DaveWollenberg]

@dersr42 I know, right? Eligible since '96, but still not in, yet. Somethin's rotten in Denmark, right, gang? God bless!

[kperk014]

@dersr42 The Doobies and Heart. NO reason whatsoever for either one to be left out.

[hippojuice23]

Self -replicating band. Eating their own fat: cannibalism!

[PeckerwoodSmith]

you're a fuckin trekkie - go listen to flock of seagulls

[hippojuice23]

You're a toothless butt-rocker! Have another Coors!

[PeckerwoodSmith]

EMO PHILLIPS? - Rosie O'donnell's funnier than him - oh and junior - Coors is for kids - I drink Tequila - hey quick question ass-cracker - Remember your first blowjob?

[hippojuice23]

[hippojuice23]

@hippojuice23 Did I say that? God I'm amusing!

[jeffee50]

I can picture this song blaring at a summer picnic in 89 with a beer in my hand!!! It cant get any better than that

[reamraving]

definitly a drinking song for me neway

[BH21206]

Bought the original 45 many moons ago and still enjoy the song and think it's wild-for lack of a better descrip.

[sherrywine1941]

Fantastic !!!  (5*) Sherry Thanks for posting this and thanks to Paul for sharing it.

[malagutial]

the doobie brothers - gods

[tbhorse01]

this song has me instichs for i foun it amussing for a race horse called ALL MUSIC kicked me in the face broke my jaw and dislocated it(WHEN I GOT OUT OF THE HOSPITAL THIS WAS THE FIRST SONG ON THE RADIO AND IT WAS IF ALL MUSIC WAS THE DOCTOR

[nofizzed]

Not many bands can do that.

Unbelievable ensemble!

[edcarl]

Also known as "China Grove II" :-) Love both songs and love to crank them up!

[greggwbarnes]

I cant believe its been 20 years since this song was released. It was awesome then, and still makes me want to get up and dance. These guys have always been amazing!!

[sendanor]

@greggwbarnes Impossible to have those feet stay on the ground, ain't it!

[whatitis117]

I got sprung on this bitch in 88.

[dondax12]

One of the best groups ever............The BEST

d

[bigbadredsox]

Best thing they did since the pre Michael McDonald ( the singing bloodhound) days.

[ralphkjb]

This song proved that for a brief  shining moment there was life after Michael McDonald.

[wsturgell90]

I got the chance to see them back in 1989 at The Deercreek Music Center,just north of Indianapolis,Indiana;while I was on summer vacation.I will never forget it!!

[edbigtruck]

Is that Michael baird playing the drums

[PensiveSojourner]

Which drummer are you asking about. The one on the left is one of the founding members John Hartman. I think the other one is Michael Hossack.

[BH21206]

Love it. Bought the original 45 when it came out and I think it's wild !

[reamraving]

Man i miss charlie : [

used to be his drinking song

[wicket40]

I really dig this song. I love the Doobies and this song is just perfect. Simple in its rhythm and beat, yet straight ahead "good time rock and roll." Makes you roll down the window so everyone can hear...

[sendanor]

Well....What do you think I did two days ago when I listened to it in my car, heeheehee??!!

[bigbadredsox]

Best song the Doobies did in a long time.  Long before the singing bloodhound Michael McDonald came along anmd ruined a great band.

[PensiveSojourner]

The reason the band recruited McDonald in the mid '70's is because Tom Johnson was having health problems.

[phlizmo]

Back in 8th grade I caught song on the radio while getting ready for school.. I thought, "Man, this is the longest Dr. Pepper comercial I've ever heard in my life!" Then came the guitar solo.. I thought, "Man they are going all out to sell this stuff" lol.

[bumbleandprincess]

Yes totally agree this band was, and still is, just amazing. Yep this song was released in 1989 and what a lot of people dont know is the amazing talent who have joined this band over the years, They included : Moby Grape from Jefferson Airplane, Bill Payne - Little feet, Jeff Baxter - Steely dan,Willie Weeks - Ex Eric Clapton bassist, Stu Cook - Creedence Clearwater revival & David jenkins - Ex Pablo Cruz Guitarist. To date this band has sold over 26 Million Albums - Rock on Doobies!!!

[MB412]

This came out early 1980s, right? I want to say 1982 or 83?

[01revived01]

im a huge doobie fan, and believe it or not- this came out in 1989!! great song eh! :)

[MB412]

OK, now I remember it. Another reason I remember cuz, although I graduated from HS in 1986, I was dating a girl who was still in HS but graduated in 1989. We heard this song on the radio and thought it kicked butt. I called the classic rock station I listen to to play it during the lunch hour but the DJ didn't get a chance to play it.

[PensiveSojourner]

Actually I think it was 1989

[hitmansb]

Great tune...as catchy as they come.

[hawk2299]

I love this song and video...Mr. Johnston kicks butt...
