  • A one-hit-wonder relic of the '90s "jam band" era, or a pretty good band with some really bad luck? Why did the Spin Doctors fade from relevance in such a quick and spectacular fashion?

    I was a devoted fan of the Spin Doctors. The skill of the original musicians was phenomenal, with solid jazz and Blues training and experience. It was reported that heroin was factor in their poor live performances, which were awful towards the end.

      I saw some great performances in the 90s, and another in the 2010s when they played a free outdoor concert in Pershing Square in L.A. If there were any drug issues, it definitely didn't show at any of these shows.
      No, their misfortunes started when they endured a major backlash, after Two Princes was a massive hit! ALL popular jam bands suffered a backlash later in the 90s. They couldn't get another hit, no matter what they tried.

    I was a teenager in the mid 90's so I definitely remember the Spin Doctors.... honestly I wasn't a big fan of theirs, but I did like a few songs from them....there was a radio station in Philly bk in the mid 90's that held a concert with various bands playing and Spin Doctors was one of them.... actually, they were great live!! After they played they sat at a table and signed photos/ t-shirts etc and I remember the lead singer being so very laid back/cool/and so down to earth!! 😊

    Totally disagree with this...'Cleopatra's Cat' was a great very original sounding song. But, for me their jam band performances material is their best stuff. 'Homebelly Groove' album is a great example.
