    1981, Doobie Brothers Perform "Listen To The Music."
    Michael McDonald's Heavy Backing Vocals Sound Remarkably Stellar On This Song. His Voice Strongly Supports Drummer, Keith Knudsen, Who Takes Lead Performance On This One. And Chet McCracken's Drumming Adds So Much Dimension To The Music Arrangements. Nice Use Of The Cymbals Here. Also Check Out Michael McDonald's Skills On The Piano. He's The Hotshot On His Keyboard.

    Aviators, receding hairline mullet, blue polo tucked into a crisp pair of leather pants on a 125lb tan bearded guy. Only in the 80s, man.

    I'm really good friends with this woman named Kate, she was married to Keith. She's introduced me to all the band members! What an amazing moment that was! I'm now really close to John Mcfee, he's my mentor on the guitar! They've been such an amazing band. Always have been, and always will be! Doobies forever!

      Yep! He's got quite a voice too. He would wear a microphone headset at shows so that he could contribute to their vocal harmonies while drumming.

    Cool! A great voice here. If Tom couldn't be there, yes, Keith was ready to step up, no problem. A great show on a sunny California day. I saw them on this tour and it was a blast. Great songs, all great talents...man they just rocked the place. Thanks for great memories guys.

    You know that you have a talented band when the members can all improvise solos and all contribute to the vocals of a member who was absent (Tom Johnston). Keith Knudsen has more talent at the end of his little finger than all musicians today combined.

      They were good, but they didn't have Mr. Doobie Tom Johnston. Without Tom, it is a safe bet to say most people would have never heard of the Doobies.

    Not only was Keith Knudsen a great drummer, but a great singer too.
    It's worth noting that Keith did co-lead vocals in the Doobie Brothers song "Double Dealin' Four Flusher" for their 1975 album Stampede.

    This song is timeless...Keith sounds great. But my heart is with the younger Tom Johnston voice for this song. So awesome. It has a bit more edge to it. I believe the song was written by Tom Johnston as well. I like this version but it feels a bit too fast. Just my opinion.

    • @davidnissim9203
      @davidnissim9203 5 років тому

      Gotta agree with you on that. Tom Johnston did this song better, but I think that Keith was doing a good job keeping it alive when Tom wasn't in the band.
