Dem Vinyl Boyz EP 110 - Doobie Brothers - Best of The Doobies

In this classic rock episode of Dem Vinyl Boyz, we take a trip back to 1976 with Best of the Doobies, the definitive greatest hits compilation from The Doobie Brothers. This album is a showcase of the band’s unique ability to blend rock, soul, and a touch of folk, creating a sound that has left an indelible mark on music history.

Best of the Doobies features some of the band’s most iconic tracks, including "Listen to the Music," "China Grove," "Long Train Runnin'," and "Black Water." These songs not only became staples of 70s rock radio but also defined the laid-back, yet energetic sound of the era. The album is a testament to The Doobie Brothers' versatility, bringing together their best work in a collection that continues to resonate with listeners today.

Throughout this episode, we’ll dive into the band’s history, the stories behind these hits, and how Best of the Doobies became a must-have record for rock fans. Join us as we explore the tracks that made The Doobie Brothers legends and reflect on the enduring appeal of this classic collection.

For decades, people who enjoyed music on vinyl records instead of CDs or MP3s were considered dinosaurs. While we like moving at 33 RPM, the rest of the world rushed and went to digital. Not only did vinyl refuse to die but demand is at its highest since at least 1991. It's a good thing Dem Vinyl Boyz saved all their records from back in the day. Because, now we have the biggest collection of 12-inch records on the radio.  Dem Vinyl Boyz love the joy of sliding a classic album out of its cover; the crackle of a needle just dropped into a groove; the careful way to pick up and flip a record when a side ends. On the podcast each week we feature a different piece of music history on vinyl record. Dem Vinyl Boyz experience the album front and back, giving you commentary and music facts along the way. Put your ear buds in and let us take you on a musically journey listening to the greatest music of all time and the history of how it became legendary. Dem Vinyl Boyz! Respect The Technique
