Maybe use a different title and describe it differently next time. The way this was going as well as the way you wanted it can both be fun when you make the rules clear in the beginning. Like “rate less known deep dives” or something. I could say at this point I hate everyone’s hit due to having heard them so many times but it doesn’t mean I didn’t ever like them. And of course becoming a hit doesn’t mean it was ever a good song. 🙂 ? Sorry not following. I didn't say ignore hits. I said you don't HAVE to list hits only. I think the title/OP were clear enough. People can list big hits, minor hits. or totally obscure songs. Whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His voice and music were a major mismatch with The Doobie Brothers. He has contributed vocals on many other artist's material but the band he joined was the worst foundation for his assets. They of course welcomed the difference but I am always reminded of that instead of hearing his DB material as his and not the band's. Sometimes he sang China Grove in their live shows and it was just horrible. He is one of the greatest backing vocalists in the business but it was so far off for the Doobie's sound. Their music had been heavily enhanced by a distinct choral harmony supplied by Tom Johnston and Patrick Simmons, two guys so compatible and complimentary one could sing the other's leads and get away with it. I think the Pat and Tom would disagree with you a long with millions of other people. 2 Quote "Danny, ci manchi a tutti. La E-Street Band non e' la stessa senza di te.

o0Ampy0o Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Love: George Harrison as a Beatle and solo artist, especially All Things Must Pass. I remember the day I acquired it and I remember its lovely scent of vinyl. I also loved George's vocals with The Traveling Wilburys. Love: Paul McCartney's Beatle material, his McCartney solo album and a few individual solo releases decreasing as time passed post-Beatles Love: John Lennon as a Beatle, all of Plastic Ono Band and Imagine (the song not the album). For the most part John seemed to be anti-Paul in terms of production and sound engineering post-Beatles. To me Paul had the ideal bass sound while John had the bass diminished and a crappy tone on his solo material. Love: Ringo's drumming and Beatles vocals and It Don't Come Easy. Woohoo! George's riff on Leslied guitar.....and as the composer! And Ringo's All-Star Band and how he tours the revolving lineup in first class!
