The Very Best Of

Rhino's first-ever two-disc Doobies collection gathers 33 hits and classics spanning 1971-2000. Includes "Listen To The Music," "Jesus Is Just Alright," "China Grove," "Minute By Minute," "What A Fool Believes," and many more.

The Doobie Brothers got their start in the late '60s, playing their upbeat, melodic, guitar-driven, multipart - harmony rock in the biker bars and hippie joints of Northern and Central California.

Signed to Warner Bros. in 1971, the Doobies released the first in an unbroken string of ten platinum and/or gold albums through 1981. The band went through several personnel changes, the most notable being cofounder Tom Johnston's exit in 1976 and pop/R&B singer/songwriter Michael McDonald joining to lead them through a more sophisticated and even more successful musical phase.

The Doobies split up in 1982 but reunited in '88 with many original members, cut another Gold-certified album, and continued to rock down the highway.
