Known Faults:
- Has a low frequency hum audible between songs, not noticeable during music
- "Slat Key Soquel Rag" beginning cut
- "I Cheat The Hangman" beginning cut

The only other fault is it's not in your collection which you could easily fix by clicking the download link of you choice. Alright funny story...My Mom liked the 2 Michael McDonald sung singles "Minute By Minute" and "What A Fool Believes" so asked me who sang them. I got my Minute By Minute tape to show her the cover. She went out and bought the LP at the local K-mart. When she got home and opened it, she saw the big picture of a joint roach on the inner record sleeve, brought the record to me and took my cassette!

I posted this show a few years ago but it was in MP3 192kbps so this is a huge upgrade to that one. I love this show I've been listening to it for a couple weeks now so I had to post it. The band is on fire, this show is one hell of a jam session waiting for your ears! Enjoy!

JustDave's Notes:
Everything I see says this gig took place on December 30, 1978. I have found 2 newspaper or magazine adds and 1 bootleg cover that shows this date. Setlist.fm and The Concert Archive show the date as December 30, 1978. Also most sources on the net has The Doobie Brothers playing Sacramento Memorial Auditorium, Sacramento, California on December 29, 1978. I will let you decide but the evidence suggests December 30, 1978. Maybe our friend Draftervoi has some information on this one.

I have included the news paper clippings I was able to find on the net about the date of the show. Enjoy this great sounding Doobie Brothers concert!

Tom Johnston is most likely not on this recording having missed most of the 1975 tour due to health problems, culminating in a hospitalization for bleeding ulcers. Michael McDonald was hired to help out at, Jeff Baxter's suggestion. Simmons, Knudsen, Porter and McDonald divided up Tom's vocal parts and Simmons and Baxter shared lead guitar duties. In fact due to Michael McDonald singing "Long Train Running" I do believe this is a Tom free show.

Usually circulates with the wrong date of 10-31-1975 at The Showboat but the correct date is 10-08-1975 Mid-South Coliseum.

The former voice of The Doobie Brothers brings along a full symphony orchestra for this special show of McDonald's solo and Doobie Brothers material. You also get some awesome Motown covers in the set. Some tracks fade at the end some fade in at the beginning but no music is lost. Any Doobie Brothers fan should add this show to their collection.

I have a few Don Kirshner shows that I will be posting. This one is a little muddled but listenable. All the DVDs that I will be ripping for these shows are from old VHS tapes that have been made into DVDs. The tapes of course fade with age so some sound is lost, I won't post any of the bad ones.

This is a nice sounding recording from the re-united Doobie Brothers. The first 4 tracks are from an in studio appearance on the Johnnie Walker Show. The band drops acoustic versions of  "Long Train Runnin'" and "Black Water". Patrick Simmons takes on the vocal duties for the Michael McDonald written "Takin' It To The Streets", and does a nice job at it too.
