简介:
by Peter Kurtz
One of the most inauspicious debuts by a major rock group, this subdued slice of country boogie might be called the missing link between
Moby Grape
and the later, revved-up Doobies of &Listen to the Music.& Only a handful of West Coast hippies bought this record originally, but it lays the blueprint for the Doobies’ future radio-friendly sound: chugging rhythm guitar, stretched-out harmonies,
Tom Johnston
‘s joyful R&B vocals, and
Patrick Simmons
‘ acoustic picking. A muffled mixing job helped keep this album in the morgue, which is sad, because &Nobody& and &Greenwood Creek& rate with some of
Johnston
‘s best tunes, and they deserve issuance on a definitive Doobie Brothers compilation.
