The Doobie Brothers - Neal's Fandango

[jt1674]

[mitjalovse]

How to continue after achieving your biggest success? For instance, The Doobie Brothers reconfigured themselves so often they were a different band by the time they released One Step Closer, the follow up to their blockbuster Minute By Minute. We need to say – Michael McDonald transformed the group into an entity that could function within the 80's, but the band seemed tired by then. Still, the tune on the link presented a possibility of a continuation, i.e. a version of a collective, where Cornelius Bumpus serves as a frontman. I think that development would've fit the way Michael McDonald showed, while one can also observe a potential in an even more soulful direction. Sadly, the collective disbanded afterwards, delegating the composition as a glimpse into what-could-have-been.

♫ China Grove ♫

I just played this one last June, but back by special request … According to Doobie Brothers singer/guitarist Tom Johnston … “The words were written last, and they were made up around this whole idea of this wacky little town with a sheriff that had a Samurai Sword and all that sort of thing. The funny thing was that I found out in 1975 in a cab in Houston that there really was a China Grove,…

REMEMBERING

KEITH KNUDSEN ON HIS BIRTHDAY

2/18/48 - 2/8/2005. R.I.P.

DRUMMER WITH THE DOOBIE BROTHERS

Song of the day:

What a Fool Believes - The Doobie Brothers

(On their Album "Minute by Minute")

A song written by Michael McDonald and Kenny Loggins. The best-known version was recorded by The Doobie Brothers (with McDonald singing lead vocals) for their 1978 album Minute by Minute.

This song is about two lovers from long ago meeting again. One of them, the man, is still hoping there is some flame in the relationship, but the other, the woman, is only meeting up to be nice. In the meeting, he thinks there is still something there, but she just indulges him with a meeting and leaves, forever.

Apparently as a joke, Michael Jackson claimed in a videotaped phone conversation with Elizabeth Taylor in 2003 that he contributed at least one backing track to the original Doobie Brothers recording, but was not credited for having done so. Entertainment Tonight broadcast this claim with viewers being unaware that Jackson was joking. The band later denied his participation.

The Wheeling Police Department today announced the results of a recent two-month-long special operation that resulted in multiple arrests and roughly 200 grams of various illegal drugs seized. The special operation took place from mid-August to mid-October after data indicated a rise in crime, fueled by multiple citizen complaints regarding criminal activity in and around the East Wheeling neighborhood, specifically 15th Street. Through saturation patrols and a high-visibility approach, officers focused primarily on reducing quality-of-life-related crimes, with thefts, drug usage and distribution, and nuisance-related calls being the top complaints. 35 people were arrested as a result of the operation and face various criminal charges. Nine other people were issued citations for minor offenses. Since the successful conclusion of the operation, data has indicated a 75% reduction in recorded drug overdoses within the East Wheeling area/WPD Downtown District. Criminal activity and citizen complaints also have significantly decreased. Officers spent roughly 232 hours on the operation and confiscated 91.5 grams of cocaine, 78.6 grams of methamphetamine, 28.95 grams of crack cocaine, and 0.9 grams of fentanyl. Additionally, police served 15 search warrants, seized $1,214 in cash, and recovered two firearms. I am always proud to see the system we’ve built at the WPD utilized and demonstrate results,” Wheeling Police Chief Shawn Schwertfeger said. “The geographic policing and problem-oriented policing models are very effective. From gathering data to CompStat meetings to listening to concerns from our citizens to command-level leadership demonstrating skills and abilities, dedication, and work ethic. This two-month effort encompasses all of that and has proven, yet again, to be effective. I hope that citizens and businesses in the downtown district and East Wheeling area are as proud of their police department as I am.” The following is a list of those arrested and their charges or citations: Roland Nathanial Copney, 35 of Wheeling-Federal Indictment for Possession with Intent to Deliver and Firearm Possession by a Prohibited Person Benjamin Edwards, 52, of Wheeling-Federal Indictment for Firearm Possession by a Prohibited Person Brian Anthony Waldvogel, 35, of Wheeling-Possession of a Firearm by a Prohibited Person Brittany Chantel Green, 34, of Wheeling-Maintaining a Drug Premise James Russell Cox, 39, of Wheeling-Breaking and Entering Lewis Edward Nida Jr., 54, of Wheeling- City Capias x2 Robert Edward Mike, 52, of Valley Grove, WV-Possession of a Controlled Substance Charles Smith Rippy Jr., 69, of Pittsburgh, PA-Citation for Parking Violation Keith Dwayne Smith, 47, of Wheeling-Citation for Open Container Ruby Lynn Holley, 44, of Wheeling-City Capias Rudolph Richard Galberth Sr., 66, of Wheeling-City Capias Teresa Lynn Bakaitis, 64, of Wheeling-City Capias Timothy Joseph Frazier, 61, of Bridgeport, OH-Citation for Driving Suspended 1st, Expired Registration Jessica Mae Ensminger, 42, of Colliers, WV-Citation for Possession of a Controlled Substance Benjamin Eugene Dyer, 39, of WheelingCity Capias, Possession of Controlled Substance & Citation for Possession of a Controlled Substance Ronald Jerell Jennings, 42, of Wheeling-Obstructing Percy Shannon Sinclair , 41, of Wheeling-Possession of a Controlled Substance, Maintaining a Drug Premise Encil Torrey Knudsen, 34, of Wheeling-Probation Revocation James Alan Hunter, 52, of Wheeling-City capias x2, Fugitive from Justice David Russell Kerns Sr., 52, of Wheeling-Possession with Intent to Deliver Tiffany Nicole Fazio, 35, of Wheeling-Possession of Controlled Substance x2 Joshua Patrick Steed, 36, of Wheeling-Breaking & Entering, Possession of Controlled Substance James Allen Contrill, 58, of Wheeling-Citation for Open Container Brandy Sue Matthews, 43, of Wheeling-Citation for Trespassing Korrie Lynn Webb, 38, of Wheeling-Domestic Battery Bishop Collette Paige, 46, of Wheeling-Prostitution Anthony Lee Arms, 43, of Wheeling-Delivery of Controlled Substance, Conspiracy Chelsea Aleece Radcliffe, 35, of Wheeling-Delivery of Controlled Substance, Conspiracy Ashley Nichole Martin, 38, of Wheeling-Fugitive from Justice Charles Edward Mayfield Jr., 39, of Wheeling-Citation for Possession of Controlled Substance Eric Daniel Wagner, 45, of Wheeling-Citation for Trespassing Shelly Marie Gaschler, 51, of Wheeling-Delivery of Controlled Substance Kyle Scott Marsh, 39, of Wheeling-Capias James Dempsey Short Jr., 44, of Wheeling-Two Counts of Burglary Shenelle April Carmalt, 41, of Wheeling-Maintaining a Drug Premise Michael Thomas Cujas, 43, of Benwood, WV-Citation for Driving while Suspended (3rd Offense) Ryan Matthew Wright, 31, of Wheeling-Destruction of Property, & Obstructing Katrina Kathleen Cameron, 49, of Wheeling-Possession with Intent to Deliver Michael Lee Williams, 42, of Wheeling-Possession with Intent to Deliver, Delivery of Controlled Substance, Conspiracy Tiffany Nicole Taylor, 34, of Wheeling-Possession with Intent to Deliver, Conspiracy Jenna Nichole Keener, 27, of Wheeling-Maintaining a Drug Premise James Edward Williams, 41, of Wheeling-Conspiracy Read the full article

Musical Birthday Notes - February 18th

Musical Birthday Notes – February 18th

[mitjalovse]

What is a difference between a comeback LP and a turnaround one? One can notice the latter occur quite quickly, the musicians release them after an underwhelming disc for a course correction. For instance, The Doobie Brothers' Takin' It To The Streets happened soon after The Stampede, whose tour caused Tom Johnston to be sidelined thanks to the health. The group called Michael McDonald to ease the work for Mr. Johnston and the LP received some great notices. Of course, we all know the way these stories usually end up, i.e. either the replacement wins or the original does that. The Doobie Brothers eventually changed their sound thanks to Mr. McDonald, becoming another case of a successful frontman transplantation.

When I played Black Water by the Doobie Brothers a couple of nights ago, our friend Clive mentioned another song by that group, one that I wasn’t as familiar with.  Now, I don’t know about you, but sometimes when I hear a song for the first time, I hate it immediately, listen to the first minute or so, and that’s it for me.  Other times, I might kinda-sorta like it, but unless it’s sung by Stevie…
