The Doobie Brothers

In October 1979, when The Doobie Brothers performed in Houston at The Summit, they were riding high on the success of their album 'Minute by Minute,' which had been released just the year before. This record showcased a more polished sound that included elements of soft rock, a shift from their earlier harder rock roots. Notably, 'Minute by Minute' featured the massive hit 'What a Fool Believes,' solidifying their place in the music scene. This performance of 'Here to Love You' reflects that vibrant moment in their career, capturing the band's ability to blend intricate harmonies with catchy melodies. It's also interesting to note that by this era, the group had solidified their lineup, which included vocal powerhouse Michael McDonald. Their live shows during this time were particularly notable for their energy and musicianship, making this performance a cherished slice of their history.
