The Doobie Brothers

In 1982, as the Doobie Brothers were embarking on their Farewell Tour, they performed the iconic "China Grove" live at the breathtaking Red Rocks Amphitheatre. This performance came shortly after the release of their album "Farewell," which compiled some of their greatest hits and served as a bittersweet farewell to fans. Interestingly, the band had been through a series of lineup changes and stylistic evolutions over their career, but at this point, they had firmly established their unique sound that blended rock, country, and soul. Notably, their decision to perform live at such a legendary venue added an emotional weight to the recording, highlighting their enduring legacy in the music scene. This concert, packed with energy and nostalgia, marks a poignant chapter in their history, as the group explored both their musical past and what lay ahead.
