The Doobie Brothers

In September 1979, The Doobie Brothers graced the stage at Madison Square Garden for the No Nukes concerts, a series aimed at promoting nuclear disarmament. This live performance came shortly after the release of their album 'Livin' on the Fault Line', which had dropped earlier that year. It's fascinating to note that this album featured a mix of new material and collaborations, emphasizing their evolving sound. At this point in their career, the band was already enjoying significant success, blending rock, country, and soul elements, making them a staple of the era. Their participation in the No Nukes concerts not only showcased their musical prowess but also highlighted their commitment to social causes, which was a big deal in the late '70s. It was a time when music and activism coalesced, and The Doobie Brothers were right at the heart of it all.
