The Doobie Brothers Perform Black Water at Bing Lounge in Portland

Venue: McMenamins Historic Edgefield Manor Location: Troutdale, Oregon, United States Date: August 27, 2010

The Doobie Brothers were riding a career resurgence by 2010, having released their album 'World Gone Crazy' just the year before. This album, which included fresh tracks alongside the band's classic hits, marked their first new studio release in nearly a decade. The live performance of 'Black Water' at the Bing Lounge showcased not just their enduring talent but also how they connected with fans old and new. Interestingly, 'Black Water,' originally released in 1974, has become an anthem of sorts for the band, highlighting their ability to blend country, rock, and folk elements effortlessly. Performing live in a more intimate setting at McMenamins Historic Edgefield Manor allowed the brothers to rekindle that magic and show off their classic sound with a modern twist, proving that their legacy continues to thrive even into their later years.
