analog vinyl pressing - the way music was meant to be heard. Out of Print forever!!

There have been so few vinyl LPs produced over the last 5 years that you should never pass up the opportunity to upgrade your collection. They're each very limited in their pressings and disappear with extraordinary quickness from the vinyl market. This causes prices to skyrocket because once they are gone, they are gone forever! Don't second-guess yourself with this chance to upgrade your collection because before you know it, the opportunity will have passed forever.  

THE CAPTIAN & ME - Here is their successful third album with not one, but four major hit singles like "China Grove," Long Train Runnin'," "South City Midnight Lady" and "Without You." Original graphics, deluxe gatefold cover, half-speed mastered for the very first time from the original Warner vault tapes at Friday Music Studios by Joe Reagoso and at Capitol Records with Ron McMaster.

MINUTE BY MINUTE - This 4X Grammy Award winning album from 1979 includes some of their biggest hits like "What A Fool Believes," "Minute By Minute" and "Dependin' On You."

The Doobie Brothers are an American institution. Founded in 1970 in the San Francisco Bay area, they continue to tour yearly, and release new music on a regular basis. Friday Music Vinyl is proud to kick off its first release with such a great rock classic like Minute By Minute.

STAMPADE - TREMENDOUSLY RARE LONG OUT OF PRINT MASTERPIECE - THIS FOREIGN pressings are sent with the vinyl outside of the jackets when being shipped to the U.S. to protect the covers from damage.

Album Notes
Doobie Brothers: Patrick Simmons, Tom Johnston (vocals, guitar); Tiran Porter (vocals, bass); Keith Knudsen (vocals, drums); Jeff "Skunk" Baxter (guitar); John Hartman (drums).Additional personnel: Maria Muldaur (vocals); Ry Cooder (guitar); Conte Condoli, Pete Condoli (trumpet); Billy Payne (keyboards); Victor Feldman (marimba, percussion); Carl Himmle (drums, percussion); Bobbye Hall Porter (congas); Shirlie Matthews, Venetta Fields, Jessica Smith (background vocals).Recorded at Warner Bros. Recording Studios, North Hollywood, California.With a former Steely Dan guitar wiz now a full time member of the band, the Doobie Brothers decided to branch out from their trademark West Coast pop/rock. This is a far more ambitious album than its predecessors. The album's centerpiece (and at over six minutes, the longest track) is "I Cheat the Hangman," which begins as a folkish harmony piece a la David Crosby's "Guinevere," and then goes off on an extended instrumental break. Other high points include a satisfying cover of Kim Weston's Motown classic "Take Me in Your Arms," the bluesy country of "Texas Lullabye," and "Star Key Sequel Rag," a lovely acoustic guitar instrumental with something of a Renaissance feel.

WORLD GONE CRAZY - There's no separating the unparalleled legacy of The Doobie Brothers from their upcoming release "World Gone Crazy." The Doobie Brothers have honored the broader, 40-year band's legacy with a new studio album that grows in unexpected directions. Founding members Tom Johnston and Pat Simmons are joined by longtime members John McFee and Mike Hosack. Ted Templeman, the producer behind the band's biggest hits and other classics (Van Halen, Eric Clapton, Carly Simon, etc.) returns to re-ignite the special chemistry that audiences have embraced for the past four decades.

BONUS LP WITHIN THIS COLLECTION

With his husky, soulful baritone, Michael McDonald became one of the most distinctive and popular vocalists to emerge from the laid-back California pop/rock scene of the late '70s. McDonald found the middle ground between blue-eyed soul and smooth soft rock, a sound that made him a star. He initially essayed his signature style with the Doobie Brothers, ushering in the group's most popular period with hits like "What a Fool Believes" and "Taking It to the Streets." McDonald disbanded the group in 1982 to pursue a solo career, which was initially quite successful, but by the end of the decade his popularity had faded away, since he was reluctant to work regularly and hesitant to update his sound to suit shifting popular tastes.

After singing backup on several Steely Dan albums in the mid-'70s, Michael McDonald joined the Doobie Brothers in 1977. He was largely responsible for moving the group away from boogie rock and toward polished, jazzy blue-eyed soul. Prior to the Doobies' farewell tour in 1982, he sang harmony on several hit singles, including tracks by Donna Summer, Toto, Kenny Loggins, and Christopher Cross. As it turned out, McDonald's solo work was a cross between the Doobie Brothers' white-bread soul and Cross' adult contemporary ballads.

McDonald released his solo debut, If That's What It Takes, in 1982. The record climbed to number six on the strength of the number four single "I Keep Forgettin' (Every Time You're Near)," which also crossed over into the R&B Top Ten. In 1983, he had another Top 20 pop hit (and a Top Ten R&B hit) with his duet with James Ingram, "Yah Mo B There." McDonald didn't deliver his second solo album, No Lookin' Back, until 1985. The record wasn't as successful as its predecessor, producing only one moderate hit in its title track. He bounced back the following year, when his duet with Patti LaBelle, "On My Own," shot to number one and "Sweet Freedom," his theme for the Billy Crystal/Gregory Hines comedy Running Scared, climbed into the Top Ten.

Instead of capitalizing on his revitalized success, McDonald didn't release another album until 1990. The resulting Take It to Heart was a bomb, peaking at number 110. Two years later, his fortunes were revived somewhat when he sang on Aretha Franklin's minor hit "Ever Changing Times" and toured with Donald Fagen's New York Rock and Soul Revue. The following year, he released Blink of an Eye, which was ignored. In 1994, "I Keep Forgettin' (Every Time You're Near)" was sampled heavily in Warren G's smash hit "Regulate." By 1996, McDonald had returned to the Doobie Brothers, touring the oldies circuit with the reunited group. The following year, McDonald released Blue Obsession, his first album of new material in three years. He released a Christmas album (In the Spirit: A Christmas Album) in 2001, and began a series of recordings devoted to the Motown catalog with 2003's Motown. Motown Two and Soul Speak followed in 2004 and 2008 respectively. 

DOOBIE BROTHERS - ONE STEP CLOSER - ORIGINAL 1980 RELEASE

Album Notes
Doobie Brothers: Patrick Simmons, John McFee (vocals, guitar); Cornelius Bumpus (vocals, saxophone, organ); Michael McDonald (vocals, keyboards); Keith Knudsen (vocals, drums); Tiran Porter (bass); Chet McCracken (drums, percussion).Additional personnel: Christopher Thompson, Nicolette Larson (vocals); Joel Peskin (baritone saxophone); Jerome Jumonville (saxophone); Bill Armstrong, Lee Thornburg (trumpet); Patrick Henderson (keyboards); Bobby LaKind, Ted Templeman (percussion).The Doobie's last album before hanging it up for nearly a decade featured new personnel (in particular hot shot guitarist John McFee). But Michael McDonald was still running the show with his firm grasp on sophisticated pop soul. The title track here could be the best thing McDonald ever did, mating an ebullient tune in his "What a Fool Believes" style with a chorus that borders on power pop. Nothing else quite matches that, although "Real Love" and "Keep This Train A Rollin'" come close. "South Bay Strut" continues the band's tradition of including tempo changes in the instrumental breaks; it's a slick piece of fusion jazz that lets McFee strut his stuff.
