Another special show last week. Not a birthday show as was the case with John Fogerty the week before. The Doobie Brothers - Walk This Road Release Event featured a new album release by this Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member band (inducted in 2020). It took place in a relatively small Venue, Irving Plaza. Again accompanied by my daughter Marisa. We did not know what to expect. A few cuts from the new album got teaser releases. Did they plan to play "Walk This Road" in its entirety? Evidently, they did not. They sprinkled in the first four cuts of a 10 song album,: Walk This Road, Angels & Mercy, Call Me and Learn to Let Go.
They opened the show with Take Me in Your Arms and closed with Long Train Runnin' into China Grove before delivering an encore featuring Black Water, Takin' it to The Streets and Listen to the Music (Marisa posted a clip to Facebook.); everyone sang along to this final tune.
