In Nashville Studio, Dubai Prakurz is preparing for another summer tour, playing “Train Runnin”. After more than 50 years have passed, and 48 million albums have been sold, they still want to make sure they look sharp, even on visits he played thousands of times.
It was in 1973, when co -founder Tom Johnston wrote words for the countryside, who were distorting for years in bars and clubs.
Idible or lower
Half a mile from here
We see long trains runnin
And you watch it disappear
Without love
Where will you be now?
(Without Lo-OOOOOOOOOOOO -V)
How long did it take to reach the words? “I would like to say it was a work of love, but it was not; it was about 20 minutes in the bathroom using tiles to sing with him,” Johnston said.

Who tells us something when it comes to writing Dubi Bradh’s songs Michael McDonald participated with “Sunday morning” a few years agoPatrick Simmons (who wrote the first number 1 of the band, “Black Water”), sometimes says, sometimes says Patrick Simmons (who wrote the first number 1 of the band, “Black Water”), says it is less complicated.
“Accidents occurred,” Simons laughed. “A lot of things fall from the sky and hit you on your head, do you know?”
The Dobie Brothers sing “Train Runnin”:
But you cannot argue with their methods. this week, Johnston, Meddonald and Simons will be recruited in the Hall of Celebrities of Songs Book.
John Mcific was a 38 -year -old member. When asked about Johnston, Mondonal and Simons, McVy laughed, “There is a reason to incite the famous song hall. I am a writer, and I nominated songs for my grassy. this How good are these men! “

Doobie members join legendary song compositions such as Lennon, McCartney, John and Taupin and Holland-Dozier-Holland. Johnston said: “I think we are all proud of it,” Johnston said. “When we started doing this several years ago, no one was thinking about anything like that.”
Is confession such? McDonald said: “To be with these people, it is what matters. You think that you, as you know, as you know, in any category you do not wish.”
The famous song hall is far from the house on 12th Street in San Jose, California, where Simmons and Johnston started the band. “When we started doing this, we were just trying to pay the rent and put the gas in your Volkswagen and wandering, do you know?” Johnston said.
In a motorcycle bars such as Chateau Liberté, they sharpened their southern rocky voice that drives his hard car … a slight style when Johnston left the band in the late seventies of the last century, and McDonald joined, and brought with him a simply feeling that he pushes the band to the album of multi -lotin sale “accurate at a moment” in 1978.
“What a fool thinks”, from Dubai Bracez album, “Minate by Minute”:
If the changes in employees, sound and elegance have created breeds and books between some of Doobies as younger men, the historical fifty -year round in 2021, when it seems that these four United play together for the first time, melts them away. “Michael came to do some offers with us, and commented about us!” Simmons said.
I asked, “One of them told me …” They are retired as well.
“I think they said they were in line with Elderly Or something like this! “Simons laughed.
“We all appreciate it more over time, how lucky we are and all the good things that make up part of the band, do you know?”
“I suddenly realized,” McDonald added.
Because it is still the most happy thing you can do? “Certainly,” said Johnston.
“It is an hour or two, we get the theater, as we already feel that we are in their twenties again,” McDonald said. “The rest of the day, we feel a large extent 75!”
This feeling sparked a new studio album, “Walk This Road”, and another teacher:
“It was originally a kind of like,” he said, “Hey, comrades, you have been doing this first album for a long time,” McDonald said. Together over the years, I was 50 years old. This road went together, as you know? Let’s write a song about that. “
Simons laughed: “We all made mistakes, we all have things we hope to make some different options at times. The options we have made, and you look at that, and go,” Oh my God, I hope I have learned something! “
Destruction, loneliness and cohesion-not only good topics, but those that deserve the hall, and are related to the Dubai brothers, and all of us.
McDonald said: “We all live on this small blue ball. We are all walking in the same way. Only by virtue of that, you know? We will learn to learn to communicate with each other and listen to each other, do you know?”
“This could be a really great thing!” Simon’s 76 -year -old commented.
Perhaps a muffled laugh – as the Dubi brothers think more than 50 years together.
He was asked about the time when this will continue, McDonald replied, “This is the guess of anyone.”
“We are the seventies division in a completely different sense now!” My laugh is laughed.
