Doobie Brothers/Osaka,Japan 1976

The first performance of the Doobie Brothers’ 1976 Japan tour, the performance at Osaka Welfare Pension Hall on January 11th, was recorded in high quality audience recording for about 2 hours. This is a must-have for fans, using the master cassette directly, which is not available even among traders. The powerful sound of the audience is overwhelmed by the vivid recording. The thick sound that rushes powerfully on the double drums of John Hartman and Keith Knudsen and the rhythm section full of intense groove played by Tyran Porter is truly overwhelming. Pat Simmons and Jeff Baxter’s expressive guitar playing is a great listening experience for every song. The audience’s handclaps are recorded loudly, but the musical tones are not lost, so you can listen to it without stress. Please enjoy the full picture of the Doobie’s first performance in Japan, which can be heard in a superb atmosphere full of excitement.
