The drummer's terrific. This band doesn't do what it does without a killer drummer. And can we acknowledge how many killer drummer's there are in the world? In our world. We are truly blessed.
What a display of humility! For one of the most iconic male vocalists of the last 50 years to share the spotlight with a lady singer...WOW!! And of course, she killed it
This song made me start to tear up, The talent of these musicians is phenomenal, When that Lady started singing it was more than I could bare, Took me over the top!!! Goodness Sakes.
@@aimelilithe Zip it, 3rd worlder. If you had bought this DVD set or seen it all, you'd know that Donald Fagen introduced her when he went through naming the band. She's a backing singer that was unfortunately given a moment in the spotlight, ruining it for me. There is tons of talent worth mentioning before her but you dont see anyone else crying about it, do you? It's always some crybaby woman wanting more than everyone else. Go play with rope.
Ms. Monet didn't take it to the street, she took it over the top. There is such a thing as too much "soul". I can understand the desire for a gospel sound but sometimes it's taken too far. The tune, the band, you couldn't ask for more.
You call that a voice?? Sounds more like a bull that just got de-nutted! What were these two living legends thinking to even allow this wannabe on the same stage with them? The guy is a joke and has been from day one! Please, sir, do us all a favor and just disappear. For good!
I'd be honored if some late 70s/early 80s fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of WHAT A FOOL BELIEVES by Michael McDonald, HOME AT LAST by Steely Dan, and WE'RE ALL ALONE by Boz Scaggs on my YT channel in tribute to the masters of groove. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Thanks and keep on grooving.
@@snidelywhiplash Absolutely. The guy is a freakin' monster!! I like this type of subtlety, complete with musicality and chops (and Shannon has them all!).
At first I thought this was Doobie Brothers and I felt like as if I was back in church for the Sunday morning service. What a stunning piece of music this is.
Shanon Forrest is the drummer Deep ass groove I’ve been lucky to record with him a bunch of times in Nashville. Not surprised to see him in such stellar company.
It's wonderful to see Michael McDonald still singing the classics of the Doobbie Brothers. When l was a kid and young teenager l would listen to their music on the radio. The Doobie Brothers along with Michael McDonald were as soulful with their music that made a crossover into R&B as well as Pop culture. They were pioneers of producing great music that touch many people diverse cultures 🎶 🎶 🎵 🎶
I adore Michael and have fo many years also a great collaboration with these guys....my love for his voice, music, kindness, those blue eyes and wonderful beard....what a wonderful human we have here and thanks to his family for sharing him with us all!!!❤❤❤God bless Mr. McDonald🙏
I remember when he released this with the Doobie Brothers. Still just as good! Nice to hear this sister helping out on the vocals. She can really bring it!
Michael McDonald, Donald Fagen and Boz Scaggs how much better can it get than this! Great Musicians and Songwriters and Vocalist Vocalist all together..... Any thumbs down here , tells me they have no Idea whatsoever about GREAT MUSICIANS OR AMAZING VOCALIST AND SONGWRITERS TOGETHER ON THE SAME STAGE....... FABULOUS!
Shannon Forrest! The guy is starting to build up a resume' like Jeff Porcaro had back in the day. That said, he was their touring drummer for the past couple years as well.
This song should be the anthem for the time and world we are living in. The music is fantastic, but take the time to listen to the words and think. Thank you Michael
A fried pork chop with a bone in it, gravy, buttered string beans, moist biscuits, and some red soda water and do not forget the potato salad with just hint of mustard. That is what this song is...fulfilling in every way!
Every time I see a recent video of Mr. McD....he reminds me of my brother, Kerry, and it makes me miss Kerry so so so much more....they look almost identical....thank you Michael, for your wonderful music.....I wish you would write a song to help a sister and her brother to make up....it would be a BIG winner!!! I miss Kerry more than he knows...I am old, I am living in a retirement place, and I haven't seen him for well over a year...and I don't know why....I do know he's alive and working....I just miss him....he and I used to listen to all the music back in 'our' day....thank you Michael....you were kind to me when I met you back in the 70s...
Well, Meri Jewett, if your bro has anything resembling Michael M. let us chat but really - what matters is that you are so conscientious and I hope he writes you a song. If he doesn't I will. Yours truly, Ann.
...Ok...Love ...love LOVE This .....great men...Songs of my youth ....66yrs old now.....40 yrs ago ...I was Some-thing.....Old Guy now in Oregon ....9/2018
Conesha Owens, aka "Miss Monet". That is the name of the miraculous singer on this number. (With a specal "Grrrrrrr" to the person who thought he had written the credits properly)
Donald Fagan, the Nightfly, and McDonald had a rat pack of their own, super talented men. Not like today, real stories in their songs, songs that hit your brain and stayed all day with you. REAL talent, not just making it sound good in a studio.
I wish I could express how much I’d love to see the dukes in concert . So sad I missed this performance glad I at least have this to see . Thank you dukes
27 years old, this is one of the best songs I’ve ever heard, music is NOT like this at all anymore, I listened to Otis Redding back when I was a boy. Wish I was born in the 60’s
Let's take it to church and get everyone on their feet singin' along! Hot damn! Drums are killin' it, vocals by McDonald are soulful and the horn solo was an exercise in great taste. This is my kind of live gig. Gimme my guitar and let me join in! WOOF!
I had the opportunity - twice - to see the Dukes in a fantastic outdoor venue in Northern Virginia. Both shows were fabulous. I am so grateful to be able to add these shows to my wonderful memories of seeing Steely Dan's first reunion tour in 1995.
It was 1982 and the Doobie Brothers were on their “farewell“ tour. I worked in a health food store directly across the street from the Allentown, Pennsylvania Hilton, which Doobie Brothers had rented the top two floors of. Well, who should come walking into the health food store, but the whole band, including Michael McDonald Saying that they wanted to buy some drinks to take with them on the road for their next gig and Washington DC. Needles to say one of the high points of my life! I got to shake Michael’s hand as well as the other boys in the band. I will never forget it. The only other major unforgettable experience regarding rock legends was when I got to ride in a limo with Deep Purple, but that’s another story for another time. :-). Peace.
Can we talk about that drummer? Wow he is absolutely killing it on all the songs the Dukes play.
Shannon Forrest. Super-underrated drummer and unabashed Jeff Porcaro worshipper.
Saw them at Pine knob aka. DTE. The talent was Worth the price of admission. God bless.
What a sensational drummer. Kills it with Toto!!
The drummer's terrific. This band doesn't do what it does without a killer drummer. And can we acknowledge how many killer drummer's there are in the world? In our world. We are truly blessed.
Shannon is as gifted as it gets on drums
Takin’ them to church! I sang in a gospel choir for over a decade. No one ever wanted to go onstage after us.
Michael McDonald is a National Treasure he is the king of Blue-Eyed Soul
What a display of humility! For one of the most iconic male vocalists of the last 50 years to share the spotlight with a lady singer...WOW!! And of course, she killed it
No
@@captainamerica1797 How dare you disagree with me!
This song made me start to tear up, The talent of these musicians is phenomenal, When that Lady started singing it was more than I could bare, Took me over the top!!! Goodness Sakes.
You aint alone my brother!
"That lady" is Monet Owens, and it's a travesty that they didn't include her name in the title or the description.

Glad I'm not the only one that feels this way! I teared up too! This is music for the SOUL! Peace, Blessings, and Love to All Y'all ! 🙏🏽♥️
That intro. I teared up when Mikes vocals started.
“You don’t know me but I’m your brother”
Same here man
What a great voice. You can't mistake him for anyone else on earth.
No,he can't be mistaken!
Amazing pianist too.

@@markmaurer5977 th-cam.com/video/U0B6nxPfcCM/w-d-xo.html
@@markmaurer5977 Let’s hear your songs/singing.
Michael could be Minister of Music in ANY Missionary Baptist church in the USA.
Fact
😂TRUTH!
Let's do church! Michael McDonald still has it! What a soulful and blessed voice.
I'd be honored if some late 70s/early 80s fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of WHAT A FOOL BELIEVES by Michael McDonald, HOME AT LAST by Steely Dan, and WE'RE ALL ALONE by Boz Scaggs on my YT channel in tribute to the masters of groove.

Amen
Preach! You will find your brother everywhere...
Amen to that!🙏🏽
He still gas it !
Such a distinctive voice
Going to see Doobies in GR Mi soon
Can’t wait !!!!
I am in tears right now. It's time to reach out and love one another. We need it now more than ever.
It all starts with respect. Not me, but we.
@@claudedupras2492 Amen to that.
As a 60's child, I'm in tears. The division and hate we are witnessing today is unbearable 😢
Exactly I was just gonna say I hope people are absorbing the lyrics
What a cracking drummer. Knows how to respect these guys. Very subtle.
That's Shannon Forrest. Now with Toto. Clearly a killer.
Yeah, this cat is a monster! Very tasty and in the pocket. Saw him twice with Steely Dan. Sweet. He can play in my band anytime 😁😉😉
Agreed. He is a pro for sure.
@@snidelywhiplash thought it was Keith Carlock as it it basically Steely dan touring lineup
@@snidelywhiplash Absolutely. The guy is a freakin' monster!! I like this type of subtlety, complete with musicality and chops (and Shannon has them all!).
If you've never seen Michael in concert, it's worth every penny.
Vail 1988 was interstellar. Michael killed it, then he killed it again.
The pipes on that lady ❤️❤️❤️!!
Absolutely.... Who is she ?.... totally knocked it out of the park !!!
@@thedr.feelgood Monet Owens.
Crazy!!
Sax player is devastating but that female vocal.....wow unbelievable power girl got serious chops!!!!!!😱😱🤯🤯🤯
God my generation had the BEST music ever and guess what? We knew it then !!!
Absolutely. We were spoiled for choice and choice, I may add, of quality music, musicians and bands.
At first I thought this was Doobie Brothers and I felt like as if I was back in church for the Sunday morning service. What a stunning piece of music this is.
The whole band is just awesome!!! What a great line up!
Shanon Forrest is the drummer
Deep ass groove
I’ve been lucky to record with him a bunch of times in Nashville.
Not surprised to see him in such stellar company.
he is indeed a star percussionist. thnx for calling out his name.
Steely drummer too after Keith . Both superb I like Keith w steely better and Shannon is absolutely perfect for The Dukes.
He has also been a drummer of Toto within the past 10 years or so.
Deep ass groove? Yes. Holy Moly....
Yeah man I also noticed that he does a terrific job here!
This lady started her career in a church choir, God Bless
Oh,the good ole 70s, great great music! Will never return!😢
That drummer never missed a note on any of these songs..im in church
Amazing how all three of these guys retain their great voices...
This dude is a total STUD.........never fails in his performance.......wish I was as good at my gig.......
Don't forget the outstanding drummer...!
Shannon Forrest .. nearest to JP a human can get
Amen to that...!
Michael is the voice of a generation!
I played his music all the way down to the Outer Banks back in the early 70's.
From the frontliners to the whole band, a masterpiece.
how could you be sitting and not PRAISING this is some straight church
Wow that young lady is truly incredible. What a talent. Of course Michael is a legend.
That girl has got some serious pipes. Awesome.....

I adore Michael and have fo many years also a great collaboration with these guys....my love for his voice, music, kindness, those blue eyes and wonderful beard....what a wonderful human we have here and thanks to his family for sharing him with us all!!!❤❤❤God bless Mr. McDonald🙏
I’m 70 and have been a fan since I was young. I can listen and watch The Dukes videos over and over again - and I do! Jon Herington is my fav!
I didn't know this existed. All of my favorite players and voices together. I LOVE IT!
That's all you've got? Sad
Check out Darryl's House, awsome also!
This was a fantastic PBS Great Performances concert at Lincoln Center. We made a donation and were lucky enough to reserve seats as a result.
I didn't either. This is the best compliation of artists! :-)
Best of the best ... can you even imagine a concert!!!
I remember when he released this with the Doobie Brothers. Still just as good! Nice to hear this sister helping out on the vocals. She can really bring it!
Never underrated him, it was amazing what he did with the Doobie brothers, playing and vocals!
Amen, brothers and sister!!!!! Let's all take it to the streets, with MIchael, Boz, and Donald!!!
Jesus! This song made my day! I went to a real Baptist church!
So Dukes of September means they're in the autumn of their lives? They definitely can sing and play.
This is PHENOMENAL! Michael McDonald you still got it!
I was at this show! What a great night of fabulous music with incredibly talented players
He's brilliant! What happened to all the Old School music, I'm still loving it ! 😃❤️❤️❤️
Sadly it got pushed aside for Rap.
Michael inventing a whole new time signature.
This is just some damn fine American music.
That lady makes me want to go to church!!!!!!!
+Weezer VanTrout GREAT COMMENT!
She's amazing.
yummy
lmao
That lady is Miss Monet. She's amazing!
Love the introduction of the song on the piano, especially. Your lady who sings with you in your song, she did outstanding work.
Three legends of modern music performing together! Take it to the streets man!

Michael is a gift from God his soulful voice is just incredible every time I hear his voice it brings a smile and joy to my soul and heart!! 💯

That brought a tear to my eye...So good...
Michael McDonald, Donald Fagen and Boz Scaggs how much better can it get than this!

This was a performance masterclass right here. Michael McDonald was definitely on it here.
One of Michael's most prolific and soul personified song in the world🎙🎹🎶🥰
This song should be the anthem for the time and world we are living in. The music is fantastic, but take the time to listen to the words and think.
Thank you Michael
I’m dead. 3 of my fave musicians ever, that back up singer is one helluva voice.
A fried pork chop with a bone in it, gravy, buttered string beans, moist biscuits, and some red soda water and do not forget the potato salad with just hint of mustard. That is what this song is...fulfilling in every way!

Was fortunate to see them In Las Vegas ....me and my concert sidekick had a great time at their show! RIP Robert miss you my friend.
The talent is breathtaking !! Saw the NY Rock and Soul Review @ The Beacon Theater .. this brings it all back and then some !!
Best version of Takin It To The Streets ever!
