Thanks for sending me on a hunt. From their official website (look under the biography tab):

We feel fortunate to have had solid support from the listening public for our efforts with songs ranging in style from the bluesy rock of Long Train Runnin' to the country tinged Black Water to the gospel/jazz...

The Doobie Brothers NEVER EVER claimed to be part of the San Fran scene. No one would ever lump them into that grotesque list of yours.

did I say I liked them? I do not like Journey. A lot of those bands were good at first, then became bloated mundane boring fat cats, though when I saw Steve Miller in 1970 he was already fat.

and being that the Doobie Brothers claimed (falsely, though they are from a city just to the south) to have been a San Francisco band, aren't you saying they suck too?

"We Built This City" wasn't Jefferson Airplane. It wasn't even Jefferson Starship. It was Starship.

None of whom, incidentally, were SOUTHERN FUCKING ROCK BANDS!!!

San Francisco has never, ever produced listenable music. The very thought of the Haight Ashbury scene makes me nauseous.

Yeah, "We Built This City" really pwns something. Hot Tuna is unlistenable, GDead are total crap and dont get me started on Big Brother

back when I was seeing them around San Jose, they were considered a joke - after all the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Big Brother & the Holding Company, Hot Tuna and all the other San Francisco bands totally pwnd them. I couldn't believe it when I left SJ and found out the were a radio hit in Arizona.

OK. Before Michael McDonald they were just shitty, not shitty and pussified.

The Doobies Bros were NOT pussified pre Mike McDonald. Long Train Runnin pwns any fucking Skynrd. BUT YOU ARE RIGHT THEY ARE SOUTHERN!!!!!!

I've always thought of the Doobie Brothers as a Southern rock band. A shitty, pussified Southern rock band, but southern nonetheless. 'Southern rock' is a sound; it has nothing to do with where the band members come from.

I have never, ever considered (or heard anyone refer to) CCR, the Band, Def Leppard or REM as "Southern Rock" bands.

Skynard pwns all Southern rock bands and is one of the great American rock band.
