Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?
- Thread starter Daniel~
- Start date
Well the video does say doobie did it.
We hashed this very song out, and this very version, a couple or a few months ago.
George, the more I listen the more I think you're probably right, it's attributed wrongly.
But Daniel just likes digging up the muck
Here's where we did it, in October:

Dobie made a big hit from it, but it wasn't actually his song, that is for certain.
This from Wikipedia:
""Drift Away" has also been covered by many bands and vocalists around the world. Versions include those of Uncle Kracker, Allan Clarke, Roy Orbison, Ike & Tina Turner, Humble Pie, Mud, Rod Stewart, James Hollis, Waylon Jennings, Ray Charles, Michael Bolton, the Neville Brothers, Jon Bon Jovi[19], Copperhead, Christian Kane, the Rolling Stones, the Nylons, Ringo Starr, Bruce Springsteen, BoDeans, Judson Spence, Billy Joe Royal, Steve Young and John Kay.[20] Folk singer Tom Rush recorded the song on his album What I Know, released in 2009."
No mention of the Doobie Brothers.
George, you are vindicated

How good is this?
Damn, I miss the 70s.
Really good quality sound on this video, too. [It was probably lip-synched]
Here's another, older Rod doing the same song. I rather like this one, but it's not the amazing Faces [one of my favorite 70s groups]:

Amazing! I totally forgot that "Drift Away" had generated fear and doubt (in me) before. Wow, I must be far more careful in my repetitions!
Thank you ThunderRd, you are a great Member of this here joint!
I really liked this song, but I doubt I would have ever recalled it, Thanks George!
Another lost in the mist of time to me, again thanks!
So glad you made it George.":O}
Music does indeed call us together...just not by name.":O}Here's where we did it, in October:
