John McFee solo on “Let it Rain”

Post by Mike Bacciarini »

The Doobies and Peter Frampton just posted this classic with a tasty little psg from John. Such a cool song.... Eric Clapton got inspired by Stephen Stills’ “Questions”. Both great tunes.

Those guys can still bring it eh? That Infinity on the little steel solo sounded great.

Frampton is playing the 'back-from-the-dead' LP right? Amazing story in itself.

There are only two options as I see it.
Either I'm right, or there is a sinister conspiracy to conceal the fact that I'm right.

Yeh, just what we want to see: tons of guitar solos and one tiny steel solo.
Cant understand these groups, national and as well as local who have 3 lead guitar players in the band-how about 3 steel players?

Pretty neat that these old road dogs are still making music. Nice little steel solo.

Thanks for posting another of the Doobie Bros. quarantine videos. All of them that I've seen are very enjoyable to watch/listen.
