10. Yeah, no I'm in no way saying that the Doobies messed around, they ARE playing the song live, that's all legit

It's just I think the youtuber got ahold of the dry/raw studio tracks and mixed those in with the real live recording from 1974, for the presentation in this particular video. Some of these youtubers are actually really skilled with sound editing/mixing and video syncing.

Anyways, I was only meaning to say was it was messing w/my brain a bit because it's very clear the vocals you're hearing are the actual, live ones, *but* then the acoustic came in for LTTM and I'm like whaaaaaaa?

Cheers, Professor
