Grade: A+
The Doobie Brothers’ 13th studio album, “World Gone Crazy,” finds the band in the best shape it has been in a long time. The album is solid from start to finish, invoking memories of the past while still staying grounded in groovy goodness. The Doobie Brothers reached out to other stars from the past for this album, and it features collaborations with both Willie Nelson and Michael McDonald. “World Gone Crazy” never tries too hard. Instead, it establishes itself as a quality rock ‘n’ roll record.
