Frank Zappa
Frank Zappa referenced the Doobie Brothers a few times:
- In Case You've Never Heard Of Our Group...: "We are not the Doobie Brothers".
- Homemade Radio Spot Outtakes: "This album does not contain James Taylor, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, Alice Cooper, Ry Cooder, Van Dyke Parks, Van Morrison, Black Sabbath, Jerry Garcia, Little Feat, Captain Beefheart, T-Rex, The Doobie Brothers, Mother Earth, Rod Stewart, or Dee! And I am not kidding. Someone asked me, someone asked me, "Listen, Eddie, Eddie, listen, I read the Circular. You guys, The Mothers are never mentioned in the Circular! Always talking about Joni Mitchell, and Neil Young, and Alice Cooper, and Ry Cooder, and Black Sabbath, and Jerry Garcia, and Little Feat, and The Doobie Brothers, a whole lot of Doobie Brothers, and Mother Earth, you know? All you ever see about The Mothers is that they're playing in some [towering] in some place."
- Carolina Hard-Core Ecstasy: "She put a Doobie Brothers tape on." (the band quotes Listen to the Music in the background too).
