The Captain and Me
Taking off on the commercial success of 'Toulouse Street', 'The Captain and Me' propelled the Doobie Brothers to superstar status. Having spent an entire year on the charts after its March 1973 release, the band's third record features one classic after another, not to mention an even-keeled balance between gritty rock fare and mellow balladry that highlights the group's chemistry and songwriting prowess. Ther's also a guest turn on pedal steel by Steely Dan alum Jeff 'Skunk' Baxter, who'd officially crack the Doobie Brothers' lineup the following year. Sourced from the original analog master tapes, pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing in California, and housed in a Stoughton gatefold jacket, Mobile Fidelity's numbered-edition 180g 45RPM 2LP presents The Captain and Me in definitive sound. Given the luxurious room of a 45RPM version for the first time and benefiting from the wider grooves, the music unfolds amid large soundstages replete with ultra-quiet backgrounds, vivid dynamics, and sharp imaging. Ted Templeman's excellent production charms like never before.
