"Time Is Here And Gone" by The Doobie Brothers

The Doobie Brothers were among the top 30 bands of the 70s, scoring major classic hits like "Listen To The Music" (#11 in 1972), "Long Train Runnin'" (#8 in 1973), "Black Water" (#1 in 1974), and "What A Fool Believes" (#1 in 1979). After they hit the top 10 again in 1980 with the #5 song "Real Love", the band struggled to get back to the upper end of the charts and disbanded in 1983.

Some members of the band reformed by 1989 and released a comeback record called "Cycles". "Cycles" proved that people were still hungry for new music by the Doobies, scoring a #17 position on the chart. The first single, "The Doctor", also put the band back into the top 10 (#9) one last time.

"Time Is Here And Gone" is an underrated little ditty from their comeback record. Incidentally, there is no one named Doobie in the band, nor are any of the members brothers.
