Minute By Minute was a watershed album for The Doobie Brothers. The veteran California band had already enjoyed the kind of career that would do any artist proud; in their nearly ten years as an entity, the Doobies had racked up seven albums, numerous Top Ten single hits, record sales totalling nearly 30 million, and near-universal acclaim as one of America's finest bands. But even they themselves had to be a little astonished by the success of Minute By Minute, Four Grammies and more than three million copies later, the album has established the Doobie Brothers as a supergroup.
