Do you know the Doobie Brothers?! How about classic songs like "Long Train Runnin'" and "What A Fool Believes"? Well, meet the incredible bassist that laid down those iconic tracks along with a ton of other popular Doobie songs. I've been a fan of Tiran since I was young and have been wanting to feature him on this channel for some time. Let's dig into his best bass lines from his first tenure with the Doobies (1972-1980) and what makes them so special!

Special thanks to my buddy ‪@toddhamby‬ for the inspiration to do this one! If you search "Tiran Porter" on YouTube, you will most certainly find him playing amazing versions of Tiran's lines!
