The Doobies did record one last album with the original members, Cycles in 1989. Tom Johnston sang lead on that one. It produced one last charted single for them, The Doctor, which went to #9 on the Billboard Hot 100. Even though I love the Doobies earlier stuff, that last single remains one of my all-time favorites.

Yeah, Michael McD, while being a pretty good singer, wasn't really a good fit for the Doobies. I rank him up there with Peter Cetera when he took over lead vocals for Chicago.

don’t think it charted but this is one my favorite new era songs from 1991

But Cetera was there from the beginning and sang on a lot of Chicago songs, before he (and David Foster) took over the band. Plus he was a damn good bass player.
