Question
Who else sang "Listen to the music"?  A women was singing it on the radio the other day and I cannot remember the name of the group.

Answer
Dear Andy,

LISTEN TO THE MUSIC was originally recorded by the DOOBIE BROTHERS. Written by their guitarist TOM JOHNSTON, it was included in their album titled TOULOUSE STREET released in 1972. It was the first single from the album and peaked at No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart on November 4, 1972, their very first chart hit.

Recently, it was revived by the British band INCOGNITO for their 2004 album ADVENTURES IN BLACK SUNSHINE.

Expertise

I can answer just about everything from the 80`s, rock, pop, trivias, artist infos, Billboard chart positions, albums, etc. But songs that became hit in the Philippines and OPM songs are my expertise. I grew on 80`s music and still listening to 80`s music as it is the best era in music history for me. My friends call me the walking encyclopedia of 80`s music. I got books & collections of CDs, all from the 80`s.

Experience

Let's just say music is my life and my source is a lifetime of knowledge about 80's music and then some.
