My Take
Tiran Porter is exactly the kind of musician I gravitate toward: the steady architect rather than the spotlight-grabber. As the bassist anchoring the Doobie Brothers through their peak years, he supplied the low-end foundation and harmonic color that made those songs feel so solid. What I respect most is the craftsman's temperament; he served the song instead of his ego. The fact that he left and later came back speaks to a real bond with the band. Players like him rarely get headlines, but the groove would collapse without them. I'd happily give him more credit than history usually does.
