Patrick Simmons

But you-

Oh, the great Pat Simmons-

Yes

... with the Go Ask Molly song.

So, I mean, it's not like...

Pat Simmons.

Right.

It could be.

In 1977, the Doobie Brothers released Echoes of Love.

It was co-written by Patrick Simmons, Willie Mitchell, and Earl Randall, and this was intended originally...

To be R&B singer Al Green's song ended up on the Doobie Brothers plate, which they eagerly grabbed.

It was their second single off of the album Living on the Fault Line, hit number 66 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.

So, uh, Johnny Cola, to set him, he obviously was a member of, uh, The News, but also did a little bit of session work as well out there on the West Coast.

He played on Patrick Simmons' Arcade album, which I think may have some Yachty connection.

Pablo Cruise, Out of Our Hands.

Played for Heart, played for Nick Lowe, and a few others.

Yeah, but that probably wasn't him.

He wasn't in the band yet.

So yeah, he, uh, wrote that with Patrick Simmons.

Wow.
