FX on Doobies' *Keeps you running*?

[bassteban]

Pretty prominent- phaser? Flanger? Dinosaur-era chorus of some sort?

Definitely some sort of effects...and Michael McDonald rips it up on this song!

Yeah, I veered off into late-model DB's/Michael McDonald- some treasures over here!

Don't know what chorus pedal but certainly chorus. Maybe even Electric Mistress? There were not that many chorus pedals at that time, Boss Chorus and some other brands where Boss and Electric Mistress were mostly used by musicians.

BTW, a little bit chorus in the bass sound creates early eighties-like vibe.

Maybe this Tiran Porter interview gives more clues:
