Steamworker - go to a gig, make yourself known, wait by the artistes door for an hour after the gig. This is what I did and he sent someone out to me who said - come sit inside its cold out there. Mike then sat down and talked to me for 20 minutes. He is a gentleman and a genuine good spirit. That is also why everyone in the industry loves him. I'll never forget those moments.

Too foine....just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine. Major crush on Michael McDonald from back in the day. I used to play his What A Fool Believes over and over again off a tape on this little plastic taper recorder back in the 80's. I guess I couldn't afford a stereo back then. I Keep Forgettin' and What a Fool Believes are my favorites. Saw him in concert recently and he kept running his fingers through that goregous hair, thereby making me crazy. Okay wayyyy TMI...lol!!!

Michael NcDonald hails from St Louis and follows a long line of musical greats. Miles Davis, David Sanborn, Billy Davis, Jr, Angela Windbush, Josephine Baker. So is Nashville really “ Music City ?” It takes a back seat to St Louis. Michael McDonalds voice reflects the greatness of the real Music City, St Louis

@CountWannabe9 жыл бұрын
Lisa LoveMeSomeMusic I have BLUE OBSESSION and love it, in fact there were TWO DIFFERENT versions, the first was supposed to be released by Reprise Records in 1997 but McD. left Reprise and took his recordings with him but not before Reprise had pressed a 'Demo CD' for the industry and put the album tracks on MUSE so I knew it was coming but no release happened. I saw the Demo CD on eBay and bought it. Then, he formed RAMP records with Pelonis and Bridges and released it in 2000 with three tracks replaced with different songs. So I now have BOTH the Reprise version and RAMP release. The Tracks were: Tell It Like It Is, Take It From The Top and Give It Up, all of which are very good and I don't know why he replaced them but two have been released on other 'compilation' albums and the third will probably make it on to another one. Hope this Helps.
