Somehow it has always been unfashionable to love Michael McDonald... but I've always been taken to a unique poignant place hearing him sing. Fan for life. Also: great discovering you guys!

Unfashionable? Never heard that! Call me unfashionable and serve me up a side of Michael!🎙🎶🤩

Michael McDonald has one of those voices that you know it's him right when you hear him. One of my favorites. Listen to some of his songs with the Doobie Brothers. I love your channel, your spirit, your connection & your chemistry.

Check out the really good bass line on this song. Michael was pretty much the voice of the '70s & '80s - making appearances on many other artists songs as well as his own and the Doo Bee Brothers songs.

That bass groove...yummy! Courtesy of the great, legendary Louis Johnson. Perfection delivered "overnight express" from the fingers of a supremely gifted man playing a classic, baddass-sounding Fender bass!

Definitely more Michael McDonald! From his time with the Doobie, Brothers... Minute by Minute Takin it to the Streets It Keeps You Running Then on to his solo career... Ya Mo Be There (with James Ingram) No Looking Back Sweet Freedom Blink of an Eye (this will take you to church!) All in Love is Fair (Stevie Wonder cover) Higher Ground (another Stevie Wonder song) On My Own (duet with Patti Labelle) And, of course, his unique vocal contributions to so many Steely Dan songs like Peg Reeling in the Years Bad Sneakers What a voice!

If you thought Michael Macdonald was cool, you gotta get with people with blue eyed soul like: this is it from Kenny Loggins, Square Biz and/or Out on a Limb by Teena Marie, and Father Figure by George Michael. They're all fire. -Jocelyn
