Post-Doobies Michael McDonald....Here's the deal.
The solo stuff was not so hot, but he excelled in duets, and as a background vocalist, he really helped take other people's music to a whole 'nother level, especially "Ride Like the Wind" by Christopher Cross.
Even what decent stuff he did solo in the 80's was completely crapped on in the recent years with that Motown covers album.
I have a strange fascination with the vocal stylings of this man, so it makes me laugh to see us talking about him on SYboard. When I'm at a diner or a drugstore or thrift store or any place where they play piped-in music over the intercom, I say it is not time to leave until you have heard Michael McDonald or Carly Simon. If you leave before then, your experience is not complete.
