5.0 out of 5 stars Definitely his best, February 8, 2001

By	Surjorimba Suroto (Jakarta, Indonesia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I was a big fan of Michael Mc Donald since he was in Doobie Brothers. Listening to this album brings back old memories. Most hits are here: Takin' it To The Streets, What a Fool Believes, On My Own, Yah Mo Be There, Sweet Freedom (single version), Ever Changing Times, etc. Unfortunately the longer version of Sweet Freedom is not here. His collaboration with David pack is also here. The sound quality is good. If you like Doobie Brothers, Kenny Loggins, Steely Dan, early Toto, then you must have this album. it's a good place to start enjoying Mc Donald's works.

3.0 out of 5 stars Okay but is confusing, May 4, 2008

By	Catherine Goltz "a music lover" (Washington DC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Released shortly before the U.S. compilationThe Very Best of Michael McDonald came out with the same covers but without the Doobie Brothers and session tracks.
1-4 are Doobie Brothers songs. Oddly enough they included the "female" version of You Belong to Me in the liner notes but Michael of course changed the lyrics. Also "Minute By Minute" from the live "New York Rock and Soul Revue" is included as are session work with David Pack ("I Just Can't Go") and Aretha Franklin (Ever Changing Times)
