5.0 out of 5 stars A real toe tapper! Great listening!, January 28, 2004
By William B Ashworth (Toronto, ON Canada) - See all my reviews
Michael McDonald has always been a favourite singer of mine. His deep baritone voice from the Doobie Brothers hit "Takin It To The Streets" remains a favourite. So, when I started to hear his voice on the MCI commercials I got curious. Was this a one time thing or was an album in the making. As it turns out, it was the latter and I immediately went out and bought the CD. I wasn't disappointed. Now, when I leave the drive way in the morning I immediately turn on "Signed, Sealed, Delivered" and it gets me totally excited about the day ahead.

I've recommended the CD to countless friends with different musical tastes and they've all loved it. With so much crap being made today from American Idol singers and the like, it's good to see a real talent being recognized.

With the exception of a few artists like Elvis Presley and Frank Sinatra, who are in a class by themselves, most gifted artists of any era, do more than one thing well. Certainly, in MM's case it's singing and piano playing.

Buy the CD, you'll enjoy it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Motown is Magic for Michael McDonald Fans, June 24, 2003
By philippe sampaio (Glendale, AZ United States) - See all my reviews
Any fan of Michael McDonald...or simply any fan of great and lasting music is in for the listening treat of a lifetime in Michael McDonald's latest release: "Motown." Filled with soulful renditions of some beloved Motown classics, only a singer of McDonald's caliber, talent and background could manage to breathe new life into such timeless tunes as "I Heard it Through the Grapvine" and "Signed, Sealed and Delivered." Somewhere in the Heavens the late, great Marvin Gaye must be smiling down on Michael. Here he truly delivers. This is the kind of wonderful CD that comes around only once every decade or so...the kind you keep playing over and over in your CD player and never have the urge to take it out. This music soars and so will your heart with Motown!
