Music reviews of Very Best Of: Sweet Freedom
Music Review: Shine Sweet Freedom, shine your light on me!
Rating: 4 Stars
Thus begins this excellent solo hits compilation for Michael McDonald, whom, for some reason, I always thought was English. As it turns out, he's from St. Louis, Missouri. Anyway, the former Doobie Brother has managed to create and maintain a really great selection of great music tracks that have been radio staples for quite a while. However, as some people might not be aware of, this collection is way back from 1986, which means Michael's late '80's and '90's material are absent. And I do certainly hope that eventually there is a second CD which chronicles those songs, as I know that I've heard them before, whatever they're called. Anyway, the songs I really like from this collection are the title track "Sweet Freedom", "(I'll Be Your) Angel", my absolute favorite "Yah Mo B There" with James Ingram, who is an excellent soulful singer in his own right, I remember another song of his, "I Don't Have The Heart". I also like "I Keep Forgettin'", "On My Own" with Patti LaBelle, a good female soul singer, "No Lookin' Back", and the late '70's Doobie Brothers hit "What A Fool Believes", which Kenny Loggins co-wrote with McDonald. All in all, a great collection. And hey there, "Mistermaxx", I see that you and I still continue to have a greatly similar taste in music, I hope you're doing all right. Keep up the good work, by the way. Like I said, I hope that there will eventually be another CD that includes the rest of McDonald's radio hits. Who knows, maybe later. Bye now!
