Michael McDonald - Takin' It To The Streets (From "This Christmas - Live in Chicago" DVD & Blu-Ray)

http://www.eagle-rock.com/artist/308144/Michael+McDonald


Multi-Grammy Award winner Michael McDonald has had a hugely successful career over four decades with firstly Steely Dan, then with the Doobie Brothers and finally as a solo artist. This festive concert was filmed in high definition in Chicago in 2009. It combines traditional and original Christmas songs featured on Michael's two Christmas albums bookended with classic tracks from both his solo career and his time with the Doobie Brothers. Michael McDonald's distinctive husky, soulful voice is perfectly suited to this material, which he delivers with sincerity on the more thoughtful songs and with a real panache on the fun numbers. This DVD makes a perfect addition to anyone's Christmas collection.

The "occupiers" should wake-up and realized this should be their "theme song." Just sayin'!

I'm just approaching 50 y.o. I loved this guy's influence (dominance) in the Doobie Brothers when I was a kid. I've seen him many times over my lifetime, most recently in a beautiful combination tour of him, Boz Scaggs, and Donald Fagen - it was great. But, I have to say, I THINK THIS IS THE MOST KISS-ASS, MUSICAL, SPIRITUAL, PERFORMANCE AND RECORDING I'VE EVER EXPERIENCED!

I could care less about his religion, hes a damn good singer and thats all that matters

[rjmcdnnll]

'you dont know my kind in this world... I was raised here in this living hell ' Michael is referring to Heaven and 'VERY SOON THE TIME WILL TELL' Jesus is coming back very soon, listen to your heart!!! You must have JESUS CHRIST in your life to get to heaven! EVERYBODY lives forever!!, heaven or hell.... your choice

p.s. I know that Michael would agree!!!
