The Doobie Brothers
One Step Closer
Genre: Rock
1.75 out of 5
It’s weird to come in at the end of a well known band’s history during the project. I have no real reference to compare this, the 9th album, and the one where Michael McDonald said farewell.
My real experience with McDonald comes in the form of Rick Moranis’ impersonation of him running into the studio to sing a couple line on a track.
McDonald and the group are lucky. If they tried to make it 20 years later, his best shot would be to audition for American Idol.
We all know the hit song, “Real Love” but, ugh, it’s so cloying and annoying and I can’t figure out what McDonald is warbling. Eff it, it’s not going on the playlist.
