Customer Reviews of Blink of an Eye
An underrated, bittersweet classic It has been 10 years since I first heard BLINK and until recently I did not appreciate the greatness of this R & B,blues,soul classic. HEY GIRL is an all time heart breaker,Mr. McDonald always stops the show at his concerts when he sings this timeless King/Goffin piece. I never understood why this didnt get the play it deserved..Mr. McDonald has a voice fromthe angels and will always be up there with Jackie Wilson, Luther Vandross, SamCooke, Jeffrey Osborne and Otis Redding with his fantastic arrangements of love songs.....the man cando no wrong musicially. If you do not have this one...run to a music store or get on line and buy it and listen with your heart, your soul and you spirit over and over...you will fall in love. Peg in SD
SMOOTH AND SMOKY
When it comes to mastery of the "blue-eyed soul," few artists have been as successful as Michael McDonald. From his days with the Doobie Brothers to his under-rated solo career, McDonald's voice has been one of the smoothest and smokiest of our time. This CD, released in 1993, is one of his best solo efforts, and far surpasses his most recent disappointment, "Blue Obsession." His cover of "Hey Girl" is beautiful and emotional; "Matters of the Heart" is another winner, a song that even Bonnie Raitt couldn't surpass Mike on; "I Stand for You" and "Blink of an Eye" are also well sung and produced. This isn't as good as his "If That's What it Takes" or "Take This Heart", but it is vintage McDonald and worthy addition to anyone's CD library.
Major Improvement!
To this day, I still cannot understand why Michael McDonald is so underrated, and this CD is proof of that. The slow tunes, I will admit, leave a little to be desired; too sleep-inducing. But the one exception is "Hey Girl", one beautiful song that doesn't give Michael the credit he deserves. I've heard this remake by several other artists and not even Billy Joel can match up to him and his outstanding voice. Other powerful songs are the title track, "Blink of An Eye" with great guitar and "Everlasting" with an awesome gospel sound. Again, why this album has been ignored by the public is beyond me...I can only attribute it to the "dumbening up" of America whereby everyone just seems to be attracted by looks and fashion, not talent. But I give "Blink of An Eye" almost my fullest recommendation (I say 'almost' because I would skip over the slow tracks) to true McDonald fans who will realize immediately it is a positive step up from his last 2 CDs.
