Not sure what’s happening with me on this one, but it seems like the more I listen to it, the better Blink Of An Eye gets. Blink Of An Eye put simply is one of Michael Mcdonald’s best CDs to date.
This one literally grabs your attention right from the very first note with I Stand For You and won’t let go until the very last note of the very last song For A Child, which is another great track by the way.
Pop music fans will recognize some of the well known contributors on the project including Dean Parks plus a few other notables as well.
If you’re even mildly into Pop music you’ll enjoy this album. Overall Blink Of An Eye is an a great release. I give it my double thumbs up. You will not be disappointed with one single track.
While this entire album is outstanding the truly standout tunes are track 1 – I Stand For You, track 3 – More To Us Than That, and track 11 – For A Child.
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 8 – What Makes A Man Hold On. Great track!
