I prefer Days of Wine & Roses, but damn isn't repeat listens to this ..."  [+]  Reply

"Upbeat and poppy, though in a different direction than pre-Michael McDonald Doobies records. I like the older albums better, but there’s still great stuff here—mostly Here to Love You, What a Fool Believes and How Do the Fools Survive. Solid collection of songs."  Reply
