Framokay
Simply one of the best soft rock albuns in existence. You can tell it was really McDonald's game here, combining his vocals with a stellar cast of Los Angeles session players (along with my Brazilian counterpart Paulinho da Costa) and the rest of Toto (Mike, Jeff Porcaro and Steve Lukather) thus providing grooves that were very early 80s California. It's a must have!
