Recorded at Warner Brothers Studios, North Hollywood, California. The Doobie's biggest commercial success coincided with Michael McDonald's emergence as the leader of the band. His brilliant brand of sophisticated, keyboard-driven pop soul, as exemplified by the title track and the huge hit "What a Fool Believes," was instantly identifiable and almost impossible to resist. There are tracks here that look back to the Doobie's earlier days as a biker boogie band, in particular "Don't Stop to Watch the Wheels," and "Steamer Lane Breakdown," a country song reminiscent of the Byrds' "Nashville West." But the sound here is mostly McDonald's - and that's good!!!
The most popular Doobie recording of all time includes two of Michael McDonald's signature tunes "Minute By Minute" and "What a Fool Believes". But why did Kenny Loggins record this first? He did write it with him, maybe Kenny was to give the public a preview of what was to come...
