Query: Michael McDonald Is A Mumbler!

I do NOT understand why anyone would want to buy a Michael McDonald album. He claims to sing "blue eyed soul" but this album is without soul. The songs sound horrendous and seriously lack the heart that Benny Benjamin (original Motown drummer) and Jamie Jamerson (orginal Motown bassist)possessed as they have been replaced by sterile, souless drum and bass programming. What's worse is that Michael McDonald ALWAYS sings like he has cotton in his mouth, regardless of what album he records. His words are mumbled and NEVER clearly enunciated. This even goes back to his Doobie Brother days, a terrific rock and roll band he tried to push under the bus by trying to make it a R&B band. He was a square peg in a round hole. No wonder why Tom Johnston left. Michael McDonald does NOT sing, he mumbles and whoever gave him vocal lessons/coaching should be fired and spanked asap.
