The first Motown album revived former
Doobie Michael McDonald's career, so why mess with success? Motown
Two is another collection of soul chestnuts sung in McDonald's
distinctive husky voice. The selections here may seem apparently
obvious such as "What's Goin On," "Reach Out,"
"I'll Be There," "Second that Emotion," "I
Was Made to Love Her," etc. and the arrangements and production
may be at times smooth and glossy (thin), but it's McDonald who
keeps it all the more real and soulful through his singing. Those
who loved the first Motown won't be disappointed.
