Review

From the reggae-ish opener "I Stand for You" to the gorgeous cover of "Hey Girl" to the gospel-tinged "Everlasting," Michael McDonald's Blink of an Eye is at moments contemplative and, at others, just plain funky. McDonald's smoky, soulful vocals shine throughout. A nice album by the godfather of blue-eyed soul. ~ Tim Griggs, All Music Guide
