Michael McDonald's 'I Keep Forgettin' (Every Time You're Near)' is a certified classic but I love his appearance on the Soul Train in 1982 with this amazing all-star band because it features:
- Jeff Porcaro [of Toto] on drums 🥁
- John McFee [of The Doobie Brothers] on guitar 🎸
- [Michael Jackson's musical director and session musician extraordinaire] Greg Phillinganes on the clavinet 🎹
- Louis "Thunder Thumbs" Johnson [of the Brothers Johnson] laying down the iconic bass line 🎸🔥
- [Michael McDonald's two sisters] Maureen McDonald and Kathy Walker with the background vocals 🎤🎤
The only album musician missing from this Soul Train appearance was legendary guitarist Steve Lukather [of Toto]. Lukather was also a prominent contributor to Michael Jackson's Thriller.
