Red Roses For A Blue Lady, "if they do the trick", Dean Martin. This prompt introduced me to this song. I like #DeanMartin, I didn't know the song before!

Oh yes I think I've seen him in a clip on The Voice Australia. He is one of my top 3 Artists as I am a late discoverer. I knew of Hazard, Right Here Waiting, & Endless Summer Nights in the '90s but that's all. I went back to Endless Summer Nights on YT in 2021, listened to more songs & hooked since!

The video to this song is certainly strange, and apt for Halloween I think 🎃👻🕸️🦇🕯️!

I did Michael McDonald for ArtistFave15 🎶🤩 this month, as a solo artist but I did include duets. I plan to do a separate Doobie Brothers countdown both from the years Michael joined them and the years he didn't.

What I liked about that link was it said official audio or whatever and yet Elkie was singing live, as it was different to the record, on TOTP in an era where I thought most of them mimed 🤩🎶👍.

15>1, here is my no. 1. I had never heard this song before I got #MichaelMcDonald Ultimate Collection. So I consider it a hidden gem, I've read he sings it with #WendyMoten. No Love To Be Found ❤️❤️🎶.

I'm happy to share but not sure of a good way as I'm not on Spotify. Maybe as text or a .jpg but then you'd have to make the playlist yourself 🤔?

15>1, no. 3.
No top 15 for Michael McDonald would be complete without including What A Fool Believes - one of my all time favourites. But I will do a Fave15 for the Doobie Brothers later, so this is a live version with Kenny Loggins, co-writer.
