"The Colored Section" by Donnie (Giant Step Records)

"The laughter of a playing child/a kiss of love so tender and mild/ these things are essential/to my well-being..." (from "You Got a Friend") Giant Step's latest protegee Donnie always kills it when he stretches out his arms and sings a song. Be it melancholy, or exuberant, Donnie will crush it--with love.

Coming from the Stevie Wonder/Motown school, Donnie's latest tracks stimulate your heart, mind, body, and body of thoughts. Donny Hathaway and Marvin Gaye are but two of his musical heroes, and soon - very, very soon - we are sure that DONNIE will become yours.

    This is definitely the best album that I have bought in a very long time. I have included a copy of my review of The Colored Section. By the way, how does one become a Blogcritic?
