OK, This shit is fuckin' awesome.
If you're bored today then you're in for a special treat.
What do Kenny Loggins, Christopher Cross, Michael Jackson, Steely Dan, the Doobie Brothers, etc. all have in common?
That's right, they understand the power of smooth music.
Click here for the sordid history and temultuous evolution of Yacht Rock.
Scroll down to the bottom and start with episode one....it is well worth it.
As Oates says:
"FUCK YOU, LOGGINS!!! Hall and I will not stand idly by while you California vagina sailors stab the American airwaves in the balls with your shit music!"
might have to wait until tonight.
you're trapped in a prison of smooth grooves lockingplier.
get your dick out of your heart!
Yeah, I had to watch the first five last night.....no time at work.
"He's trapped in a prison of smooth grooves".
SHIT!!!
hold the line lockingplier
That's what a fool believes, yourlover!!!
tsk, tsk LP
I think the key to a good thread is to pose a question or a topic that is accessible to as many people on the board as possible.
You know, to promote a broader discussion.
Clearly, you've painted yourself into a corner with this one.
Don't be discouraged, you'll do better next time.
There is no discussion to be had.
I do not expect it to be a lengthy thread, full of whimsical discussion (this comment excluded).
I posted it so other people could enjoy the humour, Bruce.
It's a pity you are not able to see this.....I feel sorry for you.
M&N is not a popularity contest for everyone, you know.
i feel your pity
I will watch this. Can't view it at work for some reason.
also check out House of Cosbys. Comedy Gold.
They were taken to court over House Of Cosbys.
Episode 5 is pretty funny.
They call on the spirit of Koko to stop Michael Jackson turning away from smooth music.
"Hard Rock has got me and Eddie (Van Halen) drillin’ more cooch than Black and Decker!"
will watch 1 now
oh shit, i've sen this ages ago!
Oh man.....I'm behind the times.
I have it on fairly good authority that these guys have been offered a DVD release for the series.
The irony is that yacht rockers were much more abrasive, raucous and rockin' than most of today's indie rockers....
Vincent Price: "Smooth music will only survive if McDonald and Loggins can be persuaded to make amends!"

It's mellow, but not smooth. Kind of shitty.
Burt: I also enjoyed the ''hi, you've just caught me chopping up a hobo'' one.
Hollywood Steve actually did write reviews for allmusicguide (though he's not Steven Thomas Erlewine - he's actually Steve Huey).
E.g., Hollywood Steve biography of Seals and Crofts.
Has a few piss funny bits but more shitty bits than usual. Not a classic.
I want a ME.L.T!
I do think they've worn out the Loggins doing movie themes against his will plot line. They haven't worn out the great lines. Loved the literalism of ''cut. foot. loose.''
Rad! Straight to Pod when I get home :)
that line was so lame hillsong!
but yeah didn't they use that riff from danger zone in an earlier ep. already....
Yeah, seemed a bit too self aware, but if they keep going they'll find their stride.
Jason Lee is in it, which is nice.
i liked half of it. particularly bacon and balboa, james ingram (what a fucking legend that sweet dude is), and macdonald and loggins were back to form.
disapointing that the sots were way longer and not as many musical references as a good episode, resulting in the episode seeming to get bogged down/lag quite a lot.
Michael McDonald's on Leno right now....
haha 40 Most Sensational Soft Rock Songs is on VH1 right now..tune in!!
it's a list hosted by dave holmes, the crew from yach rock that youtube show and a bunch of comedians/musicians..
SO AWESOME!
Can't beat Air Supply's Soft Rock infomercials from a year or so back...
''Remember that one? I first boned your mother to that song.''
TWO YEARS???? I AM SO FREAKIN BEHIND!
Wow. This show is fucken golden.
It is. Keep the fire burning, binary.
keep the fire.
