YACHT ROCK SUNDAY!!! STRIKES BACK EDITION



I've been super busy with things like moving and school so blogging about smooth music from the mid 70's to the early 80's has become something I have very little time for.


First order of business, tonight is the final Yacht Rock Sunday at Barbarella. Which means no longer will you get the full awesomeness of smooth music coupled with videos of sail boats and waterfalls, so you should come out.


Now to the nitty gritty... Player's Baby Come Back has been something I've wanted to post but because of the swiffer ads haven't really felt the need to. Well today I'm doing it. Everything about this song is awesome... It's got an almost porn groove intro, but at the last minute saves itself and turns into something very melodic and smooth.


And because it just wouldn't be right to not post a song with the voice of Yacht Rock after a long hiatus I give you the Doobie Brother's underrated classic Echos Of Love. Michale McDonald is all I should really have to say. He's pretty much the most important person in Yacht Rock... He's pretty much did backing vocals on every album in the 70's.
