yacht thot @yacht@linernotes.club

hey friends, this my account for posting the 70s and 80s records (and sometimes some other stuff) that come by my turntable and spotify.

you might know me from my charity playlists at #TenForTen2020 and for my much-publicized devotion to #yachtrock and other smooth music.

discogs in the profile to track the out-of-print, not-streaming stuff I hunt down; spotify for So. Many. Playlists.

i'm a dad and i like dad music.

WHAT YEAR IS IT

it's kunkel time 😎

#nowplaying

ok!!! i am going to play more records this week!!!! it's rainy!!!!!

most people know "steal away," probably the most shameless "what a fool believes" ripoff ever to crack the top 10, but all of robbie dupree's 1980 self-titled debut is extremely yachty.

michael boddicker provides synths, bill labounty backing vocals. excellent rainy morning #yachtrock #nowplaying

the drums on this sound almost ludicrously beefy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dI6HaKM3cE8

Hi I swear I'm gonna post more here I just haven't had the time to spin clean the batch of records yet. in the meantime i'm listening to the 1980 peabo bryson album "Paradise" which has an extremely boss version of "minute by minute" on it #yachtrock

imagining the outtakes if this is the photo they chose

stating for the record that none of these artists ever recorded a #yachtrock song:

the eagles
fleetwood mac
jimmy buffett
the beach boys

oops, definitely need to run this batch of LPs through the ol' spinclean

hell yeah

keep the fire, from 1979, is a little country-tinged; kenny pretty much always stayed firmly on the rock side of yacht rock.

three tracks are certified yacht, including the indelible "this is it"; the opening track "love has come of age" (one of my favorites) just missed the boat at a 47.25 on the yachstki scale.

#nowplaying #yachtrock

records arrive today!!!

why does this album title sound so threatening

the official #yachtrock spotify playlist by jd ryznar (in which every song has been rated over 50 on the Yachtski scale, see yachtornyacht.com) was updated last week for the first time in a year and now has a whopping 411 songs on it!

28 hours of yacht rock
