Yacht Rock

Maybe should have posted in the Lounge, but this is boat related!

Anyone watched "I Can Go For That: The Smooth World of Yacht Rock"?

Contains very strong language.
Katie Puckrik explores the 1970s American music phenomenon of Yacht Rock, a halcyon period of Los Angeles studio craft that married R&B with themes of longing, aspiration and melancholy.

I haven't seen it yet, but I am a big fan of the old MTV series, "Yacht Rock". Bad language warning.

Great idea, dreadful execution. Cobbled together clips, the story and thesis do not flow.
Some of the clips of the presenter are irrelevant.

Lot of OGWT clips. BBC mining the archives?

Gives you another genre for the iPod.

And why it took two episodes. Opening of part 2 seems to re run of part 1 with nothing added.
