Popis knihy

It's amazing that this style came to be. Can you imagine being a struggling musician back then? It must take an incredible amount of restraint to play that gently. ACTOR/COMEDIAN FRED ARMISEN You had to be able to play, you had to be able to sing, you had to learn your craft. You didn't get signed to a record company unless you were actually good at what you did. JOHN OATES (HALL & OATES) Just what is 'yacht rock,' you ask? Perhaps the easiest description is: music that would not sound out of place being played while carousing aboard a yacht back in the good old days. But these songs were also some of the top pop gems of the 70s and 80s. And while some associate yacht rock's biggest songs with one-hit wonder artists, several of rock's most renowned artists fall under this category, too-including Fleetwood Mac, the Eagles, Steely Dan, Hall & Oates, The Doobie Brothers, Toto, and more. By the early twentyfirst century, yacht rock seemed to have become extinct ... until a comedic video series, simply titled Yacht Rock, went viral and introduced captain's hats and blazers to a whole new generation - as well as the emergence of a popular cover band, the Yacht Rock Revue, and of course, Jimmy Fallon's on-air admiration of all things yacht rock. Now, yacht rock is one of the most celebrated 'yesteryear' styles of pop music, and has resonated with a new generation of musicians (including the Fred Armisen/Bill Hader-led Blue Jean Committee and soul/funk/electronica crossover act Thundercat). But despite all the hoopla, there has never been a book that told the entire story of the genre. Until now. Featuring interviews with many of the heavy hitters of the genre, including John Oates, Kenny Loggins, and Don Felder, The Yacht Rock Book leaves no sail unturned. This is the definitive story of the yacht rock's creation, rise, chart-smashing success, fall, and stunning rebirth.
