Yacht On! Best of 70s & 80s Smooth Sailing

I was listening to various stations on the firestick and happened upon a few yacht-themed streams. While I was expecting the usual Christopher Cross and Michael McDonalds, they played a much broader scope of tracks. And those tracks would normally be tagged as soft rock/pop but hey, if it fits, why not! And sensibly, the two genres can be interchangeable. I'm sure the purists stand an argument, but it's all about the music. And with that, I'd thought to make a mix or three of yacht tracks that are not the usual norm. 16 of 'em. My favs? The Ozark Mountain Daredevils' "You Know Like I Know," Atlanta Rhythm Section's "Alien," and Lava's "2.12" - they're all good. Enjoy!

That's What She Said! Vol. 4 (Those Rockin' Poppin' Ladies Are At It Again)

20 tracks (I'd say the majority are rare) of poppin' rockin' ladies, from 1960's Jamie Horton's "Robot Man" to 69's Helen Shapiro's "Take Me for a While." My top 3 - Jean Thomas' "Too Young to Be Yours," Billie Davis' "Hands Off," and Gloria Scott & The Tonettes' "I Taught Him." They're all good. I know I say that a lot, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Enjoy!
