    dude, this reminds me of dr. schmidts office and that damn tooth polishing machine they used to use, small paper cups filled with fluoride and whatnot.

    Best mix name ever.

    it's inspired by magic 106.7's "bedtime magic" with david allen boucher in boston.
    talking in that smooth late night voice, he was always giving away magic 106.7 night shirts and shower caps.

    Oh man ... we were just flipping about that 10cc jam last night. And you start off the mix with it. I'm going to set sail immediately. Many thanks!

    I just called my BBQ partner Sara to inform her about this amazing new influx of AM Gold (I'm also building a new mix as I type this ... and was working on it when I saw Jaymack's post).

    Anyway, she's at the beach and as I was speaking to her, she was staring at a sign that read "New London Yacht Club Cabana Members Only".

    dope mix. i am a huge fan of the 70's soft rock. a little disappointed that i didn't hear "sailing" by christopher cross, "sail on" by the commodores or "come sail away" by styx. you know, given the theme and all....

    there were a couple of other mixes put up in the other soft rock thread, i imagine jaymack was tryin to "flip the script", as it were....

    Hats off.

    Finally - someone who knows their shit. I don't care if it took a series of youtube videos to bring the yachting movement full steam ahead (no pun intended) - now we're getting to thick of things. Private press yacht rock is about to make a big impact. Matthew Larkin Cassell anyone?

    Good fuckin mix maing. Odd but also refreshing to see such a mix minus any Ken Doll, Brother McDonald or Steel Toe Dan in there. Good looks.

    And he has put the tracklist in the "Comment" tag. Awww!!! Saved me the hassle. I appreciate this - God is in the details.

    This would be interesting. And, frankly, I'm surprised there hasn't been a slew of new "retro yacht rock" bands. I'm guessing that Beck will put out a yacht rock record soon enough.

    But, honestly, I think a large part of the appeal of these songs is the sense of nostalgia that they provide. We're constantly playing this stuff while grilling and drinking these days and I find that most of the fun comes from rocking out and singing along. Everyone knows every word and every guitar lick. (By the way, I do a killer "Sad Eyes" falsetto ... that last chorus, " ... turn the other way ...". Yeah.) So I'm not sure that the private press stuff would hit as hard. I'd still like to hear some, though.

    By the way, I've come up with the top retro yacht rock band name: Peter, Paul and Oates.

    Were it not for their whole backwoodsman/Americana steez, I'd say these guys could make a convincing case for being nuevo-yachtrockers.

    I can hear that. And with bands like America being a surefire part of original AM gold, Midlake fits the mold.

    To say I'm looking forward to listening to this on the way home would be a gross understatement - cheers Jaymack.

    PS My karoake foreigner slays all. I've left grown men floored before.

    Good looks on the Paul Young. I have not heard this since the 80s!

    Cue neck bob.

    If I remember correctly, Phoenix's first album has a few tracks that are very nautical.



    Also, Chromeo's "Momma's Boy," off their new one, reminds me of Hall and Oates for some reason.

    loving this mix! i'm on my 4th listen. the paul davis and benny mardone joints are i could listen to this kind of stuff all day. makes for a relaxing work day.

  • Listened to this on Amtrak yesterday morning on my way to the Jack London Square station. Many many memories.

    Thanks. Great selection!

  • djkingottodjkingotto 1,704 Posts

    Truly - this is a 'genre' that's about the hits. Good private rock and SSW is a beautiful thing, but if it was mining strictly this territory its hard to imagine the underground version meeting or exceeding the quality of the songs everybody already knows.
