Yacht Rock: A DOCKumentary Reaction Episode

In this episode, Chris and Matt are joined by yacht rock aficionado Jim Logrando to discuss the new HBO Music Box documentary, Yacht Rock: A DOCKumentary. The trio dives into their favorite moments from the film, which explores the smooth, soulful sound of artists like Michael McDonald, Kenny Loggins, and Christopher Cross, who defined the genre in the late 1970s and early 1980s. They share insights and takeaways, reflecting on how the genre’s polished melodies and heartfelt lyrics became iconic, while also addressing the misconceptions about what truly makes a song “yacht rock.” Tune in for a conversation that’s as smooth as the sound itself!
