What a fool believes…

YACHT ROCK

J.D. Ryznar and Hunter D. Stair devised the series after noticing similarities among bands such as Steely Dan, Toto, and The Doobie Brothers. In particular, members of those bands often collaborated with each other and with singer-songwriter Kenny Loggins. For example, Loggins and Michael McDonald co-wrote several songs, including Loggins' "This Is It" and The Doobie Brothers' "What a Fool Believes." McDonald himself sang backing vocals for several yacht rock artists, including Steely Dan and Christopher Cross.

Instead of choking on its vomit in a Paris bathtub or overdosing on a Hollywood sidewalk, Yacht Rock simply told one last story about Steely Dan, then hoisted its sails and drifted away while a satisfied crowd waved goodbye from the docks, exactly one incredible year after its historical debut.
