@MN5 tried to like this song but outside of the bass it sucked. But have enjoyed your recommendation on Joe very much.
There’s other better versions, it was just poignant to me with Chuck trying his best and failing to sound decent
-
@MN5 Yeah everything is relevant because I don’t know who the fuck Chuck is but obviously you have a connection so it makes a difference. Plus since you’re a bass player, I assume, that kind of stuff sticks with you. So no love for Randy Bachman and looking out for number one?

@MN5 Surely the problem there is mainly the volume on Chuck's mic! You can't really hear him.
Gould's bass is ridiculously tight.
Absolutely. Just about blew the speakers in the CX5 when I was listening.
Some really nice subtle grooves from him too, subtle in the way a sledgehammer is !

@MN5 Diamond girl, play for you and a couple others in my youth. Good yacht rock stuff.
Is it yacht rock or folk rock ?
I’d consider yacht rock stuff with smooth synthesisers and saxophones. Michael McDonald, Some Steely Dan, Boz Skaggs, some Toto, Christopher Cross etc.
Perhaps @Tim can clear it up ?

@MN5 That song definitely has some smooth and jazzy elements, but it's not quite there, especially in the vocals and some of the rhythm section. A bit early, like earlier Steely Dan.
By 1980 they were definitely making yacht rock though.
Bit more of a bounce in this one.

BTW, this website collected the scores from the official yacht rock podcast:

@MN5 lol. Admitting liking music in the yacht rock category would be devastating to one’s credibility. @tim save us although I down with whatever.
I think “any ferner” and “credibility” are an uneasy mix at best.

Quite like In This Moment (only heard a song of thiers a few months ago)
