While the music has existed for years, popular usage of the term yacht rock is relatively new, coming into circulation through the online comedy series of the same name.

The music

In the musical sense, yacht rock refers to the highly polished brand of soft rock that emanated from Southern California during the late '70s and early '80s. In part, the term relates to the stereotype of the yuppie yacht owner, enjoying champagne and smooth music while out for a sail. Additionally, since sailing was a popular leisure activity in Southern California, many "yacht rockers" made nautical references in their lyrics and album artwork, particularly the anthemic track " Sailing" by Christopher Cross. To meet Wikipedias quality standards, this article may require cleanup. ...

Sailing is a song performed by Christopher Cross, featured in his 1979 self-titled debut album, also featuring the songs Ride Like the Wind (featuring backing vocals by Michael McDonald) and Never Be the Same. ...

The foundation of the yacht rock scene was a local pool of versatile session musicians who frequently played on each other's records. This professionalism often gave yacht rock recordings a high level of sophistication in musical areas such as composition, arrangement, and instrumental skill. Session musicians are musicians available for hire, as opposed to musicians who are either permanent members of a musical outfit or who have acquired fame in their own right. ... Musical composition is: an original piece of music the structure of a musical piece the process of creating a new piece of music // A musical composition A piece of music exists in the form of a written composition in musical notation or as a single acoustic event (a live performance... In music, an arrangement loosely describes rewriting a piece of pre-existing music for a specific set of instruments or voices, often in harmony or with additional original material. ...

The most popular yacht rock artists enjoyed massive commercial success. During its peak years, yacht rock dominated the Grammy Awards, with Christopher Cross and Toto sweeping the major awards in 1981 and 1983 respectively, feats consistently derided by Grammy prognosticators. ^[1] However, yacht rock was not a hit with most rock critics, who dismissed it as generic and "middle-of-the-road", favoring such acts as The Clash and Elvis Costello instead.^[2] (See Rockism.) Grammy Award The Grammy Awards (originally called the Gramophone Awards), presented by the Recording Academy (an association of Americans professionally involved in the recorded music industry) for outstanding achievements in the recording industry, is one of four major music awards shows held annually in the United States (the Billboard Music...

Rockism is an ideology of popular music criticism, originating in the British music press in the late 1970s or early 1980s. ...

In developing the show Yacht Rock, creator J.D. Ryznar commented that the term was intended to describe the "more elite studio artists" of the period, such as Michael McDonald and Kenny Loggins.^[3] David Lyons, who co-produced the show and played Koko Goldstein, noted that a friend of his devised the term "marina rock" in college to describe a more "working-class" group of artists that didn't achieve the same high profile, such as Seals and Crofts, Rupert Holmes, and Looking Glass.^[4] However, despite the show's intentions, music journalists have begun using the term yacht rock to describe all of the similar-sounding music of the period, including bands such as Ambrosia, 10cc, and Player.^[5] David Lyons (born 15 June 1980 in Orange, NSW) plays number eight for the Australian national rugby union team. ...

While Ryznar and the show popularized the term yacht rock, it had existed previously. Its earliest-known Internet appearance came in a February 1994 Usenet posting, where a user explained that he had heard the term used to describe the music of Jimmy Buffett.^[6] Usenet is a distributed Internet discussion system that evolved from a general purpose UUCP network of the same name. ...

The show

Title screen of the first episode of Yacht Rock.

Ryznar devised the series after noticing several similarities between 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. Image File history File linksMetadata Yachtrockep1. ...

Christopher Cross (born Christopher Geppert on May 3, 1951 in San Antonio, Texas) is an American singer and songwriter. ...

In a forum post on Channel 101's website, Ryznar noted that the show originated via his own fascination with the music of the period:

"Getting into Steely Dan really started this for me. As did the ability to buy dollar records at Amoeba and put them on tapes for my car. Kenny Loggins has made his way into all the pilots I've been involved with except [one]."^[7]

As Ryznar told Reuters contributor Andy Sullivan, "I'm making fun of the songwriting process, but the music is generally treated pretty lovingly."^[8] Amoeba Music in San Francisco The inside of the San Francisco store Amoeba Music is an independent music chain in Berkeley, San Francisco, and Hollywood, California. ... This article or section may contain original research or unverified claims. ... Reuters Group plc (LSE: RTR and NASDAQ: RTRSY); pron. ...

The show took the real-life aspects of the music and built exaggerated storylines around them. For example, Steve Porcaro of Toto co-wrote "Human Nature" for Michael Jackson (with members of Toto performing on the recording), Christopher Cross' original name really was Christopher Geppert, and Toto's "Rosanna" really was written for Rosanna Arquette. However, many elements were creations of the show, such as Hall & Oates manager "Gino Balzarelli", a character inspired by the Hall & Oates song "Gino (the Manager)" (which was, in reality, based on their then-manager Tommy Mottola). Steve Porcaro is a keyboardist and composer who was an original member of the rock/pop band, Toto. ...

Hall & Oates is the popular music duo made up of Daryl Hall and John Oates. ... Thomas Daniel Tommy Mottola, Jr. ...

At times, the show plays with the popular "Behind The Music" take on the real-life events depicted on screen, for example by presenting a version of Hall & Oates where John Oates, a clear junior partner given his paucity of lead vocals or songwriting credits, rules over partner Daryl Hall in quasi-abusive fashion. Michael Jackson is depicted as a hard-rock enthusiast who believes his partnership with guitarist Eddie Van Halen will lead to an endless parade of female sexual conquests. Jeff "Skunk" Baxter, the Doobie Brothers' lead guitarist, is often seen pressuring central figure Michael McDonald to write the Doobies another hit; the real Baxter did bring McDonald into the band but left himself on the heels of its greatest commercial success because of his displeasure with the Doobies' focus on hit-making. The Eagles and Steely Dan really did insert lyrical references to each other in their music, as depicted in the show, but these were actually friendly in nature, not part of a longtime grudge involving baseball bats and lunch-money shakedowns.-1...

The series was written, directed, and produced by Ryznar, co-produced by David Lyons, and edited by Lane Farnham.

Yacht Rock debuted at Channel 101's June 2005 screening. It placed in the top five at subsequent screenings until the June 2006 screening of its tenth episode, where it placed seventh and was cancelled. However, in subsequent posts on Channel 101's forum, Ryznar and Lyons left open the possibility that the show might continue in some form outside of Channel 101.
