That's my video set for 2330 tonight: I Can Go For That: The Smooth World Of Yacht Rock.

bbc.co.uk

An introductory clip: bbc.co.uk

Before that, 2.5 hours of, and about, easy listening. Although I do sometimes pop into Soma FM's Illinois St Lounge somafm.com I may pass on that for the moment.

Don Henley - New York Minute

Madonna - Like a Prayer

Is it just me, or is that, erm, figure identical?

I think so, but there are much earlier precedents I'm sure.

Incidentally, the Henley song is turgid as hell.

I love it purely for the connection to The West Wing.

It also reminds me of Fire and Rain by James Taylor, but that I think is less clear.

Sorry, another connection that might be totally in my head - and which I find impossible to google without getting completely odd results.

Is the riff at the start of Going for Gold by Shed Seven actually a copy of Jessica by the Allman Brothers Band?

[Shed Seven are one of those bands that have aged better than expected]
