loving- if i am only my thoughts

Well-crafted soft yacht rock.

Ant, I think you’d like this one.

Yacht Rock isn't that well defined and I'm no expert but I really wouldn't call this album that.

I noticed pitchfork called it country/folk and I didn’t agree. Google calls is alternative/indie. I thought I was making a fair distinction when I called “soft” yacht rock. What wound you call it? Also seems like one you might like. Got an opinion?

I'd probably call it Neo-Psychedelia.
I thought it was not bad but ultimately not engaging enough.
I know it is supposed to have this lazy and a bit bored vibe and I can generally dig stuff like that but I prefer music of this kind to be a bit groovier.

They've definitely got that 1970 through '73 soft rock sound down pat.

What are the most consistent, grooviest and least cheesy yacht rock albums out there?

Fair enough. I have a feeling these songs are growers though. I know there’s plenty to choose from and time is precious but ... hey I forget, did you ever get into that band Drugdealer?

Preciate your comment too, Ant.

Once again I found them to be not bad but had similar issues as previously stated.
