|

Alright - you all have got to check out the funniest TV series that has never been on TV. It's called Yacht Rock, and can be found exclusively on channel101.com.
Basic gist of the plot: This series takes you back to the era of "Smooth Music", roughly the time period of rock between 1978 and 1984. Each episode tells the story about how a song was concieved, melding real-world events with some "creative license". For expample, Eps 5 tells the story on how the members of Toto, Michael McDonald, and Kenny Loggins all help Michael Jackson get his "smooth" back during the Thriller album (with help from Vincent Price and a harpoon wielding ghost). I looked it up, and sure enough, some of the members of Toto not only wrote, but produced the single "Human Nature" for the album!
Make sure you watch all 5 episodes in order to get a better flavor, but trust me, it's well worth it, especially if you remember the songs! Some of the highlights:
- The discovery of Christopher Cross
- Alley fight between Hall and Oates, and Michael McDonald and Kenny Loggins
- How Harold Ramis turned Kenny Loggins into a Rocker
- What happend to Mussina of Loggins and Mussina
- How Toto scored with Rosanna Arquette
All classics! All comic gold! All SMOOOOOOTH!!!!
