Tom and John steer the helm across the pond to discover the connections and correlatives (yes, that’s a word) between the yacht-rocky west coast sound with the emergence of “sophistipop” shortly after the yacht rock heyday. What were the tie-ins. Are there comparisons to be made? Were there influences, or just coincidences. And, of course, what is there to discuss regarding personnel? More than you might think...
Is there such thing as “Sophisti-Yacht?” You be the judge.
Plus, Tom’s Sophstipop playlist, if you’re into that sorta thing.
