Glenn Frey and Yacht Rock

I heard a song by Glenn Frey while I was at the laundromat today and two things occurred to me: 1. The song that was playing (The One You Love) is a great song and 2. Glenn Frey is totally underrated. He doesn't get the credit he deserves for being a great singer on his solo work. Sure, we all know him from the Eagles, but he put out some wonderful songs on his own, too.

There was an article in the Wall Street Journal recently about "yacht rock." Let me say now I am a huge fan of so-called yacht rock. Ambrosia, Player, and other assorted easy-listening music from the 70s and 80s is very soothing to me and I grew up listening to this stuff.
