Music Box: Yacht Rock: A DOCKumentary
2024| 1h 31m| IMDb 7.2
Directed by Garret Price (HBO's Music Box: Woodstock 99: Peace, Love, and Rage) and executive produced by Bill Simmons (HBO's Andre the Giant), this latest installment of the Music Box anthology series celebrates the breezy subgenre of West Coast soft rock, epitomized by such musical artists as Christopher Cross, Michael McDonald, Kenny Loggins, Steely Dan, and Toto. Retroactively dubbed "Yacht Rock" in 2005 by a parody web series, the easy listening, relaxing sounds of the late 1970s and early 1980s came to be mocked by rock lovers and critics but have since reclaimed a legitimate place in music history. Filled with sounds of the era, incredible archival footage of recording sessions and performances, and humorous self-reflective interviews, Music Box: Yacht Rock: A DOCKumentary celebrates the key players of the scene and the genre they didn't even know they were creating.
Director: Garret Price
