I know this is technically a show, but it’s about music, so I posted it here. If you’re interested in a very funny and fake rivalry between musical artists of the 70’s and early 80’s, this is for you. Hall & Oates are the villains, and a new decade threatens to destroy “smooth music”. At least the first few episodes are worth a watch.

    This looks really promising. I’m listening a ton of music, from experimental electronica to techno to jazz to metal. But I always have a soft spot in my heart for classic yacht rock. Steely Dan, Fleetwood Mac, Toto et.al. The excess and roughness of their lives and the smooth smooth music was such a weird combination of the 70’s.

    I never realized it was a show. I thought it was just a descriptor of the type of music I disovered in my dad’s CD collection when i was a kid
