Waht’s Nacht Rock, and what’s Yacht Rock

When I was nine years old, I had my first “paying” job in the newspaper business.

I was paid 50 cents to help my parents deliver the Atl anta Constitution on the weekends. Little did I know then that this experience of del ivering newspapers very, very early in the morning would teach me perhaps the most important thing in my adult life: What constitutes “Yacht Rock.”

See, during those days in the late ‘70s, our car radio was always tuned in to the station that played the Top 40 hits – songs that now anchor “Yacht Rock.”
