    The impressive thing in these bands is they all play an instrument, all sing, write their own music and these guys wrote songs for other artists. Multitalented, versatility. No frontman who does all the singing, so impressive, the 70’s were no joke.

    I'll give you cats another perspective for the recipe, the consistency of the 70s and 80s soft rock or yacht rock as it became to be known later. Most of these cats in these bands were children of the 50s and 60s and they were in awe of and transfixed by the music of Black American R&B, Soul and Motown artists. What emerged was the sound of AM Radio and the moniker given to all of these bands like Player, Hall &Oats and the like was Blue Eyed Soul! A bunch of white boys, some from the states and some from across the pond that were trying their hardest to be the cats they grew up listening to and either by choice or subconsciously they studied that music and that's what came out when these cats performed.

    The Bass Player is Ronn Moss. I was more familiar with him playing Ridge Forrester on Bold & The Beautiful (87-2012) before knowing he was in this band. LOL

    The video is everything. Three incredibly hot guys singing and playing R&B. That’s what a lot of “ yacht or soft” rock is. R&B haters hate it. Do you guys consider Steely Dan to be soft rock ? I think they’re the best and most complex group of all time. There’s lots of great music everywhere.

    Sunken living rooms were big back in the day. ... In a similar vein, you might like the song "Kiss You All Over" by Exile from 1978. I don't think it's soft rock, but it is definitely pop rock. Like "Baby Come Back," it also reached No. 1 in the U.S.

    You're right not to care. It IS so good.
    All genres have a formula of sorts. This song has ALL the right elements in perfect proportion. And then it sprinkles some magic dust.
    You got it right when you said that it's equally good all the way through. It grabs you from the first solo beat of the drum, then the layers fill it out, that unique baseline, the amazing vocals, harmonies. Surprising bridge. At no point do you ever disengage. Those pauses leave you anticipating. And then the end surprises you, fading away with you still willing to hear more from that guitar.
    It's magic. Don't fight the feeling!

    The guy with the scarf is Ronn Moss and he was always in the scarfs. He went on to be on Bold and the beautiful as Ridge Forester and played that role for 20 something years. I think almost 30 years in fact. But in the later part of the show, he wore a lot of scarves and still does to this day.
