Jimmy GuthrieHOST
And Cool, I don't really know.
Jimmy GuthrieHOST
Oh, Cool, like from Cool and the Gang? Yeah.
Jim BoageHOST
That's my assumption, yes.
Jimmy GuthrieHOST
Okay, and Suggs, I don't know Suggs, so I'm going to say Cool.
Emily BradleyHOST
There's only, like, so many options.
Emily BradleyHOST
So, but one of the kind of types of music I saw referenced was, like, Kool and the Gang.
Emily BradleyHOST
Yes.
Emily BradleyHOST
And pop, like, is it groovy jazz?
LukeGUEST
There was a lot of songs in the 80s, like there's Chain Reaction by Diana Ross and there's In Private by Dusty Springfield that like have are very much 60s songs, but with fake instruments.
LukeGUEST
So that was kind of the North Star for how this album was going to sound.
LukeGUEST
So, yeah, this next song is kind of based on a kind of Donna Summer or Kool and the Gang sort of groove.
LukeGUEST
But it's, you know,
Uncle DandyGUEST
So I'm going to play it.
Uncle DandyGUEST
There's been other groups that I've thrown in because it's just kind of like Kool and the Gang.
Uncle DandyGUEST
Some of their early albums is jazz, in my opinion.
Uncle DandyGUEST
So I stopped thinking about what the audience wants and started thinking more about... hey, what do I want to play? And when I re-listen to my shows, if I hear anything that sounds kind of off, that's when, you know what? Double down, stick to your guns, play the show that you would want to hear.
David JamesHOST
Up next, we're going to stay in this disco house mode and uplift your soul on a Thursday morning in your spirit with Kathy Brown.
David JamesHOST
Before that, we heard music from Kool and the Gang when Adam 10, a relatively new release of Trucko Get Down, baked during the summer of 2026.
David JamesHOST
And what a summer it was.
David JamesHOST
We're going to continue the party through the fall.
Kevin BrownHOST
Queen did an album called Queen.
Kevin BrownHOST
Really? Why would they do that? There's no song called Queen on it, so they're not as cool as Black Sabbath and Kool and the Gang, as we established.
Kevin BrownHOST
But the song we did cover was Son and Daughter.
Kevin BrownHOST
And we both championed it.
BVWHOST
Welcome to the annual end of summer Yacht Rock Special, and I think this has been the hottest summer that I can ever remember.
BVWHOST
And I can't say it any better than Kool & The Gang, it was just too hot.
Boz ScaggsSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Hi, Captain Stubing.
Boz ScaggsSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
[upbeat music] Howard, Gopher, and Doc.
Mark JosephHOST
no i i i really feel like um The other thing that really struck me is I only find out like today that many of these songs had very, very religious reasons for being written.
Mark JosephHOST
For instance, I just learned like, you know, last Tuesday that Kool and the Gang celebration, I forgot, I think it was Robert Bell, whoever wrote it, he wrote it about from the Quran about what heaven will be like.
Barry MorgensteinGUEST
I never heard of that.
Barry MorgensteinGUEST
That's interesting.
