Yachts - Box 202

Superb

Just found the "Yachts" album in my vinyl. Great stuff. I'll be playing this to the family over the weekend.

my brothers friend had the album-warped-but some songs were playable...

I bought the Album for 49c in a clearance bin at K-Mart in 1980 and its been the 49c I have ever spent..

this band helped mold me

The band recorded their debut LP in New York with producer Richard Gottehrer.

One reviewer raved that “[the Yachts have] got this cool cheesy (sic) keyboard sound with a nice chunky guitar underneath & in addition to being catchy tunes, their songs have hysterically funny lyrics, like "Box 202", where the guy's girl is killed in an airplane crash so he puts out a classified ad to look for a replacement. The others deal with romance in equally oddball ways, but always rocking and always catchy as hell

why is the beginning so crappy? the beginning sample taken from a national lampoon comedy album.

My Uncle was the Drummer, Bob Bellis, He's still playing, I think im gonna have to start a Facebook page for them. Keep it up YACHT FANS !

One of my favourite bands of the era. I wish someone would re-issue their albums (with the singles/B-sides as additional tracks) on CD.
