Two in the top five by Boz Scaggs, both fave's of mine. Eye In The Sky by Alan Parsons seems a slightly amusing one considering the title.
Quite a few on the list I don't know.
Green Man
When it comes to Yauct Rock.
I would put Bread, Gary (Dreamweaver) Wright, Eric Carmen, Chicago, Orleans, some America, Jimmy Buffett (of course), Looking Glass, early Kenny Loggins, Steely Dan, Atlanta Rhythm Section, Gap Band, Ace, Air Supply, Toto, AWB, Starbuck and Robbie Dupree ( I am not sure what success he had on this side of the Atlantic)

When you wrote about your dislike of disco I instantly thought of that disco sucks protest, about 1980 wasn't it, so it doesn't surprise me that you've left the link to that as I was almost going to mention that last time myself. When I think of rap music I have often thought back to the disco sucks protest and wondered why we haven't had a rap sucks equivalent yet.
To be fair I'm not sure people listen to disco tracks for the lyrics.
Could you give me a good example of something you consider to be "yacht rock". I know it's not Marti Webb's Always There, the vocal track she did to the theme from Howard's Way - I used to love that show. My late father had his own boat, self made.
