Description
Yacht rock was one of the most commercially successful genres to emerge from the '70s and yet has managed to evade concise definition since its inception. For many listeners, it boils down to a feeling or mood that cannot be found in other kinds of music: Simply put, you know it when you hear it.
Some agreed-upon elements are crucial to yacht rock. One is its fluidity, with more emphasis on a catchy, easy-feeling melody than on beat or rhythm. Another is a generally lighthearted attitude in the lyrics.

“Love Strain” is sick, blissfully bummed out soft rock.
MusicThatShapes Oct 20, 2022
Yacht Rock album relying on a strong bluesy guitar, mellow vocals and a very oceanic mood of the whole recording.
Privately pressed in late 70s, Jerry Thomas a fan of Blues Rock created a very nice Soft Rock/AOR album with a strong "blues band". You feel the bluesy touch in the background, making it quite a unique Yacht Rock album.
The cover sets the mood genially. Lot's of love songs, breezy mood, soft vibe and you feel like on a first vacation with your loved one walking on the seashore.
Definitely don't need to be a blues fan at all to enjoy it.
" ‘Ocean Song’ by Jerry Thomas is the epitome of the private press treasure that us record collectors all seek. "
"Jerry and his band managed to create an album that is beautiful and cohesive as a whole, yet unique within each track as they seamlessly blend between styles of rock, folk, blues and country. The lyrics that Jerry present are themes of love, friendship and nature. They bestow a tenderness to each song that we can all relate to."
"Ocean Song’ is an album that will take you on a journey or better yet serve as a companion for your own journey . The "Ocean Song" album, that was lost in time but, now found resonates with the listener as if no time was lost at all. A true treasure. "
