    This is a great channel. I love this band. Great reaction for real. If I may suggest some more from them: "How Much I Feel," "Your The Only Woman", "Holdin On To Yesterday", "Nice Nice Very Nice", "Life Beyond LA". I encourage you to watch some live footage, they all sing and their live sound is still studio quality. Thank you.

  • @stevegirard-voiceaudiopodcasts

    Back info: Ambrosia was initially a prog rock group with great vocals. Their first album was produced by Freddie Piro - who told them to give up smoking and go run for a month before recording their vocals. The mixing was done by the great Alan Parsons. It produced IMO their best song: Holdin’ on to Yesterday… which is the only song ever to feature a solo that pairs a beautiful, plaintive guitar with a great violin!!
    You won’t regret checking this out!
    I first heard it in 1977, and it’s remained one of my fave songs all these years! Best to you all!

    Great choice Ambrosia. Check out "You're the Only Woman" and "I Just Can't Let Go" which has Ambrosia's David Pack singing lead with Michael MacDonald and James Ingram singing backup. The term "yacht rock" was kind if a negative term for the popular soft rock genre. Ambrosia was a rock band with R&B influenced style in some of their songs like Hall & Oates who before they were a duo sang some backup gigs with Philly soul groups like Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes and other TSOP artists.

    Ambrosia is a terrific band, and goes way beyond "yacht rock" and sweet ballads. In their first two albums, they were bouncing between R&B/Blue-Eyed Soul, progressive rock, and a few more pop-oriented songs -- as if they hadn't decided what kind of band they wanted to be. Personally I prefer their proggier and more soul-infused material from the 1970's to their 80's balladry. If you'd like to hear their other, rockier side -- check any of these songs: Drink of Water, Mama Frog, World Leave Me Alone, Holdin' On to Yesterday, Time Waits for No One, and Life Beyond L.A. I love the dynamic of you three and the great variance in genres you're checking out. Genre-Fluid!!

    I had to laugh and I'm in total agreement with Fenom202's description of what "Yacht rock" is. OlliWoodda just nailed it, when describing the best way to enjoy listening to this song. This is great to play whenever you're wanting something soft and enjoyable playing in the background, it sets the "mood" for a party or most any type of get-together, not overpowering vocals or power driving instrumentals. (which I have no problem with, I love heavy medal) however, there's certain types of music that's just suitable for specific events. (IMHO) Hey CoreyRoy_ you have good taste in music😊 this is one my favorite bands too. I love David Pack's vocals his range is fantastic, one of the best blue-eyed soul bands from the 70's. Here's a live performance of another one of their hit songs, in case you're interested "Ambrosia - Holdin' On To Yesterday" (by the Channel: AMBROSIABAND). And here's another band to check out that is similar in style in case you're interested in listening to more of this beautiful genre of music. "Cool Change - Little River Band" (by the channel: Earthstudy) Really fun reactions fellas thanx for sharing

    This is also ambrosia: Southern Ambrosia is a fruit salad that features a combination of fruits mixed with whipped cream or marshmallows or both. Different recipes may also call for sour cream, pecans, and other ingredients, such as cherries. The most common fruits found in ambrosia are oranges, pineapple, and shredded coconut.
    Southern Ambrosia is served chilled and as a side or dessert.

    If anyone is wondering which of the three guys in the photo wrote this song it was the first guy with the short black hair. His name is David Pack. He also created the group and is the singer heard on this song. This song reached number three on the US Billboard charts and number one on the Radio and Records chart. To this day most people old enough to know this song still remember this song as one of the biggest soft rock songs of alltime. Most music back then was really good. For Real.

      @@thisisitreactions There was a super successful Rock/Pop band which didn't fit into any one genre back in the '70s-'80s called, *The Electric Light Orchestra (aka ELO).* They had more Top 40 Hits in the US and UK combined than ANY OTHER BAND IN THE WORLD during their 15-year career ('72-'86). This would a be a new band for your channel and for a great song to get you started, I suggest the one that hooked me on the band, ELO's 1975 hit, *"Evil Woman".* (Use a link with the album version---the album has an electric chair on the cover.)
