Hit Parade: Two-Hit Wonders
I posted a review of the previous episode here as Molanphy is a Friend Of The Pod and wanted to keep them going, but another sub I read (and you all would like) beat me to it, so here it is (you may note me shouting out this sub and the pod in the comments!)

[Yacht or Nyacht] Bell & James, “Renegade”
I can’t believe this album has gone un-Yachtskied! I imagine it’s what Hall & Oates would’ve sounded like if they had gone full yacht.
Other songs on the album include a call to violent revolution and a sexy-sounding warning about nuclear fallout. The album title is certainly of its time, but Jeff Porcaro kills it on the drums.
I think this is the yachtiest track on the album, but I’d love to see other people post their favorites.
