Young Gun Silver Fox - Kingston Boogie

Taken from the album AM Waves.
Kingston Boogie
There’s a bar on a Kingston street called Lenny’s
where we used to go
dance till tomorrow through the bottom of a bottle,
sweet moonshine flowed
with a full moon riding high, diamonds on the ocean tide
the lights of our youth burning away
Stick another quarter in the jukebox and let’s
sway to the skank of a Kingston Boogie
Where lovers rock beneath the crystal waves
Stick another quarter in the jukebox and let’s
sway to the sound of a Kingston Boogie
Some say Lenny was a felon on the run
Some say he was a singer in a band
but I never cared what rumours spread
cos you gotta understand
when he poured that sweet sweet wine
we were golden for the night
and every day
was a time to celebrate
Stick another quarter in the jukebox and let’s
sway to the skank of a Kingston Boogie
Where lovers rock beneath the crystal waves
Stick another quarter in the jukebox and let’s
sway to the sound of a Kingston Boogie
Kingston Boogie
Kingston Boogie
with a full moon riding high, diamonds on the ocean tide
every day is a day to celebrate

When people tell me that there is no good music these days, I point them in the direction of these guys, plus Silvertwin, Lonely Robot, Riverside. Lickerish Quartet, The Sonic Executive Sessions, The Red Button, Nell Bryden, and more!

[@gotterdan6047]

could not believe this is from 2018, thought this was some early 80s yacht rock i had never heard before.

[@calinacosta341]

Eu também não sabia e olha que eu escuto música direto desde criança o rádio vivia ligado direto só música boa dos anos 70,80 ,90 amo realmente não sabia destes maravilhosos young Gun Silver Fox amooo Rolling back

[@debfan74]

I have never heard of these guys, but I may have discovered a new love of their music...these guys are TRUE TALENT

[@calinacosta341]

E verdade concordo

[@TheQNSzzz]

💖 After losing my partner nearly 2 years ago the discovery of YGSF has brought a rainbow to my ears and put a sparkle back in my heart.

É verdade concordo

[@carinalundstrom9870]

OMG.... heard this yesterday! ..Can not breathe....Im sooo in love!!! Never heard of this group! ( I`m from Sweden)

[@jml-rj5re]

Sounds like a fusion of Ambrosia, Prefab Sprout and Steely Dan.

[@vaughnmiller4371]

Well said. Believe it or not that was my first thought steely Dan and ambrosia. Good ear mate.

[@mrkssk8]

Reminds me on Steely Dan. Everything seems to have a purpose here, really great production.

[@theyachtrockshow1904]

Oh yeah.. we're gonna feature them soon.. Tune in The Yacht Rock Show podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-yacht-rock-show-with-eddie-ganz/id1520843815

[@mishimishmash]

First thing I thought when I heard this: "Who are these Steely Dan wannabees?":)

[@kitaswifey]

Yass! Reminds you of Peg, Babylon Sisters, and a little bit of Hey Nineteen. I thought the same thing

[@mytriton54]

Sound like something Steely Dan would sing about, too. Even the title sounds like a Steely Dan title. 😄😄 I love it!!!

[@furiousstyles08]

@@kitaswifey I'm getting "Time Out of Mind"

[@JohnPenfold1]

Beautiful, smooth, and classy, with great harmonies. A rare, but much-cherished style of production harking back to a time when the texture of a song mattered. Well done fellas.

The 1st song I heard from YGSF! Shout out to Erica Lee's "Yacht Rock" podcast for introducing me, loved it ever since. AM Waves is my fav album. Props to You guys!!

[@ryanpalmer4991]

This song gives me a sliver of hope for future music, this sounds so similar to 70s yacht rock. I wish more modern artists would make music like this

Andy Platts (YGSF, Mamas Gun) is a damn genius. Masterful songwriting.

[@handpulled]

The best song Maurice White never wrote. Love it ❤️❤️

[@MattHayesVinyl]

Another great track from AM Waves. This one has more of a disco vibe... well, it does have the word "boogie" in the title!

[@theyachtrockshow1904]

Yea its Slammin! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-yacht-rock-show-with-eddie-ganz/id1520843815

[@davidhuggan6315]

I love this song so much! Great story. I can imagine myself at that bar.

[@kermitefrog64]

Great music. They need this played all over the country.

[@yladoma]

I work as a bartender in a live-music club mainly meant for jazz gigs, but also funkateer grooves & I usually conclude a band is really good when their concert either truly influence my life afterwards or if their live-show somehow has an impact on my daily routine. In this specific case, I had a song that I kept in mind several days not knowing where it was from, except that it was Young Gun Silver Fox' Kingston Boogie from their last show in my town. Well done, it has become a cult anthem ! Keep it real

[@Lime2014]

Why does this absolute treasure only have 617 likes? I don't get it. I assume there must be an awesome video for it to be found and that people are putting their likes there instead. Or something.

[@everharddorgelo1813]

The ending of this song reminds me of Donna Summer's "Hot Stuff"/"Bad Girls" transition.

I've been to bars like this in places like Thailand, Australia and Greece. This song takes me back to those times.

A bop

Reminds me of Jamaraqui

[@SongmanKK]

The verse sounds exactly like.Ace "How Long Has This Been Going On".

[@PrimaveraGroove]

♥

[@milkgrapes6420]

This sounds a lot like a mesh of Steely Dan Gaucho sounds and How Long by Ace

[@zsomalino]

@ 0:20 clearly hearing the inspiration from Sugardaddy's How Long

[@Kjfitzdude1]

Sugardaddy, it's an Ace song originally.

[@davidhuggan6315]

Are you a fan of the original by Ace?
