An old favorite..........2006-12-08

I am now puzzled, having read that the band is from Alabama. Being a Baltimorean, when I was growing up, my friends and I assumed that the band was from Maryland.

The song is clearly about a trip from Baltimore to Ocean City, Maryland with further references to crossing the Chesapeake Bay Bridge, the traditional route from "Western Shore" natives seeking the beaches of Ocean City, etc via US 50. Starbuck's website makes no mention of the motivation of the lyrics... :(

Are the musicians getting paid?.......2005-11-27

My name is Jon Cobb and I'm the nephew of James Cobb the Bass player on most of these Albums. My uncle and everyone but Bruce Blackman haven't seen a dime from the sale of their music on Amazon. Do not make Amazon richer by cheating the other musicians out of their hard work. I'm a musician too and during these tough times for all musicians we must look a little closer into who we're supporting.

Great, from one of the most influential bands ever.......2005-03-06

Starbuck was hugely influential on the entire 1970's and post 70's music scene. Their influence can be felt until today. I would even conjecture that they were greater than the Beatles.

Pop-Funk From '76.......2003-11-25

This was quirky, feel good funky pop fun for the mid 70's.Yet, as quirky as Starbuck sounded to some it was very hip for the time and very distinct despite the use of 70's disco-like synthesizers (this group was anything but disco). The best track will always be Moonlight Feels Right. What other band of the 70's could groove to a little bit of white soul funk using the calypso sounding marimba ? Each track is highly memorable and full of melody.Lead singer Bruce Blackman had a vocal signature style very unique in a cool and befitting 70's sorta way... Not a single downer or trash track on here. This is a great cd to travel back in time to 1976 !

A 70s Pop Classic.......2002-02-06

One of my favorite LPs from the '70s - what a joy it is to see this getting the digital treatment. If you like the sound of the title track you'll love this CD. Here we get all of 1976's "Moonlight Feels Right" LP plus five bonus tracks culled from the 1977 follow up "Rock and Roll Rocket" including Starbuck's second hit "Everybody Be Dancin'".

Starbuck's sound is immediately recognizable due to Blackman's unique voice, the emphasis on synths, and Bo Wagner's marimba and vibes. Honestly how many pop/rock groups have you ever known to work vibes into their act? And it works.

At times funky, at times... well, quirky, this release is sure to please 70s music nuts. One of those guilty pleasures to be sure.
