“Born at Sea. Raised on Radio.”

$upporter Jonathan returns to Out of the Main to walk John and Tom through the history, music and talent that was The Manhattan Transfer. Are they a Buried Treasure of the yacht rock era? With roots in 1930s jazz and influence that continues to this day, let’s pay tribute to one of the truly under-appreciated artists of our time. And if you’re like Tom, and you never quite “got it,” consider this your reason to reconsider.

Who are some artists that did an “about face” — whether over time or overnight, a band or solo artist who so dramatically changed their sound that the two versions of themselves are practically unrecognizable with one another?

For example: The David Foster Chicago versus Pre-David-Foster or Pre- and Post-Michael-McDonald Doobie Brothers.

IN FACT, finally adjudicated and rendered: Was Evil David Foster really ever evil?
