Ride Like the Wind

This song came up on social media recently. There was a lot of what some people are calling "Yacht Rock" on the radio in the late 1970s and early '80s. I'm not sure we called it that exactly back then. It is a bit hard to believe that this song came out 45 years ago. The album was released on 27 December 1979, and the single was released in February of 1980.

This song is "Ride Like the Wind" by Christopher Cross from his 1979, self-titled, debut album.

And you can't hear the guitar solo at the end of the song. But You can hear it in the Rick Beato video The Greatest Guitar Solo You Can’t HEAR! If you don't want to listen to the whole video (it's only 11 minutes), you can find the relevant section at 4 minutes and 40 seconds.
