Christoper Cross is a bit of an oddity in the Yacht Rock community. He doesn't have the backgrounds that typical Yacht Rockers have as studio musicians. He began his musical career in Texas, and became an immediate solo success with his first album. He did connect with a lot of the typical personnel, most notably Michael McDonald. McDonald sang background vocals on 2 of the songs on his first album, most famously on "Ride Like the Wind". He did so again on Cross' second album, on "All Right" and the song below, "No Time for Talk".
Both of Cross' first two albums were produced by Yacht Rock monster Michael Omartian, who also played keyboards and percussion. "No Time for Talk" features personnel like Steve Gadd on drums, Paulinho de Costa and Lenny Castro on percussion, and Abe Laboriel on bass. While Cross doesn't have the typical backstory of other Yacht Rockers, his sound is definitively Yacht.
"Ride Like the Wind", "Sailing", "All Right", "Arthur's Theme", "Never Be the Same", and "Say You'll Be Mine" are his best, along with this one: "No Time for Talk".
