Editor's note

Captain and Tennille's soft pop and close harmonies

A married duo whose bright 1970s singles like 'Love Will Keep Us Together' defined a certain kind of radio optimism.

For their peak sound, 'Love Will Keep Us Together' is the place to start. 'Do That To Me One More Time' shows the later, softer side.

Their sound was built on soft pop melodies and close vocal harmonies, heard on tracks like 'Do That To Me One More Time' and 'Muskrat Love.' The duo's television variety show, 'The Captain and Tennille,' ran from 1976 to 1977. Their music, particularly the bright, optimistic singles from their peak years, remains a staple of 1970s pop radio.

Captain and Tennille were Daryl Dragon and Toni Tennille, a married pop duo who found success in the mid-1970s. They released several albums through the late 1970s and early 1980s, including 'Song of Joy' and 'Come in from the Rain.' Daryl Dragon's health issues led to a reduced touring schedule in the 1980s, and the couple divorced in 2014.
