 | Christmas Island [Read More ...]

 | Songs You Know by Heart : Jimmy Buffett's Greatest Hit(s) [Read More ...]
Description: Critics have always been singularly unkind to Jimmy Buffett. Or at least they have since the singer became immune to their jabs, commanding a nation of Parrotheads who sell out his shows, snap up his records and books, and eat and drink in his nightclubs in Key West and New Orlea... |
 | Meet Me In Margaritaville: The Ultimate Collection [Read More ...]

 | Living and Dying in 3/4 Time [Read More ...]

 | A-1-A [Read More ...]
Description: Jimmy Buffett's albums are almost always happily hedonistic, but every now and then even he admits that there's hell to pay for all the high jinks. On A1A, an album named for the coastal highway that ends just blocks from the singer's onetime home in Key West, Florida, that reali... |
 | License to Chill [Read More ...]
Description: Country music's infatuation with the puka-shell rock of Jimmy Buffett has been one of the genre's less fortunate indulgences. Most of Nashville's hat acts do little more than dip their toe in the water and do nothing to build upon Buffett's signature sounds. That's why License to... |
 | A White Sport Coat and a Pink Crustacean [Read More ...]

Description: Buffett sold his promise as a real-world singer-songwriter God knows how many boats ago, but 1977's Changes remains one of his last stands before plunging into a sea of parrotheads, "Fins," and personal empire building. "Margaritaville" was the deceptively lighthearted hit, but S... |

 | Havana Daydreamin' [Read More ...]
Review: Average Buffett Album:By 1976 Buffett had developed a solid cult following, but had still to really hit the big time. That would come with his next album "Changes In Latitudes", but on "Havana" he had yet to jump on the platinum bullet train. Buffett's backing unit The Coral Re... |

 | Hot Water [Read More ...]
Review: Takes some listening to get something out of it:The first couple of times I listened to 'Hot Water' I didn't like it. The music seemed to be all over the place and Jimmy didn't seem to be very engaged in the songs. However, after a few listens, many of the tunes grew on me and I ... |
 | Buffett Live: Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays [Read More ...]
