Yup Jimmy Buffett was up here in Boston getting treatment all that time. That skin cancer he had was a nasty fast moving type. Too many people who make us happy are disappearing.
He was my favorite go to fun Summer Concert I always looked forward to go seeing every year. Renting a mini bus, Coronaâs with limes, grilling in the parking lot and jamminâ and enjoying the carnival atmosphere before the concert. Those are my memorable memories of when I was younger and had no care in the world. I raise a margarita, a cheeseburger and a stick of Juicy Fruit to Jimmy. You will always remind me of Summertime.
Always proud to be a Parrot-head. Always keep your compass true.
what a great picture of him.
i was lucky enough to have gone to one of his shows at a huge amphitheater back in the mid 90s. boy was that fun. i didn't expect much, but i got so much out of it. total blast. i will never forget it.
steely_d - sad to hear about the crappy NY article. that's very disappointing.
Jimmy Buffet had a couple of good books as well. A Salty Piece of Land is a really good beach read.
yes. i read those, too. really liked that one. he was super interesting. i was never a huge "parrothead" but, i liked his stuff well enough. it wasn't until i met my ex-husband that i was introduced to many other fantastic songs that weren't played on the radio much (if at all) and i became very impressed and intrigued.
this weekend i spent a lot of time on the water on a boat. and, prior to my arrival, i had just learned of his passing. it was a nice tribute to be on a boat and hearing people on other boats nearby blasting his music in his memory.
Wow. I really really like that. Thanks. Never got into Spooky Tooth.
That one record had some gems on it. The original Better By You, Better Than Me (covered later by Judas Priest) and Hangman were protably the standouts. The last couple minutes of Hangman are goosebump-inducing.
The whole album is great, one that you can listen through both sides. Side B is outstanding. Side A also has their long jam of Evil Woman. Used it on one of my MCC mixes.
