Je was. good business man. Much more made with restaurants et all than from making unique music.

What always amazed me was how one great song early in a career (which is admittedly hard to achieve) can propel someone to the fame and fortune he had. There are many good songs from one hit wonder bands, but this one was so good and the follow up also, that led to so much more. Maybe it is simply how so many identified with it...
skfisher, you are missing so much of the picture. Not even sure what song you are referring to. The song that changed his life (literally) was Come Monday that came out a few years before the anthem most people know.

thompsontechs, that brought back many of the feelings I was beginning to deal with. Very appropriate. Someone who got it.
leadbelly, yours too.

When involved in a thread, the only time I am allowed to housekeep is when I am instructed by the other Mods. Been that way since day 1.
Who is Peter and what post are you talking about?

Must confess that I know his name exclusively by your contributions to the 15 Album thread, Cal. Don't even know his music. But a loss is always sad.
RIP!

Jimmy Buffett was a very, very avid collector of antique radios -- he would pile them onto the luggage when getting into his charter. When he was out on the road he would visit thrift shops etc and scour for old tube radios. He would also spend a lot of time talking with the audio guys who were setting up his gigs.

Did you really put hot dogs into the burgers? Yikes.
What I meant to say was that so much of the picture is missing in your statement. Not your lack of knowledge.
Back in May when he went for a check up in Boston and the Dr. said whoa boy! You're staying with us for a bit. You had to know there was something more a paper cut.
Growing up we referred to that as a rodeo burger. The burgers were of course made with horse meat and the wiener was the saddle on top.

If you couldn't have fun at a Jimmy concert you were dead. I saw him 6 times.
He loved his Cavaliers too, I have 2 of them.

Was introduced to Jimmy in the summer of 1974.
While the other kids were listening to songs like:
The Night Chicago Died
Band on the Run
Locomotion
Seasons in the Sun
My cousins introduced me to:
Come Monday
Christmas of 1978 my brother got the album
You Had To Be There
I was hooked. It was the start of my journey.
Jimmy is so much more than a musician
Jimmy is a lifestyle
I could only ever wish
To say Margaritaville is not a nice place to be means you are many species removed from a Parrothead.
I feel for you.

Loved the photo making the rounds of Jimmy skying behind a Grumman Albatross, Now that's gotta be "BIG-Fun"
