JIMMY BUFFETT The fine art of upstaging thrives on Jimmy Buffett’s “License to Chill” (RCA). His finely calculated album full of other people’s songs features guest country hitmakers and is produced with Nashville sleekness. In wry or wistful songs about growing more rueful with every passing year, Mr. Buffett’s voice is followed and trumped by stronger, more stylized singers. But in the end he sounds even more like the easygoing guy he claims to represent.

Jimmy Buffett is on the cover of the latest issue of Billboard Magazine with an article “Smooth Sailing“.
Buffett is now turning to putting the finishing touches on his next novel, “A Salty Piece of Land,” which comes out later this year, as well as finalizing a film deal.
“I’ll quit when I can’t remember the words or when I go flat,” Buffett said. “But until then, I’ve definitely got a few more in me.”
