Is it impromptu if it is announced?

We welcome back the Father of Modern Calypso--Mr. Irving Burgie to Time After Island Time. Irving Burgie, or as he is sometimes known Lord Burgess, wrote many classic songs of the Caribbean such as Day-O, Jamaica Farewell. Burgie composed some 34 songs for the Legendary Harry Belafonte including 8 o...

The Kindred Spirits (1968). I did not realize how much of a following Deb McColl had even before the JB thing. She has quite a fascinating story. Heck, the entire band has incredible stories. Running smack dab into Neil Young, opening for a young Jerry Jeff Walker, etc, etc. These shows being in Geo...

Vocalist and songwriter Deborah McColl, who was the first Coral Reefer backup singer, is reuniting with Phil Rolleston and Thom Tollerson of her folk trio the Kindred Spirit. McColl is known to many for singing with Jimmy Buffett in his Coral Reefer Band from 1978-1982. Her vocals were captured on t...

Not acoustic, but--

Harry Belafonte and Jimmy Buffett.

JB & Gordon Lightfoot.

As far as the people doing the Island music or "trop rock" as some call it.

Gene Mitchell is the Cream of the Crop.

I got ya.

I'm a Sparrow fan too.

I don't hear much of a Mighty Sparrow influence either. Which other Mighty Sparrow is there?

I only know of one. Born in 1935 and the Calypso King of the World.

Or are you talking about the Mighty Bomber? Of which there are two.

I think he should remake "Gambling Bar Room Blues."

I need some data on that. Anyone know about that or Lord Kitchener for that matter?

His name was Johnny Youngblood. I wonder if he knows he inspired JB to pick up the guitar? Who's ever heard of someone getting into music to get women???? Um, like, I'm thinking you were just being sarcastic, but in case you weren't, ranking #1 would be: EVERY SINGLE 80's HAIRBAND! Probably 85 perc...

Name the pup "Greenidge."

I love Landshark, but I'm also a cheap fella. 50 cents a beer is what I average!

Who's ever heard of someone getting into music to get women????

I personally like Steely Dan, then again I'm the type of guy that thinks KISS and Jimmy Buffett should headline together.

As far as women influences, including the aforementioned Madonna, perhaps Barbara Mandrell and Dolly Parton? Aside from Jimmy's influences, what about whom Jimmy influenced??? I think he influenced Sheryl Crow. She used to be a back-up singer for Jimmy (and Michael Jackson, too, in case you were wo...
