Far Side. i actually feel like I am traveling with jimmy when I hear this song. So descriptive of his travels and life. Tonight I Just need my guitar is a very close second though. This album did produce Jimmy's 2 least favorite songs of mine thought. Hokey Pokeu and Autour are unlistenable for me....

As thr father of my own LMM, i always smile at the line "Little Miss Magic, what ya gonna be?"

definitely UJB-wish he would start playing it again. In 1995, I had a weekend where I drove to Virginia to see a show (cant remember which venue) on a Friday, then drove back to Pittsburgh picked up the wife and drove to cleveland to see Jimmy at Jacobs Field. Jerry Garcia died that Friday and Jimm...

I have asked this trivia question before. When Jimmy start playing some of the songs during the 1993 tour the album had a different working title. Anyone remember what it was? Was it Quietly Making Noise? You are correct sir! Heard it during the Tacoma show from 1993 right when he introduced Quietl...

I love First Look. It's about going down to Brazil... I love the infusion of Portugese into the song, and the rhythmic, pulsing repetition in the song. It's lovely and I could listen to it over and over. A while back I posted a thread on what wa Jimmy's most underrated album and I proposed it was F...

Come on...is there any song that you enjoy hearing more in concert than OPH??? Only every other single one. Absolutely at top of my list of songs that have become a "mandatory" song at the expense of more variety that I wish would just go away. And yes i know I am way in minority on that....

I Wish Lunch Could Last Forever...It's romantic and always brings back memories of reading Tales From Margaritaville. I was just thinking that the album is basically the soundtrack for Tales From Margaritaville was Buffet's best work. Anbd frankly compared to his literary work of the past 15 years,...

So many great songs on this one. Nautical Wheelers was the song I liked most at first and I still enjoy the good old waltz beat. I love the lyrics about the sail boat race and will always picture the crazy dancer in the crocheted vest when I hear this song now. I realize I like lots of songs with p...

Not good. Brilliant.

I think of this song when I'm flying.

Amen. I always this is one of his under the radar songs that I love. "Don't let mama cut those curls" reminds me of curly haired little one.

I voted for Great Heart but when I am trying tos core Brownie points mention to my wife that this song reminds me of her!

(Since it won't allow more than 15 poll options, I'll split this one in two)

Does that mean the two winners will have to play each other?

Coast of Carolina is my favorite of this set.....

Coast of Carolina is best and its not even close.

Yes...

Night I Painted The Sky. Tough call from a weak album.

ragtopW wrote:West Nashville..... the Story is among the very best that Jimmy tells

Its brilliant songwriting. Short simple and to the point and tells a great story. Love it.

Gods Own Drunk and Ballad of Spider John are my two least favorite songs ever. Rather listen to anything else.

African Friend I woke up on the steps of a whorehouse ... :lol: I was just listening to that song. As Cowboy In The Jungle is my all time favorite song it gets my vote. there is no line in any song that means more to me than "His original destination is just another story he loves to tell"...

Docktails at 5 wrote:One of my favorite albums. When the wild life betrays me seems to be a look into the future for him.

Which is why its such a brilliant song and one that meant so me in my younger and wilder days. When it finally did, fortunately I had someone there to help me pick up the pieces.

Dreamsicle. One of first Buffett concerts I ever went to he ended by coming out alone and singing this song and it was brilliant.

Ironically I find "Treat Her Like a Lady" far down the list, but thats why Jimmy Buffett appeals to so many!!!

This album came out in 1994 just as I got married, was finishing law school and me and the wife were getting ready to head out into life. It was also at about the height of my fanaticsm over Jimmy. When I heard Delaney Talks To Statutes I swore I would name my daughter that some day. She turns 6 a w...
