Gotta get me one of them!!

oops... sorry I should have known this would be a can of worms.

The duets are nice for a change... but not needed. Which brings the question... Did Jimmy do the duets because he thought it would be fun? To get some inspiration from some different sources? To help bring in the country fans? OR to just make a ringer CD that will crossover and chart well because of...

... on the back of the LTC CD? :pirate: Its not like I have been making copy's and selling or giving them away. :o I just made a copy for each car and imported the whole CD into iTunes at work. And the original copy is at home. Where ever I go its playing. I have probably listened to LTC... 30 times...

There is definitely more of a country "feel" than some of his recent albums, but I wouldn't call it a country album. I think that he has, once again, woven together a musical style that defies categorization. It's not a rock album or a country album--it's just a Jimmy Buffett album! :D I ...

My first was "LTC"




















LMAO!! Sorry... couldnt resist GREAT CD, but not my first.
I cant remember my first.

BRAVO!!!

That is the best post I have read ALL WEEK.
Thank You!! For you TRUE Parrot Head spirit!

I don't think LTC is very country sounding except for the guest singers. They really sound like all other Buffett songs, a little caribbean, with some southern rock, dash of folk, hint of country, and lots of life. If Jimmy was the only one singing these songs (even the covers), we wouldn't be sayi...

I guess Im in the MINORITY... I dont think LTC is mellower... I think it rocks more then the last. NOT TO PUT DOWN ANY CORAL REEFERS> But this CD rocks in part because of Sonny Londreths & Bill Paynes presence on most of the tracks. I am a HUGE Little Feat fan... but IMHO their last studio CD mi...

For me its not so much who wrote the song... its the SUM of the artists performing the song. The CD as a whole sounds very Buffett. He picked the songs that he picked for a reason.

So they are counting something.

DAMN that Rock & Roll... or is it country or pop??

What about the other 9??

I have the CD & the DVD.

Simply Complicated is the token trash song... he does one on every CD. Come on its WAY better then some of the other token trash songs. would you consider "Hokey-Pokey" a token trash song?? That one's got a great quote, "you've only got two options - having fun or freakin' out" ...

It's pretty good,not near as good as FSOTW,but not bad...gotta vote for boats to build! I will probobly catch hell... but I ALREADY like this CD beter then FSOTW. And what does it for me is this CD kinda mixes my 2 favorite bands/artists. With Bill Payne playing keyboard on alot of the tunes and wi...
