The winner of the HCJ poll was In the Shelter.

Next up is Jimmy's 1973 major label debut, A White Sport Coat and a Pink Crustacean.

Thats not even fair to ask anybody choose, so I didn't. I'll tell you my least favorites are Why Don't We Get Drunk and Grapefruit -Juicy Fruit but they are still good songs. WDWGD is a good concert song.

I voted for Cuban Crime of Passion, but I love

He Went to Paris
They Don't Dance Like Carmen No More
and
I Have Found Me a Home

This was tough.

I love CCofP, but I went with "I Have Found Me a Home".

It's got to be Cuban Crime of Passion.

One of my favorite live songs!

Toughest one yet. Had to go with He went to Paris. Cuban Crime was very close 2nd.

I have found me a home blows away anything on that album and the only song close to it is He Went To Paris IMHO

Hard to pick but i picked "Death Of an Unpopular Poet". The rest of the album is a very close second.

Buffett at his very finest with a nice mixture of uptempo tunes balanced out by some of his best ballads. I tried to pick something I thought was most representative of the album and went with "Cuban Crime of Passion", "Carmen" and "I Have Found Me A Home" were also contenders. What a classic piece of work.

My thoughts exactly

I picked "He Went to Paris" which has always moved the crowd on the few occasions I've heard it live.

Wouldn't it have been great if JB had taken the time to write lyrics/music to the best title he ever coined?

Tough one for me but I would have to go with He Went to Paris on this one. Sometimes the "slower" songs are the best.

I picked Cuban Crime of Passion because when I was younger I dated a Cuban girl and she was hot.

That might have been my pick had I voted but what about I have found me a home.
