Buffett Chills at Number One (Rolling Stone Article)

Post by Jahfin »

From RollingStone.com: "Buffett Chills at Number One"
Album of duets gives singer-songwriter his first chart-topper
http://www.rollingstone.com/news/story? ... on=double1

Jimmy Buffett's gone country and it's paid off. The beach bum balladeer sold 239,000 copies of his new album, License to Chill, according to Nielsen SoundScan, to debut Number One. While Buffett's summer tours have always prompted Parrotheads to flock together in droves, record sales (aside from his Greatest Hits album) have always been a bit cool. But last year's "It's 5 O'Clock Somewhere," a duet with chart-topping country crooner Alan Jackson got New Country fans hip to Buffett. He further courted that constituency by recording Chill with a gaggle of Nashville stars including Jackson (again), Kenny Chesney, Toby Keith and Clint Black. For Buffett, the formula resulted in his first Number One record.

It's so funny to see his name up there with these other acts.

Apparently, my work thinks that Rolling Stone should be classified as p***! :roll: :roll: :roll:

Hey All........,
It is a great cd to listen too. It's Jimmy returning to where he came from. Jimmy was country way back in the early day's, then added some steel drums and conga's to the mix, turned some of his loyal fans to hate him, became the head parrot & the king of escapism, is growing old gracefully, slowing down, winding down a brilliant and amazing career. But its not over, "not yet"................
