Does it have to be Buffett songs? I made a 4 CD BBBB set without using any Buffett tunes. There are a few songs he's recorded but none that he wrote. I don't have it in the office today so don't ask me to name the songs I used.

I'd go with Bars. Not sure why, but Bars sounds right

I'd also add Lage Nom Ai to Beaches

Dammit... I just spent a couple hours listening to clips of these... I'm gonna be buying a whole bunch of new CD's because of you...

[Sam]

Here is a thought to consider..............why not a progression from the beginnings of JB's records? From the beginning to the now?

It seems like people are concentrating more on his later stuff and ignoring most of his old stuff. This is just a thought to consider is all. It would/will allow them to hear at least a little of all of him.
Not sure how many cds /compilations you are wanting to make but say 2 or 3 songs from each record/cd, if you have them all, should give you plenty to burn. What you don't have, I am pretty confident you can find or someone here can send you.

Just something to consider.....
