As much as I like Great Heart, didn't have to give this one a second thought.
Last Mango all the way

I agree, BEG, this was a tough choice. Great Heart was such a fun opener for a while, but the setlist folks always had fun listening for LMIP.
My BIL used to go to Buzio's, so I think of him and this song.
I really just love the image of the ALBUM cover of LMIP. I remember once eating at Tujaque's in New Orleans and there was a photo of Jimmy from LMIP given to the owner of Tujaque's with a message about having the photo taken at Galatoire's.
Such a cool photo. Thanks to buffettremasters.com

I love them both, but Great Heart is Johnny Clegg's song, and while Jimmy's version is okay, nothing could replace JC back in the day when I saw him in person!

JC is why I am partial to Great Heart too...I need to try to factor that out of the equation.

Thought this might be close...with the swing being that Jimmy wrote only one of the songs. But it's not even close.

This is difficult. Both are great songs live. However it boils down to LM being a classic!
