Not one of my more favorite albums, and the title track takes just because he sings about flying the space shuttle over SF and I love SF.

MY SECOND FAVORITE JIMMY BUFFETT SONG OF ALL TIME-
SOMEWHERE OVER CHINA

I won't go into detail of what this song means to me, but if you read my diary from 1971, you'll know why I chose this one.

When Salome Plays The Drum

Steamer makes me think of the Volcano Lady, it was her favorite song.

Most people consider this album a weak link...I'm really interested in the results here

On a Slow Boat... I like the sound effect when the compass goes over the rail and the talking in the background.

Slow Boat To China...it's romantic and a good ballad.

If I Could Just get It On Paper. Not a big fan of this album. Lots of three star songs. No really bad songs, but kind of lacking the great 5 star songs of Jimmy's.

Slow Boat ... obvious choice because it was our first song at our wedding reception.

It's interesting to hear some of the older versions of this song. Frank Loesser wrote it in 1948 and it has been covered by dozens of singers, including many of the greats.

Somewhere over China. For the life of my, I don't understand why this CD gets such a bad rap.

Titile song wins this one. Agree that this may be a "weaker" album, but I still play it alot .
