Nice video of Volcano. I did not even know that Jimmy had a steel pan player before Robert. Anyone know who the lady is?

Michael,
I think that is ML Benoit...Mary Lou Francis Benoit pronounced(ben wha)

She is listed on the Coconut Telegraph album...and that show was recorded in 1981?

I didn't watch Jimmy "grow older but not up"

I never saw him until his no mustache/bald days. The first time I saw an earlier years picture of him I said "Wow! I wouldn't have picked him from a line up as the same guy!"


Cool pictures and loved the video.

I still haven't recovered from my first impression of the clean shaven Jimmy on the cover of the Hot Water album (yes vinyl).

A part of me still thinks the original was kidnapped by aliens and a replacement Jimmy was left behind.

Speaking of old pictures of Jimmy...I love this one you posted, Bob, of Jimmy back in the early 80s. I had never seen this posted back in May. And, Nancy, I had never seen him back in THE DAYS either. :D :D

yup 1981..........
it's listed on youtube as "Broadcast on Friday, May 8, 1981 on ABC's comedy show Fridays, Jimmy Buffet and the Coral Reefer Band perform "Volcano" ... introduced by Nat E. Dred ... ya, ya ya!"

I LOVE the pic of James Taylor :)
