From CMT “Jimmy Buffett, Zac Brown Band Reach Fever Pitch“: Just ahead of Friday’s (March 19) premiere of CMT Crossroads: Jimmy Buffett and Zac Brown Band, check out their enthusiastic collaboration on “Free/Into the Mystic.” Brown often performs a medley of his “Free” and Van Morrison’s classic “Into the Mystic” in concert, but here it takes on a giant new fullness with the addition of Buffett and his Coral Reefer Band. As the easygoing song swells to truly epic proportions, the two groups reach a collaborative fever pitch just as the country/jam rock/reggae mix peaks. Since both bands are used to that mix — with one foot on the beach and one in a pine forest — this could be one of the most natural Crossroads pairings yet.
