Re: RIP - Jimmy Buffett
I don't know what to say that hasn't already been said. So much of what he recorded is special to me, as I know it is to everyone here. I feel like listening to his upcoming album will be therapeutic, fun, sad, and everything else... but glad he got to do it and that we get one last collection of ...

Re: "Buffett returns with lackluster album" — Michael McCall/AP
I don't think a lack of connection is the issue - it's the cheesy side taking over which seems to want to cater to concert goers that like the drunk bar song silly stuff rather than the singer songwriter who once didn't have include steal drums on songs.
I wish he would step back and just do some ...

Re: Jimmy Buffett's Warm Island Grooves (Rolling Stone)
I can remember the last time they were not good to him. I thumbed through an issue a week or two ago, where they listed the top 50 live performers. He was not listed at all. (I will find out tomorrow if I think he deserves to be on the list.)
Well, um ok, I guess if not being kind includes ...

Re: "Buffett returns with lackluster album" — Michael McCall/AP
The days of his songwriting being mentioned in the same breath as Prine, Clark, Goodman, Walker, etc. has long since passed. Especially when he records crap like "Too Drunk To Karaoke" and "I'm No Russian", both of which are downright embarrassing.

Re: Jimmy's Political Comments
This is silly. Jimmy was merely pointing out the obvious - that the previous administration was focused on letting industry control government policy and appointed such people to agency executive positions to do so and even went further with oil. VP Cheney held meetings - secret meetings soon after ...

Re: Buffet Hotel
I did not care for Take The Weather With You much at all... perhaps the weakest cd of his I own and now this one.
Just not inspired at all except for the political rant which is fine, but there's no couple of solid songs that are the centerpiece of the album like most of his albums. I think it's ...

Wow Whoop is really taking a beating. I guess nobody here cares for Mark Knopler's style or amazing guitar playing. This is Jimmy's best vocals in a long time.
Too often now, he sounds more like talking than singing (doesn't help with the actaul talking that he does in songs).
First listens are ok ...

Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
After a brief dalliance with contemporary country on 2004's License to Chill, Jimmy Buffett returns to his tried-and-true Caribbean pop with Take the Weather With You, and if anybody familiar ...
