ok how about Jethro Tull or the Moody Blues? I'm thinking they arent in yet. And who the hell is Chic? Chic is a funk outfit headed up by reknowned producer Nile Rodgers. Tull and the Moody Blues aren't in yet. I don't think they've even been nominated. Same for Yes, Deep Purple, Warren Zevon and l...

They influenced a lot of other $hitty bands The "$hitty" part is a matter of opinion but at least you acknowledge the Ramones were influential, much more influential than Buffett as a matter of fact. Influencing wannabes like Chesney and people that imitate Jimmy Buffett for a living hard...

If a $hitty band like The Ramones can get in, there's no reason why Jimmy shouldn't. He actually has talent. can we also add that if ANY rap can get in to the ROCK AND ROLL Hall of fame, then so should Jimmy. Why? I imagine Grandmaster Flash will get in because they influenced a lot of rock bands a...

I do have one question however....WHY HASN'T JIMMY BEEN INDUCTED YET?????????????? be patient, he will be I'm a huge Parrothead but I just don't see it happening. His influence just hasn't been profound enough. He did induct the Eagles but that's probably as close to being inducted into the Rock n'...

Re: Sammy Hagar????????

Why is Sammy Hagar trying to be Jimmy Buffett? Someone said Sammy's been projecting the island persona as long as Buffett which simply isn't true. Back in the 70s and 80s Sammy was known as the "Red Rocker". The island persona didn't start to develop until the Cabo Wabo bar came to be dur...

gotta agree with Torches :roll: I'd think he'd be a better, more logical choice in the Country music HOF :P What artists has he influenced in the same way Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson have? I'd say there's been a few but not as significantly as those artists influen...

While there's no question Buffett is also a great artist he's done nothing to impact music on the same level t...

While I am certainly glad to see Buffett cover the likes of Gillian Welch and Mary Gauthier on his new album I also strongly suggest checking out those artists themselves. And kudos to Buffett for covering their music which will only help expose them to a larger audience.

At least Here We Are is included on the new album if only as a "hidden" track.

Enough of the cheesey schitck, I'd rather hear new stuff along the lines of He Went To Paris or A Pirate Looks At Forty than any of that novelty crap. Party at the End of the World has to be one of the worst songs he's ever committed to disc. Strong words. I'm going to jump out on a limb and guess ...
