Sorry man - I would have told you had I known you liked him....
Truly sad. Died of a heart attack.
They put out one additional book of his - a partially completed novel and a few other tidbits.... called "A Salmon of a Doubt" Pretty sure Amazon has it. And then my good friend Cmtnfish turned me on to a great non-fiction Douglas Adams book (someone help me with the title) where he documented a few trips he did looking for nearly extinct animals.

Key Lime...Love the Sig Line man.. Is Simply Complicated written by Jimmy ?? sounds it
Well guys in my Ignorant opinion i think that Window To The World is going to be one of the best on the Cd..along with Coastal Confessions, Piece Of Work, Back to the Island..Simply Complicated sounds like a fun tune..i couldnt get Coast Of Carolina to work on my comp though
i dunno...this Cd sounds really good...Jimmy Seems happy, and when Jimmys Happy doing something he wants to do i think it reflects on his music.
I hope that all the greedy bastards in the world
Come back as lobsters.

Suits them well.

BMG has a bad link for the real-audio version. Try the Windows Media version link or click here for the correct Real Audio link...

I'm a little late getting home from work and jumping into this discussion. However, I feel the need to put in my two cents. Jimmy began as a country star. It is only fitting his success on the charts would come from the country music genre. I listened to the sound bites from the new album. I like them. I especially like the blip from "Simply Complicated" because I deal with a lot of people who could be, should be, or have been on the Jerry Springer show. I also like country music. I can't wait to get the new album. I was hooked when I finally heard Coast of Carolina live in Atlanta. Hey Good Lookin and LTC had to "grow" on me, but then again, I HATE WDWGDAS. Individuals make up the world. It would be boring if we were all alike.
So does anyone know what songs were written my Jimmy ??

I am willing to give LTC a chance. Some of my new favorite Buffett tunes are ones that I was lukewarm about in the beginning. Yes, I will buy it without a question because I want everything that Jimmy does.
For my tastes, I like the duet with Martina the best so far. I will admit to being a big fan.
I can't get the link for the Clint Black duet to work, anyone else having trouble?
tryin' to reason wrote:I'm not buying it because:
1. I buy JB albums to hear JB, not duets with other stars who also want to play the cross-over game.
2. I don't like country, and clearly the vast majority of this music is country
3. I don't blindly buy everything anyone produces, just because I'm a phan.
No, you don't have to agree with any of this, but I believe the question was "Am I the only one who is unimpressed with LTC?", and my response is "no".
I sure do find it curious that your sig line is from one of the twangiest tunes Jimmy has ever recorded.
I am umbilically connected to the temperate zone.... Heaven on Earth
Its his loss if he doesnt buy the album, I don't understand how somebody can go to a website about an artist, make over a 1000 posts, then refuse to buy that artists newest cd.
I just thought I'd bring this back up, in case anyone's opinion changed when they heard the CD.
I'll admit to changing my opinion. I was excited about a country release, thinking it might be a "back to the roots" thing. I was disappointed when I heard LTC and HGL, and very unimpressed when I heard the :30 samples on-line.
But now, having heard the whole thing, I really like it. Much better than I expected. Even HGL and LTC fit in nicely and I like them more than before.
Most importantly, it sounds like Jimmy is having fun. And that's gotta be good!
My biggest fear is that when I die, my wife will sell all my Buffett stuff for what I said I paid for it!

I guess I am disappointed as a whole.
Maybe I'm missing something. You liked 7 out of the 16 tracks and are still disappointed? I know a lot of Grumpy Old Parrot Heads who couldn't find 7 tracks that they liked in the last 3 Buffett albums combined (not counting Meet Me in Margaritaville)!
