The New Album Cover

Matty · Post by **Matty** » August 28, 2006 8:47 pm

The album cover for the upcoming Jimmy Buffett album is now available. On BarnesandNoble.com the new album "Take the Weather With You" features a cover consisting of Jimmy, leaning against a shack, on some Caribbean beach setting, smiling and giving a surfer's hand sign. The top half of the shack's wall is yellow, the bottom half is greenish-blue. On the yellow portion we see the name of the album. In blue, handwritten font - "Jimmy Buffett" and in red handwritten font is "Take The Weather With You". The cover is remnicent of the "Far Side of The World" album cover in that Jimmy is leaning against a wall with the albums' name written on it.

Here's what he's talking about...Not sure it's the final product given what's on the wall.

I'm not saying that it is, but the beach sure does look like the beach at Lorient in St Barth's. The hill in the background looks like the hill on which the ruins of the Autour de Roche are located.

That would be fitting.

I was thinking the very same thing.

why would it say "take the weather with you" on the cover of Paddlin' Out? I don't think they have a clue what the album will be called.

Cowabunga! I am stoked. Now the man's talking my language.

I just returned from a 3 day road trip to Virginia Beach for the 44th annual East Coast Surfing Championships (http://www.surfecsc.com). Time to go out shop for a new longboard!

I was thinkin' the same thing, or are they changing the name of the album again?

Powerpoint.

And I agree Alison, I like his candid shots better than posed shots.

Until I pay for it, look at it in my hand, and pop the shrink wrap, I'm not believing much of anything about the name or the cover art....

I do know I can't wait, because what we've heard so far has been *fantastic*!!!!

I wonder if there will be liner notes.

I'm more interested in what it sounds like than what it looks like.
