"Jukebox Bay" by Waverland has some great rhythm, lyrics and harmonies. Got turned on to this band from a fellow BNer. Enjoy!

For us Miramartians, we have Blue Lew who wrote and performs our local anthem, "The Neighborhood Song". If you have ever been to Cabana Cafe, Theo's Pizza or Stinky's Fish Camp, you may have had the chance to hear Lew and his band perform....

Re: Favorite island themed song or songs (not by Jimmy)
a few of my faves:
Island Daze - Jim Morris
The Good Life's Begun - Bill Crews
Caribbean - Hank Snow
Mexican Minutes - Brooks and Dunn (I found myself singing this a lot while vacationing there)
Voila, An American Dream is great. I'm partial to Guy Clark's version.
The song was written by Rodney Crowell and his version aint bad either

Oh so many things I can’t remember
And way too many things I can’t forget
What time does church begin? Tell the priest I’m checking in
I want to cleanse my soul so I can do it again and again and again and again

Jimmy was once quoted as saying that a lot of people used to ask him if that *was* his song.surfpirate wrote:Easy ...... American Dream (Coconut Grove) by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
Jimmy would totally do this song proud as a cover.
even better version (with Linda Ronstadt)
