Does anyone know the history of the band. Original members who left and who replaced?

Heres someone's homemade movie from 1975.

Here's a link.

That doesn't really help as it's more like a database listing of every musician that's appeared on a Buffett record and isn't an actual history of the Coral Reefer Band.

What is the definition of a "Coral Reefer", especially over time?

To me, FWIW, I look at it as anyone who's been a full-time CRB member for a length of time. For instance, I don't see Jake Shimabukuro or Bill Payne as CRB members but as a guest performers. OTOH, even though it's been years since Matt Betton played drums with Jimmy, to me he's a full-fledged former CRB member.

Your mileage may vary.

You didn't hear this from me, but sources have told me that Fingers Taylor is no longer with the band.
