RIP, Jimmy Buffet

I guess it'd be fair to say that Jimmy Buffet's music was indeed an acquired taste. At least to me. And although I never was really able to acquire that taste, I do recognize his impact in american rock and culture... So, may you always have the wind in your sails wherever you are, JB!

Totally agree. Beyond the 5 or 6 songs of his the entire world knows, Until a few years ago, I didn’t give him or his music more than a passing thought. Then…. A few years ago…. It just kinda started to grow on me.

Never been to a concert, and guess I won’t be now…. But from people I know that have. He was quite the entertainer. My son does not like country music. Won’t listen to it. But he’d go to a Garth Brooks concert simply because the guy knows how to engage and entertain a crowd. That was Jimmy.

Yeah. Thought it was a fun song the first 100 times I heard it on Margaritaville Radio. And I sing along with it every single time it’s on….. but I think I could probably go a year or two and not hear it again…… and not miss it. :pound-hand: :rolf:

Edit: Dang it @Mr. Potato Head. Now ya got me singin’ it.

Thanks, as my wife likes to say, I don't like any particular genre, I just love authentic music! If that makes sense.

Well, that and completely nuts as well.

Yeah. My wife questions my sanity as well sometimes.

There’s not much music I won’t listen to. Not much for country. While I won’t turn it there or play it on purpose…... If someone else has it going. I’m good with that. Rap and hip hop I just can’t do.
