Free Music Review: Best Theme Album of the Decade
Hit: 5 Stars
Whether you're a fan of Jimmy Buffett, Carribbean lifestyles, upbeat music, or just wish you could get away from where you are this album will take you there. As you listen to the tunes on this wonderful CD you will be captured by the Buffett spell. That is, you will want to be Norman Paperman. I guess when Jimmy read Herman Wouk's novel he thought "I know this guy and lots like him - I think I'll write some songs around him". Well, if that's what he thought it was a stroke of genius because this IS the getaway album of the century. Buy it, listen to it over and over and you'll see - you'll be selling everything you have and moving to the Carribbean shortly! Oh, and don't forget your license to chill!Free Music Review: Don't Stop the Carnival

Saw the stage show while on vacation in Atlantis, Paradise Island, Bahamas. Just had to buy the CD. For once a musical with lyrics that are enunciated clearly and tunes that are so "catchy" you can hum them for days. This is for anyone who longs for that "island escape" from the day to day or just wakes up in a funk and needs lift to get the day going. Just ordered the book. If the book is even half as good as the other Wouk's (Winds of War, etc) it will be a good read. Wouk and Buffett are not a natural match, but trust me, THIS WORKS If the stage show comes to the states, don't miss it. Even if you haven't heard the CDFree Music Review: I hum it in my sleep
Hit: 5 Stars
If this album was an LP I would have worn it out by now. I have listened to it so many times that I wake-up humming different tracks, usually Callyloo, and realize that I had been humming it in my sleep, as part of a dream. This is different than anything else Jimmy has done, and to me a remarkable set of lyrics and music that bring the story to life. I can't wait 'til the show reaches Broadway where, I predict, it will win awards and gain Jimmy new followings of older and younger fans. P.S. Make sure to read "A Pirate Looks at 50", J.B.'s latest book. Another masterpiece. Read reviews in the Book section of Amazon.com.Free Music Review: Better than I'd imagined!
Hit: 5 Stars
It was with great anticipation that I first listened to Don't Stop the Carnival. Being a fan of Buffett's books and music alike, I was optimistic, but still wasn't sure how my idol would do with a musical. I was pleasantly surprised. The emotions of the women (Especially in "Sheila Says" and "Henny's Song") were clear and very real to me. The recording does make more sense if you have read the novel by Herman Wouk, however, I liked the characters better in the musical BEFORE I had read the novel.
Parrotheads and Musical Fans alike should add this CD to their collection.

If you've never read "Don't Stop The Carnival" by Herman Wouk, then you will find this to be a very, very good album. However, if you have read the book, then you'll know this is an excellent album. Jimmy completely captured the imagery of Norman Paperman and Amerigo. Heck, even if you haven't read the book, after just a couple of listens, you'll find yourself smack dab in the middle of the Gull Reef Club! Be sure to save your money for that vacation trip to NYC when this thing hits Broadway. It will blow "Lion King" right out of the jungle!
