Fear not- this is NOT just music for your parents.
In fact, for years I thought Jimmy Buffett was some strange goofball who couldn't really write songs and mainly focused on, well, being a goofball. A guy who was more concerned experiencing the joy of warm pleasant air and late night parties, and less concerned writing a vocal melody that holds the test of time.
In other words, I thought the music he was creating was the kind you're not supposed to really care about, because at *least* you're drunk and having fun, so it doesn't even matter what the music is like.
Well guys, I was wrong about that. As someone who's not into parties, dancing, or even having fun for that matter (my idea of having fun is watching Deal or No Deal on TV) I gotta admit, if you sit down and really listen to these songs, there's actually a good chance you will be somewhat satisfied with what you're hearing. Don't expect King Crimson kind of influential, creative experiments (why would you?). Just expect songwriting that's somewhat entertaining and that's it.
Oh sure, there's some typical 70's ballads on here, but most of the songs are about having the time of your life at the beach while you polish your boat, running around through the sand looking for money with your metal detector, or sitting around having a few drinks with the guys in Florida or anywhere else that's warm (as you can tell, I'm jealous of warm places- it's supposed to be 10 degrees here in Philadelphia next week and that makes me angry. January is my second least favorite month of the year).
Just like my dad, my favorite song is "Come Monday". Truly a classic song THAT one is, and I even get tears listening to that wonderful chorus. LOVE that song. We don't need to hear "Margaritaville" anymore though. Oh man, enough is enough.
Most of the songs are more upbeat. I'm guessing more people prefer their Buffett songs to be that way. Who sits around getting depressed over Buffett songs? Yeah, go with the upbeat stuff.
Good album that you shouldn't be afraid to give a listen to. Don't think it's just music for your parents either. You *can* be young and Buffett happy without any shame in it. So go grab a cheeseburger and a couple drinks, turn up the thermostat, and enjoy.
