This is a great album for any of you Buffett fans out there. We are boaters and there is nothing like being on the water and listening to Jimmy Buffett!

This record has Volcano, a standard at any Buffett show so it is a must have for any Jimmy fan. There are also a few good under the radar tunes on here that might just turn your head. Enjoy

Another Good One by Steven Sly (Kalamazoo, MI United States) 4 Stars

"Volcano" is the album where Buffett's commercial success begins to slide a bit. The album still sold well and had three songs "Fins", "Volcano" and "Boat Drinks" that were minor hits. "Fins" and "Volcano" are two fan favorites that are never missing from Buffett's live set lists to this day. The album as a whole is another strong one, but a step down from his previous effort "Son Of A Son......". Buffett writes or co-writes every song on the album. Highlights include "Fins" which is a great up-temp rocker with lyrics about "the sharks that swim on the land". "Treat Her Like A Lady" is about a ship not a woman. "Chanson Pour Les Pettits Enfants" with it's French chorus is a unique Buffett tune. "Survive" is another good one. Anyone who lives in the north can relate to the "I want to go where its warm" lyrics of "Boat Drinks". The remaining songs on the album are pretty average Buffett. Ironically the title track on the album was inspired by the volcano on Montserrat which a few years later would erupt and destroy the majority of the island.

Listening to this CD puts me in a light-hearted and care free mood.

What you'd expect from Jimmy by PJY (Cumming, Ga USA) 4 Stars

Listening to Volcano is like listening to a cliche of what Jimmy Buffett has become. Good time tunes with humor and occasional touching insight. I always had the impression that Jimmy wrote this album for his growing island loving fan base rather than writing it for himself - ala "writing my music for me". It is a good effort with good songs but the only song that really seems to touch heart is "Treat her like a Lady". I still listen to it often, but it isn't my favorite.

Son of a Son of a Sailor

Buffett caught a major wave on his commercial breakthrough, Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes, and he rode it straight through the follow-up, Son of a Son of a Sailor. Buffett posits himself as a lovable rogue in the semiautobiographical title track, recounts a party out of bounds on "Fool Button" and delineates the perfect meal on "Cheeseburger in Paradise." Other songs find him checking in from a variety of ports of call, including Aruba ("African Friend"), Paraguay ("Cowboy in the...

A White Sport Coat and a Pink Crustacean
by Jimmy Buffett

When Jimmy Buffett recorded this, his major-label debut, he was neither a country artist nor a Los Angeles-style folk rocker, and he hadn't yet happened upon the beach-bum persona that has sustained him through the last quarter century of his career. Yet White Sport Coat contains forays in all these directions. It features some of his most enduring songs, such as the sweet, sentimental "He Went to Paris," "I Have Found Me a Home," and the outrageous "Why Don't We Get Drunk (and Screw)." There's...
