My entire family were HUGE Parrot heads. He was a huge influence on my musical taste and even in the activities I do with my seniors (Activity Director here). When I started to play Ukulele, one of the first books I got was dedicated to Jimmy Buffett songs. He will be missed in this house! Parrot Heads are Everywhere..we mostly liked the music and relaxed mellow. . Hope they have good ( as opposdd to X style) Cheeseburgers in the "Real Paradise!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted September 3, 2023 #29 Share Posted September 3, 2023 One song? He had many more hits and as above noted, was quite a business man, author, pilot, etc. My favorite song is "Come Monday" . I expect its "all right". now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheeseheads4ever Posted September 3, 2023 #35 Share Posted September 3, 2023 May God Bless Jimmy. Every time I heard one of his songs it brought a smile to my face. I was shocked to hear the news… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolebludger Posted September 3, 2023 #36 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Jimmy had far more than just one hit song, although only made #1 on the charts for many weeks. But others are still getting radio play on pop/rock stations in my area. Yes, before his death. He was involved in restaurants, bars, and even a cruise line. Pretty darn good businessman, as well as a musician. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
