Product description
Buffett,Jimmy ~ Beach House On The Moon
Amazon.com
Jimmy Buffett's music has always had an easy-in-the-islands feel to it, and if his songs seem like postcards sent from exotic locations or notes hastily scribbled on a bar napkin, that's more or less what they are. On Buffett's 31st album, the singer/songwriter, bestselling author, pilot, and son of a son of a sailor offers alternately wry and sentimental observations on everything from our impending doom ("Waiting for the Next Explosion") and the appeal of Cajun food ("I Will Play for Gumbo") to the ultimate vacation getaway ("Beach House on the Moon") and life's sweet mysteries ("Oysters & Pearls"). Buffett also tries on a couple of intriguing covers, including Bruce Cockburn's pensive "Pacing the Cage," Mose Allison's sly "You Call It Jogging," and Fred Neil's laid-back "Lucky Stars." Thanks to the return of a few long-lost members of his Coral Reefer Band, Beach House on the Moon often recalls Buffett's early albums--cause enough for Parrotheads everywhere to fire up the blender, string up the hammock, and give this one a spin. --Daniel Durchholz
Review
Buffett finds salvation in his lilting Caribbean-flavored music. -- People

I'd classify this as an album of ballads and self reflection.
My favorites are Beach House on the Moon, Permanent Reminder, a great interpretation of Bruce Cockburn's Pacing the Cage, Spending Money and You Call it Jogging (I'm convinced he wrote it about my ex).
Good songwriting and The Reefers are in top form as well as the contributing artists like Jack Pearson on slide guitar, Doyle Grisham on pedal steel and Stuart Duncan on fiddle.
The song I bought it for was I will Play for Gumbo, written about everyone's friend Bill Wharton, aka The SauceBoss who makes a pot of gumbo onstage while delivering scorching hot Florida Blues slide guitar.
Thank you Jimmy for introducing the Parrot Head Nation to the SauceBoss !

Yes, I am a Parrothead...long before they named us that.
But, more than that, I love the music. And even more than that, I love a good story put to music.
Buffett has done himself proud on this CD. The stories he tells about tattoos (PERMANENT REMINDER OF A TEMPORARY FEELING), failed love affairs (YOU CALL IT JOGGING), being a caveman in the era of the world wide web (FLESH AND BONE), being a true son of the south (I WILL PLAY FOR GUMBO), and the advice he gives to misery husbands (SPENDING MONEY) are top notch. Not only are they musically pleasing, they're very well written.
I'd like to ask Buffett what comes phirst -- the music or the words.
However, this year on the first anniversary of 9/11, I was really struck by the words to PACING THE CAGE. It was if I was hearing it for the first time. Made me weep.
Get this CD and enjoy songwriting and the joy of performing at its best.
Go, Jimmy!
