He is best when alcohol is involved.

South Florida,right? "Living on sponge cake, watching the sun bake, cut my heel right down to the bone...." Can't remember any more lyrics. Great song.

It’s not “stepped on a pop tart?” Dang. That’s disappointing. Been singing that one wrong my whole life. I’m sticking with it though.

"cut my heel/had to cruise on back home"
he didn't cut it "to the bone". LOL buffet has never been a great singer. he's a poet, a wordsmith.

He is 70. You are buying memories or are doing a research project... Plus someone once asked Warren Buffett if he gave financial advise to Jimmy and he said JB was doing JUST FINE without him...

Big fan of his old, old stuff from the 70's and early

80's. Lost interest when he became a commercial enterprise. He once sang a song where he stated "instead of making music for money, I started making music for me." Then he became about money. He has done pretty darn well for someone with one hit song. Kind of a Caribbean Dead thang with the Parrothead, old yuppie following

His music you might hear in a bar, radio or elsewhere is o.k. I guess. I never get excited it’s playing. He’s made a bunch of other music most have never heard which is for the best.. It’s a little nauseating with the whole parrot head crowd. They should just admit it is a lot like larping but more expensive.

A1A is fantastic. His "before the beach" compilation is also great along with "white sport coat and pink crustacean" Anything after very early 80's is blah.

Agree completely. The folksy, country sound in his early years was terrific.

Then came the steel drums and 20 person choir. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
