fortyearspickn Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 Jimmy Buffet has passed. Moved on to that Cheeseburger in Paradise. A really great entertainer - from the cheap seats, it seems he's created a whole new genre of music. I remember he even had a role in a tv show a few years ago - Blue Bloods. Someone was impersonating him. Only in fantasy land could someone be seriously taken for a one in a billion public figure. Peace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now at 65, I remind myself every day I live in death's shadow- it helps me maintain an edge and cling lightly to the world. It is lamentable to lose these aged elderly artists, but not surprising.

J185cat Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 As a former sailboat owner you just expected to cruise into any port or anchorage here in NC and hear the familiar sounds of Jimmy coming from somewhere. It was pretty much a ritual and one I enjoyed. RI Paradise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissouriPicker Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Love his book and music. A really decent guy. No big scandals, no outrageous behavior. Kept his personal life “personal.” Knew how to make a human connection with his songs. A quiet superstar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holiday Hoser Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 He parleyed a simple beach song into an empire. When he was tired of renting tour busses he bought his own fleet and rented them to other bands. One of my greatest moments was seeing him in Lahina (RIP) in CBIP no fanfare just a nod of my head. "Hey I know you" Sail on, son of a sailor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
