More than
a live album, it is in fact
a "Jimmy Buffett Concert".
It is as close to being there as
one can get.
Customer Review: Parrotheads
Rejoice!!! I had the pleasure
of attending this concert.
It was a cool 50 degrees;
overcast with a westerly breeze
that found it's way into my
bones at times. The people
in attendance were bundled
up in jackets and blankets
and still found the might
to suckle on margaritas and
Coronas. It was an early season
cold front that came through
with an attitude that said, "Jimmy,
I dare you! Go ahead and bring
on the grass skirts and the
Tiki Bar. Let's see what you've
got!"
Well, Jimmy brought it. The
show was terrific as is the
CD reproduction which flows
like the real show. It is
not edited and includes every
moment of the original show
without interuption. .. Jimmy's
discussion between songs lends
authenticity along with plenty
of local references. Highlights
include a tribute to Johnny
Cash and a "Jimmy" version
of (Seattle Jimi's) "A
Wind Cries Mary".
The sound quality is excellent.
In fact, the audience is not
a real factor in the recording
except when intended. Periodically,
Jimmy pulls away from the
microphone during a monologue,
but that's typical of a live
performance. - Reviewer: Jay & Vickie
