RIP Jimmy Buffett.
I've never been a Parrothead, but I've always enjoyed Buffett's music. And more than just the hits, too. He blended a lifestyle into music that made both appealing.
On a side note, I wanted to post the Rolling Stone obituary for Buffet, because that would just feel right. More right than a BBC link, anyways. But...paywalls. Anyways, if you're an RS subscriber, click the link in that last sentence and enjoy. I'm sure it's an excellent article on Buffett's life and unique career in music. If you're not, join with me in lamenting that the masthead that should be the source of record on biographies of famous rock musicians...isn't.
