Looks like another of the "old guard" of well followed entertainers has passed.
Jimmy Buffet has died at 76.
If you have never been to a Jimmy Buffett concert, you probably won't really understand the attraction and fan loyalty that JB's "Parrot-Head" followers had for the entertainer.
Buffett concerts were an experience in so many ways. From the parking lot fan displays to the audience participation during the shows.
JB's shows were some of the most fun shows I have ever been to..... probably been to a dozen.
If you remember Rancho Deluxe, it was a movie that JB wrote the music for in his early years.....Sam Waterstone may want to forget his part.
Some of his "Bit" parts included being at the controls of the plane in the movie Congo as he was an accomplished pilot.
Nice write up from NBC News- https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-new...garitaville-singer-dies-songwriter-rcna103104
RIP Jimmy.
Thanks for the memories.
