Jimy Buffett has died Margaritaville

When I saw it on the news they showed a clip of him performing, I was hoping it was to announce a new concert tour but then the anchor said he had passed. I was like NO! Just No! I wasn't really aware of him until I saw him on a talk show many years ago. He had on his signature bandana and flashed those cute dimples. During the interview, which was a fun to watch, he talked about his upcoming projects, of course and spoke of his best friend, newsman Ed Bradley. I wound up thinking...what a charming man!

Sometime after seeing him on T.V., my BFF and I drove from the west coast of Florida down to Key West. I was looking to see if I could see Jimmy Buffetts place down there, but found out later we had passed it and I missed it. I just saw him in an episode of Blue Bloods last week. May he rest in musical paradise. :cry:

I smiled while skipping through this 60 minutes documentary which had to be released at least 3 years ago (according to comments). He was a humble man who spoke in a gentle manner. I absolutely love humble, talented people. It was interesting to see how Margaritaville came to be. That smile! :love:

Right you are! When we used to travel down to Port Isabel for the winter, I always enjoyed listening to Willy Nelson's Sirius station. He always played those great singers like Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Marty Robbins, Waylon Jennings, Loretta Lynn; just to name a few. Those new city slickers with the torn jeans and under wear shirts, pretending they are country, just don't cut it for me! Phony is phony no matter what the music!
