  • Memories, Memories... Thank's Becky for reminding me that ever so often a ParrotHead needs to return to the nest..... I need to get back

  • great little vid bra, loving the pics as well as the good ole JB music, BEACH BUM DREAMIN 4 LIFE

  • A1A was my 1st Buffett album and is still my favorite. Actually thinkI had to buy a 2nd copy cause I wore the 1st one out. "It cleans me out and then I can go on!" What a great line and s true! Jimmy has never had a bad song but this is up at the top my my list!

  • Never been to Florida but I live in Michigan and listen to Jimmy as I spend hot summer days fishing on Lake Huron. A line in the water, a Corona in my hand and Jimmy on the radio...it's not paradise but pretty damned close.

  • Jimmy got in my blood many years ago when I was living in Florida . Live back in Vermont now ... Have loved this song for years ,, God , I need a nice warm beach . Thanks for taking my brain there anyway :)

  • "Jimmy" not "Jimmie". I absolutely love this song, and I'm 16... Thanks for putting it on here. I feel like I'm at the beach now.

  • god I miss the nights in a beach town. And the days too.

  • Just moved to So. Fl. after surviving snowstorms. Grew up in Alaska and have been a Parrothead since seeing Jimmy back in 1978.  A few weeks ago I went down to the Keys. Stayed up for over 24 hours taking in the view. The beauty drove me to tears. This is the most beautiful place I've ever been including Hawaii. Love living on the intercoastal and waiting for Jimmy to sail on by. My birthdays next week on the 6th! Full bar and steel drums. Jimmy's invited!

  • ah! You guys are killing me with the Keys and South Fl comments.. Just picturing all those drunken nights on Duvall St. having that warm evening sea breeze cover you as you watch the sunset... Makes me wonder why the hell I moved...

  • Comment removed

  • Lived in a house on the beach in Newport Beach CA..many years ago. Most Friday nights would weave my way back home down the boardwalk from Balboa. Slept in the hammock on the patio, and every Saturday morning would "stumble" across the road (next door) to the Blue Beet Cafe for Bloody Mary's. Then Jimmy wrote this song. It has always reminded me of those great days.

  • This is so beautiful, and I agree that there is no more beautiful place in the US than the keys. Wish I was there right now! Mallory Square, I want to be there!

  • Buffett's been working pretty hard the last 20 years. Wonder

    what her name is?

  • THIS is beach music.

  • thanks for your beautiful work here!

  • Beautiful song and beautiful scenery. It brings back lots of great memories. Thanks for the post.

  • I spent my honeymoon in the keys takes me back to great times thanks for the video.

  • OK I was buzzing up the Natchez Trace in my 74 camaro, Greg was from my neighborhood , just older and it made it easy for me to connect. I learned that life is just a tire swing, Jimmy Buffetts eyes were alot redder than mine and my whole world lies waiting behind door #3. Jimmys 61 now, lives in '''NEW YORK CITY'' . I remember when he said he didn't do his music for money he did his music for him..... Money. I will always Love his Gig, He just reminds me of a friend I once had.

  • don't even care what happened to this singer and the harp player, just wish they could get back together and do more. I think they were really good friends back in Hattiesburg Ms. I guess Greg got tired and Jimmy's drive seperated them.

    THANKS FOR WHAT YOU DID...FOR ME

  • makes me miss the HI islands...I was stationed there for 4years...I wish i was a pirate like Jimmy

  • Thanks Will...great slide show....I live a few blocks sourth of the Hillsboro Lighthouse in Pompano Beach...no hurricanes this year...it's all good

  • Yes We have are we too

  • Thanks for taking me back to my youth. I lived in Palm beach and a few other areas until 8th grade. Every time I listen to Buffett, I mentally go back to my dad's boat & watching the waves & picture A1A & the causeway bridge where you could see Hutchinson Island. Ahh, such an inexpensive way to vacation.

  • I have been a parrothead for years and this version of "Trying to Reason with a Hurricane Season" has been one of my favorites for years. You did a fantastic job with the video! Thanks for putting such a nice "feel" with the song! Great job!!

  • A radio station here in South Florida, used the line from this song about strolling down

    A1A as jingle between songs. That is how I discovered it. I wanted to hear the whole thing.

    U.W.
