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 :)
Great Pics..... You sure did my Florida Keys Justice. i need to take the 45 minute ride to Key Largo and just head south. Well i really want to get pics from the top of the Card Sound Road of the sunrise and sunset on the same day....Good Job ^^55's
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...
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!
I love the shots of Ft. Jefferson, my most favorite place in the world. When I die and am creamated my daughter is putting my ashes in a firework and setting me off over Ft. Jefferson. Going out with a bang or what!?
....Great pics Will!!....a bit north of you, up here in a little fishin', drinkin' village of Englewood, jus south of Sarasota...but like to get down there as often as possible!....Cheers!
fantastic job - love this version of the song! thank you! i recognize almost all of those places. had family in key largo and key west for over 20 years. i miss strolling on that avenue known as A-1-A! still have family in port charlotte - so they'll be dealing with hurricane season again tis year.
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 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.
Love the Keys and Jimmy...thanks for posting. this as it has brightened my morning as I look outside at 12 inches of snow, wondering where and why I have to use a snow shovel.....
Hannah here in Rhode Island . Jimmy is playing right now at Gillette stadium. I use to live outside of Daytona Move back north for love. I ve been to the keys many times Islamorada and Key West for fantasyfest. Last time was right after 9/11. Took my girl friend and she got it(changes in latitudes)Showed her your pics now she is on the phone booking for Oct. ty When I left Fl. a friend told me I had too much sand between my toes now I know what he ment.
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!!
i first heard this song when i was 7 from my dad who i dont talk to much but ever since then whenever im mad ir just upset in general i pop in the live concert cd i have that has this song and listen to it over and over again until i feel better
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
