Death of an Unpopular Poet (cover)

Hands down, this is Brutus the dogs favorite song.... even moreso than "Waiting for a Train", "Iron Ore Betty", and "Mr. Bojangles" combined.... i don't ask questions, i just play him what he wants to hear -- this one's by Jimmy Buffett, one've his early ones --

I made a short film called "Crimson Creek" that I wanted Buffalo Skinners to be the background music for. I could not find any instrumental versions, but eventually heard your version and the intro was exactly what i was looking for. i hope you do not mind but I downloaded the audio from your video and used it in my video (and it sets the mood perfectly).

Hey thanksHulaGrlatHeart ! I mix words all the time and U could be correct but i like to think the narrator named the pooch after his boat (a "schooner") which he may or may not have done.... stands alongside "Last Mango in Paris" as one've my personal favorites from JB.....

Wow, I forgot about this one! I learned it years ago, and I am in agreement with Brutus, it's a great Jimmy Buffet song!
