With his adopted hometown of Key West and his heady infusion of country twang and a Caribbean-breeze conjures imagery of beaches, boats bars and flip-flops. Jimmy Buffett's vivid storytelling links directly back to the fact that he's a former journalist and history major. Buffett's story-songs resound with pointed observations and a staunch sense of time and place. Buffett spins tales of lost tropical weekends and a broken heart with an autobiographical ease. The album that positioned Buffet as king of the Floridian beach bums was A White Sport Coat and a Pink Crustacean. That was followed by Living and Dying in 3/4 Time, which included the now classic "Come Monday." Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes was the album that made Jimmy Buffett a bona fide superstar. "Margaritaville" became the first Top 10 hit of Buffett's. In 2003, Jimmy Buffett won his first County Music Award (CMA) for "It's 5 O'clock Somewhere," a ditty he recorded with Alan Jackson. Then, in the summer of 2005, Jimmy Buffett teamed up with Sirius radio and introduced Radio Margaritaville (Channel 31). Buffett was nominated again in 2007 for the CMA Event of the Year Award for his song "Hey Good Lookin" which featured Alan Jackson and George Strait. To date, Jimmy Buffett has released over 30. Eight of those have reached Gold Album status (500,000 in sales), 9 have gone on to attain Platinum status (1,000,000 in sales) and 2 have gone multi Platinum. Jimmy Buffett has been a heavyweight-touring act for more than 3 generations and continues to leave happy Parrotheads in his wake.
