"This album is horrible! It states it is a blues tribute to Jimmy but it is more like a garage band doing Jimmy covers. I do not recommend buying this album! This recommendation is coming from a Parrothead and jazz lover and believe me this album does not do justice to either Jimmy or jazz."

Better than no Buffett... barely

"They try hard. Really hard. Kinda the antithesis of the Parrothead Approach. Even so, they come up shorter than a dwarf in a slam-dunk contest. The dustsleeve/card on the album claims that Parrotheads all over will love the spicy new mix. pumpkin spice and marjory are spices, and that is about all these guys brought to the party (their salt shaker is empty to boot...)"

Barely Better Than The Reggae Tribute

"He's BACK!Joe Ferry (producer) is back with another attempt on Jimmy's music. This try is a little better than his Reggae Tribute To Jimmy Buffett cd (UTTERLY ATTROCIOUS). Not as CHEESY as the first, it stays somewhat truer to Jimmy's versions. The arrangements aren't bad, but the lead singer sounds like he came from a Holiday Inn Lounge act. His voice doesn't fit the songs & it becomes more irritating the longer you listen. To be safe, stay with the Picking On Jimmy Buffett cd which is bluegrass versions of Jimmy's songs."
