Ep 93: A PODCAST LOOKS AT JIMMY, Part 2: Jimmy Buffett in the Late '70s (1975 - 1979)
Play That Rock n‘ RollShow Notes
"Play That Rock n' Roll" proudly presents the second part of a special mini-series that details the incredible life and career of songwriter Jimmy Buffett. We are joined by my friend Chris to explore Buffett's full studio catalog, track by track. In this episode, we cover a soundtrack he recorded for a largely-forgotten comedy film, the introduction of the Coral Reefer Band, and a hot streak of hit records that made up the most successful period of his catalog, which included his career-defining hit song "Margaritaville". We also settle, once and for all, the debate over what goes on a proper Cheeseburger in Paradise.
We are also joined by Stephanie Myers from the Songfacts Podcast, as she visits the pod to share some thoughts on her favorite album of Jimmy's, which was released during this era.
