Margaritaville

Yep, yeah, my podcast is Play That Rock and Roll.

I'm wearing my Margaritaville hoodie because we've been doing a lot of Jimmy Buffett stuff lately.

I reviewed a great new rock doc called Occupational Hazard, the first coral reefers.

If you're a parrot head, you should definitely check that out.

I don't know what a Jimmy Buffett concert is.

He's Margaritaville, right?

Yeah.

Cheeseburger in Paradise, I think, was his song in that window.

Is drinking a big part of a Jimmy Buffett concert? The face you just made.

What is that? Yes.

I mean, he has a song called Margaritaville.

Margaritaville, yeah.

was actually a mini storage that got flooded.

So this was in Key West, and it was a guy named B.J. Martin who was married to Sunshine Smith, who was one of Jimmy's early managers, and she founded the initial Margaritaville store and several after.

Her sons, Robin Smith Martin and Cayman Martin, are both great folks, and they had a lot of old archives from that time.

Some of the actual film we used was from something that their father BJ had created.

But I think that it was... important that that sound that happens out on stage in a live audience be replicated in the studio.

And it really influenced how the band developed.

Well, yeah, because, I mean, you tell the story in the documentary about how Margaritaville came about.

And I still remember, because to me, the 70s is the best music era ever, and it will never be topped.
