Jimmy Buffett is the American dream.. never expected anything, great work ethic . He deserves the Mark Twain award, and the Kennedy..
He's very genial as a person. Irresistible charm but he also has depth. I can't write as if he is no longer alive. To me he is still out there.
what a man and what a legend. Rest in Peace, Jimmy. We are all really going to miss you a lot. But, thanks for all the great songs and for all of the memories of your fabulous live concerts. Those memories will live on.
There will never be another Jimmy Buffett.....class, to the very end.
You would think that they would put him in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame just for the fact that he created a whole genre of music
Screw that we'll just make the Jimmy Buffett Hall of Fame
Surprised he only won the one award with a 30 second ending with Allen Jackson.
Yes!!! Jimmy Buffett and The Coral Reefers belong in the Rock Hall of Fame. JB and the band know how much they are loved. ED a northeast Ohio native
Inducted 2016😊
He's his own genre so it's hard to classify trop rock.
Absolutely the Best Interview with Jimmy Buffett I have ever seen. I was fortunate to work on a music book, and meet him in the late ‘70’s and this is just a great tribute and extremely well done interview of someone so important to music history in America… well done!!! and most of all, Thank You.
As a singer songwriter I can really appreciate the way he lived his life and played his music !! RIP🙏
Great interview! Brian Hiatt asked the “non standard” questions and it led to some great insight… well done!
R.I.P. Jimmy Buffett, “A Legend Never Dies”
I went to one of his concerts and it was the best concert I have ever been too. Love his vibe! It’s so sad that he is gone now but his music will live on forever!
So humble and grateful. You love a man like that 👏
Hes a treasure. A fellow Alabama boy. His music has been so meaningful from my college years in the 70’s to the present and how thankful I am that this son of a sailor made music his career.
That smile♥ RIP JB
That voice! That attitude! Bubba became so WISE. Such a great talent that gave gifts of JOY. Even in his smile. 💔❤️💔
If you look closely you can see a guardian angel in the door !!! 😍Thank you Mr Jimmy for your Joyous Journey !!! We all have & will enjoy your memories forever more in Margaritaville !!! 🌟🌌🌟🎤🎻🎧🎹🌟🌌🌟🙏♥️🙏
🧐where,I don’t see it.
I wasn’t a parrot head, but I enjoyed the music a lot. He was just a fun, decent guy. And I’m really going to miss him. A lot.
RIP Jimmy.
Life is going to really be hard without this man on Earth. Love you, Jimmy!
Where’s he going?
I LOVE hearing and watching and looking at him. He just plain makes me feel happy...
Jimmy's immortal
@@CBReptiles1 Haven't you heard? He's moving to his Beach House On The Moon! 😎
Well, now we will find out what life is like without Jimmy. RIP 💔
JIMMY BUFFETT IS THE BEST & I've been listening to Him for 50 years & is so hard to believe
that it's been That Long AGO WOW !
Time to put Jimmy Buffet in the Country Music Hall of Fame!
Absolutely!!!
What a great and intelligent interview. Love Jimmy’s attitude.
For all you youngsters watching this, go back and listen to some old Buffett gems like This Hotel Room, Ringling Ringling, Great Filling Station Holdup, Cuban Crime of Passion, Peanut Butter Conspiracy, Dallas, LIfe is Just Tire Swing, Migration, Defying Gravity, Livingston Saturday Night, Wino and I know, Coast of Marseilles, Banana Republic, and on and on.....
My favorite songs of his have changed over the years. But since I’ve recently retired and am preparing to make the move to Orange Beach in a few months, ‘I Have Found Me A Home’ is it. Everything about that song just fits my move to Orange Beach - hell, I’ve even got a red bike! And quite possibly, a Golden Retriever pup named Spooner once I get settled in.
Life will finally be good...
He makes me smile.
Jimmy is my hero. When I grow up, I want to be like Jimmy.
he inspires me too :)))
I have been listening to Jimmy since I was a teenager in the 80s where most kids were listening. To other stuff. I knew back then he guy has great music. I am happy today that Jimmy is established in his career and everyone appreciate his talent as a musician entertainer especially his concerts. 😀👍Fins Up!
Wow. What a great interview. The legendary Jimmy Buffett and a really great interviewer. You don't see a lot of interviews with Jimmy that go to these depths and I kind of went into this thinking, "well this is just going to be a promotion interview for the new album". Cut to...the new album gets discussed for like 5 minutes out of 40 minutes, and the rest is just classic Jimmy, stories, insights...etc. As a long time fan and Parrothead who has seen Jimmy live over 35 times, I really enjoyed this.
We saw Jimmy and band as opener for The Eagles 3/25/77. Really didn't know him at the time. Ended up living in his hometown; met Lucy at party. Saw Jimmy at The Wharf a couple years ago. Still great.
There aren't many people I truly envy but Jimmy Buffet is certainly one! What a talent. Sure hope Covid ends soon and he can tour Australia again!
Yeah I envy him too. Love his actual life, books, songs, travel, sailing. Etc ..
I have always liked Jimmy's music. After reading "A Pirate Looks At Fifty", I both admired and envied him and his freewheeling lifestyle. I never had the guts to just take off down the road with no plan and little money just to see where it took me.
Loved the book. Time to re-read it.
Jimmy Buffet played at my 18th Birthday party with Fingers Greg Taylor..in Jackson,Mississippi 😁40 years ago..🙂..
How cool is that??? Not everyone can say that. I once was on vacation in Ft. Lauderdale and Jimmy Buffett flew in at the beach and waled up and played in outside beach bar. free mini concert.
You're the luckiest person I've ever heard of!

@@jimmybuffett635 hi Jimmy, thanks so much for getting back to me. I’m pretty basic when it comes to a lot of this latest technology so your email address would be easiest for me ( promise I won’t inundate you with emails!). Just one quick story - I had a ticket to the first show you ever put on in Sydney back in 1987, but my first son was born that day. Late in the evening my wife said go and try to get the end of the show. I raced into the city, parked the car sprinted to the theatre, only to see the audience coming out and saying things like‘how fucking great was that!’ Anyway, I have been able to see you since and sure hope you get back down under again some time soon
Jimmy Buffett on Coronavirus- I'm not listening to the politics around this thing. I'm listening to the smart people with a lot of money. Damn, the man is still putting things in the proper perspective.
CO popular 80s. Thank you JB for your hard work, God given talents shared. You will be missed. Sincere condolences to all that knew and loved this gifted, kind man.
Thank you, great interview. May he Rest In Paradise 👏🙌🙏❤️✨🕊🌎
Arlo Guthrie and Jimmy Buffet. Two Great humorus storytellers.
Been listening to a lot of Jimmy Buffet the last two months. “He Went To Paris” and “Cowboy in the Jungle” have been my two favorites. They are kind of related, and very relevant right now. Thanks so much Jimmy!
Love Cowboy in the Jungle
That's What Livin' Is To Me.
I first saw JB in Florida Gym, Gainesville, Florida. I believe it was 1973. What a great ride it has been and it is really cool to hear his side.
Thanks JB.
First show was 93 and around 50 more, went up and down the East Coast, seeing him. Met many amazing friends due to Jimmy Buffett. There will never be another. Been to KW many times, saw him live at the Casa where he did White Sportcoat and a pink crustacean album just for us parrotheads, my fav show ever. Seen him on Duval, too. RiP, Jimmy. Loving this interview. BUBBLES UP!
Yes! Agreed! Rock n Roll Hall of Fame has a hole in it that is missing Jimmy. He’s got the heart and soul - and blood, sweat and tears... (He’s also simply a good guy)
There needs to be a Jimmy Buffett award, like the Mark Twain award.
R.I.P jimmy. We thank u for everything
Great interview. Great questions. And the guy let him speak. Well done.
Best part of the interview is at the very end when Jimmy recalls being on the way to a show at the Blossom Music Festival in Cuyahoga Falls and sees a guy on the side of the road with a sign that says “Need tickets” and he was like “Hell what does HE need tickets for? There’s plenty of tickets in there” and he gets to the venue and the promoter says “You sold out” and Jimmy replied “sold out of WHAT?” 😂🤣😂🤣😂😉
Merry Christmas & happy 76th birthday Jimmy.
Awesome interview! Great job Brian!! Love Jimmy so much! Love Bob Dylan to and to hear Jimmy idolize him I put myself in his shoes (flip flops). I can just imagine sitting on the boat with Jimmy all day talking boat stuff.
Thank you for this interview! Jimmy is so cool! Thanks for a soundtrack to my life. Once the smart people figure out this covid thing I will be ready for a banger of a party with you Jimmy at the helm! Peace, Love and Parrots!
Nothing but love for this man. Xm radio margaritaville is always on my channel. Peace and love my friend.b
Rest in Paradise, Captain.
Rest in Paradise, Jimmy
I'm glad he mentioned Jerry Jeff Walker . They were good friends 👍 RIP Jimmy & Jerry ,🙏
What a fantastic interview. Thanks.
How about putting Jimmy on cover of Rolling Stone.Hasn’t been on since 1979
I grew up and still live in Al. As a teen in the 70's, Jimmy Buffett was seen as laughable cause we were all rock and prog and party heavy with Physical Graffitti etc etc...But 40+ years on, it's pretty clear that Jimmy B. did it and has done it the right way all along. Huge thumbs up to the man cause he has steered his vessel in the direction he's wanted to go, almost from the start. The #1 quality (IMO) that's allowed him to do that is his solid business acumen. His ability to see not being the "greatest guitar player" or "greatest singer" and playing to his own strengths. Many many talented artists have never been heard from because of an incapacity to navigate the business-end of their "profession". PS don't have one of his albums, never been to one of his concerts but I loved Son of a Son of a Sailor from the first time I heard it. Hats off to ya sir !
Well said!
JB, This is great Iview. Peace and Love to you man. I met you at LuLu's where I worked for Lucy a few years back when you came to visit. Keep it Rolling man.
Love you Jimmy 🤗 Am I the only person on the planet that hasn’t been to one of your concerts? Send me some tickets and I ll be there. My grandson would love it. We are making our way thru your unbelievable catalog of music. Stay safe🙏
Saddened to say I have not either
Fabulous interview from an intelligent, lucky performer who has never forgotten where he came from and used all those experiences to put his life into song. Case in point that in all his performances he recalled his first sold out show at Blossom Music Center. I was part of that history and 44 others over the years. The creative fun of being a part of the Parrothead faithful is like no other. Pure enjoyment.
Brilliant. Writer, storyteller, believer in science. Smart. RIP, will miss whatever you would have done next.
I always smile when I hear his music ❤ miss this great guy!
My first show was my November 1986 Daytona Beach Concert. I'm 52 now and still love it!
Love Jimmy, & Hiatt is a hell of a journalist
Tribute this in Rolling Stone please. Seems all our legends being ignored, social justice nonsense Entertainment has become a joke. Beyonce has 33 Grammys More than many REAL LEGENDS that play EVERY INSTRUMENT ZERO TECHNOLOGY RARE, raw REAL Can sing anywhere, anytime. I understand we evolve. I'm so blessed to have been born long ago. Thank you JB for God given talents shared Condolences to all that knew and loved you. Rest easy in Paradise
Excellent interview Hiatt!!
SAW JIMMY AT BLOSSOM IN CUYAHOGA FALLS A FEW TIMES. IN THE 80'S AND 90'S
HE'S THE REASON FOR MY SAILING ADDICTION... CANT WAIT FOR THE JACKSONVILLE SHOW IN DEC.
STEVE S - We loved going to Blossom to see Jimmy when we lived in Cleveland in the late 80’s. Definitely worth the wait to get out of the parking lot after the show.
@@bkbinj6320 THIS NEXT SHOW WILL BE NUMBER 34 FOR ME. DAM, ITS JIMMY'S FAULT I SAIL...
I have a dear friend who was working as a Peace Corps volunteer in Kenya in 1994 for introducing me to his music. Fun, clever man.
May Jimmy live forever.
Today, Friday, September 1st, 2023, Jimmy has begun enjoying that cheeseburger in paradise and will finally now be able to locate that lost shaker of salt. Fins Up 🙏, and may the wind be at his back throughout his next journey - Rest Easy Jimmy ... 😞 ❤️🩹
There's NO slaughter in paradise.
@GOLDENFLYWARRIOR Jimmy's later in life, dietary preferences was strictly healthy with zero carbs, so his heaveny burger would have been plant based, open faced ...
@@michaelhanning2321May his wonderful music live on forever.
@@michaelhanning2321 nice thought yet it was totally cognitive dissonance with Jimmy to promote animals slaughter. Sadly he was a Carnist. But I STILL ❤️ed him. Most Carnist are disconnected about where their food comes from and their pain & suffering to flesh eaters convenience. Our oceans are more & more toxic every year cause oceans are dying. And consuming mammals or even birds is humans lack of a higher consciousness. And you can't be much of an environmentalist flying in big air planes and eating cows, pigs etc....... He was a Carnist. I did love most of his songs. There were only a few I actually strongly disliked.
Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy! Bon Voyage, Dude! Fins UP!!
Great interview with my favorite pirate 🐦🌴🥥
Hey Jimmy, been a big fan for most of my 58 years and only a few albums of yours I don't own. The Bob and Joan version of A Pirate doesn't do it justice and I am fan of both of theirs. Jimmy, I hope we meet one day but if not, I will always have your music, so from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
Loved Jimmy Buffett. He was a national treasure ❤️🥲
EXACTLY!!!!😊
So glad i found this, listen to Jimmy all the time. From Mon Louis Island, Al. Thanks Jimmy.🌴🍹
robbie hancox me too, neighbor. Greetings from the eastern shore
Jimmy Buffett and Peter Franpton should be in the Rock and Roll HOF before any of the recent inductees!
Fair winds Jimmy... Fins up!
Thank you Jimmy ❤️
The only time i saw Jimmy was at Carowinds july 1983. Such fun and a magical summer. In his death ive become a parrothead. RIP
Saw him for 1st time at Carowinds in 1979. It was my future husband n my 3rd date. The 1st of our road to being Parrotheads. Fins up!
RIP Jimmy! 🦜🌴🍹🧂⛵💔😪
You have changed my life ❤
It’s interesting to hear him talk about revisiting his rarely played songs (which are actually my favorite songs of his). It’s too bad that he didn’t get a chance to do what Weird Al did and tour a couple of years playing concerts with his lesser known recordings. And sold out the tours, by the way. It would have been great.
Sequence what ever. Chasing that vibe childrens!!l luv this guy keep dat vibe rollin flow flow flow!!
Sunshine and daisies
Shoutout from red bank NJ- hope to see ya in Holmdel art center ✌🏼stay safe 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💪🏼
Man do I hope to see you live. And hope you keep touring.
Thanks jimmy,u r the man
Hello from South Floriday!!
I love you Jimmy Buffet! You're a sensible man!
Luv ya Jimmy!
Thank you Jimmy!
HEY JB, wish you and Willie would do something together
Exceptional- thx for sharing 🙏♥️
I love Jimmy Buffett and his music and my heart is 💔broken 26:07
Just saw nhim at Jazz Fest 2022 ~ TY Jimmy ~ it was a helluva show!
I love this guy and what he has done
It's interesting to read all these comments even before he died, that are similar to what one reads after a legend passes. He's been a legend for a long time already.
Jimmy's most under rated album was Barometer Soup...poetry put to music you can relate to.
Great interview. Great interviewer.
Love the new album Sorry that the concert in Cincinnati was cancelled.
amazing interview!... It gives a real good idea about the character of the man
He got booed at a Stones Concert in Milwaukee at County Stadium in late 70’s. I was at and one of the few not drug up there and felt bad for him☹️ Jimmys a smart guy and the puppies trashing this video grow up and respect ur elders.
well said.... and stay off my damn lawn! ;)
You did not bad, the man deserved more time. It’s CZcams! This could have been longer.. Your editing was poor, your saving grace was Mr Buffett. He’s gracious, humble, real. With more talent in many other areas. It was like watch an iceberg float by on the screen, you know there is way more underneath.
He's a humble interviewee who doesn't act self-important.
Jimmy - Looking good! How bout some hydration!
This interview was 3 years ago so he must have known he had cancer then. He sounds great yet the Merkel cell carcinoma was early at this time. He hid it well. Wish he could have beat the odds of this rare cancer. Some viruses are so deadly.
simply put... he is my religion.
thank u jb.
Love Jimmy!
Good interview
Love Jimmy Buffet
"A little bit of luggage and a lot of songs" sounds like an album title
A lots of quips he had in this interview sounded like song/album titles. The man just exudes lyricism.
Hi Jimmy! Hugs from Brazil!
Great interview heard all the Jimmy Buffet songs on a West Pac USS Constellation from supervision Petty Officer First Class Dale White his #1 fan.
I like In the Shelter. I wish he’d play that in a concert.
Me too, but it is on one of the Live albums.

I was lucky enough to hear him sing this song in Florida… at one of the many concerts we went too. It was an experience…. I will never forget. In the Shelter is one of his best songs
Thanks for reminding of that song. I loved the easy harmonica fills from Fingers Taylor in that song as well.
Van Morrison New album is Excellent! Rolling Stone Fans will dig it#excellent You should get an interview with Him, too.
