Beach House On The Moon [ENHANCED CD]
Jimmy Buffett's music has always had an easy-in-the-islands feel to it, and if his songs seem like postcards sent from exotic locations or notes hastily scribbled on a bar napkin, that's more or less what they are. On Buffett's 31st album, the singer/songwriter, bestselling author, pilot, and son of a son of a sailor offers alternately wry and sentimental observations on everything from our impending doom ("Waiting for the Next Explosion") and the appeal of Cajun food ("I Will Play for Gumbo") to the ultimate vacation getaway ("Beach House on the Moon") and life's sweet mysteries ("Oysters & Pearls"). Buffett also tries on a couple of intriguing covers, including Bruce Cockburn's pensive "Pacing the Cage," Mose Allison's sly "You Call It Jogging," and Fred Neil's laid-back "Lucky Stars." Thanks to the return of a few long-lost members of his Coral Reefer Band, Beach House on the Moon often recalls Buffett's early albums--cause enough for Parrotheads everywhere to fire up the blender, string up the hammock, and give this one a spin. --Daniel Durchholz more

Being a Music Educator for 30 uears, I need more than "Cheesburgers" and "Margarvitaville to whet my appetite. I love this cd. I own 2, one for my home and one for my car. Jimmy proves he is a troubadour andnot "one hit wonder." He...

- Another step down in quality
Just as Jimmy's albums took a general downturn from the 70's to 80's, and from the 80's to the 90's, this album again shows another step down in quality; further distancing himself farther from the classic music he once wrote in the...

Jimmy Buffett makes a very good attempt to capture the population which may not know his tried and true "Margaritaville" Music. Some of the "Coral Reefers" background musicians showed up on this session which adds a lot to this CD. The...

- cliche'd jimmy
I own a lot of Buffet's Cd's and this was a real disappointment, it was like he said it was time for a new album so he thought of all the current cliches and used them to make songs of them. I was very unhappy, the only one that was...
