How great are the broadcasts on Radio Margaritaville of Jimmy Buffett concerts in January and February for us snow birds? Nothing staves off the cabin fever like a little “Come Monday” on a cold northern night. Especially when he is playing southern locals, talking (and singing) about the great weather. If you are into bootleg recordings, I highly suggest picking up the audio to the “Live by The Bay” video from 8/17/85. Really takes you back to Jimmy’s heyday when he was wild and the crowds were even more wild. Also, for some other recordings to get you through the winter I suggest getting Live at the Record Plant and the Exit Inn, both from the early 70’s. The Record Plant show is just hysterical. You will laugh all the way through it, the banter between songs is unreal. Jimmy sounds pretty high and drunk, as well as Jerry Jeff Walker and the rest of the “band” that night. Come February or March, that gets a lot of playtime on my headphones passing the long end of winter in Ohio. So, here is to hoping you get to catch some of the JB concert on Radio Margaritaville this winter with a nice cold rum drink and warm thoughts in your mind.
P.S. Go hang around the forums at Buffettnews.com and you can get a lot of different bootlegs to fit your Buffett needs.
