OH NOW YOU"VE DONE IT! Reading the posts of OPH on this and several other threads recently, I can tell you that I don not agree with him on most things. HOWEVER- to insult Jimmy Buffet shows your complete disregard for true talent. Jimmy Buffet is the best music to listen to in almost any situation.

Buffet is what's playing over the loudspeakers right now in Purgatory. Britney Spears, N'Sync, et al are in the rotation in Hell, but Buffet is Purgatory.

I'll say this, though: Buffet is a marketing genius. He's marketed the same 3 chords and repackaged that tired Southern Mullet theme to Parrotheads for years now so successfully that's he's got his own g-dam PBY.

Buffet's a TV jingle. 1-800-54-GIANT has more musical integrity than Buffet's entire catalog.
