I'm familiar with the name, but don't know his music. Since I usually go though music stores looking at all types of music, I believe I seen this name on a couple of fliped CDs. Mind you they were flipped only because I don't know their brand of music. Don't know how a drunk Carribean rock-n-roll would sound, usually songs with beer & drunks go with country. Our ol' mate Slim Dusty (RIP) was a gem as doing this stuff.
I wonder if Jimmy Buffet has any connection with our music store here in Australia - "JB HI-FI". I just assumed they were Australian, but in these times of confusion, everyone's just about foreign. They seem to get a good deal of music & have imported CDs (which are usually better - cause there's a diverse range of albums, particularly old stuff, which go onto CD & are never released here through distributers). Occasionally, JB would get some good imported stuff worth having.
