His Commercial Peak.......2006-11-08
By the time "Son of a Son" is released Buffett has become a huge star, headlining big arenas across the country and cultivating his legion of "parrot head" fans. His last album "Changes In Latitudes" was a lot to live up to, and although "Sailor" is not quite as good it does come very close. Buffett managed two more huge hits from this album, the title track and the novelty song "Cheeseburger In Paradise". The album charted in the top 10. Buffett writes every tune on this one and the results for the most part are very good. "Livingston Saturday Night" is an aggressive rocker that was also in the "Rancho Deluxe" and "FM" soundtracks. "Coast Of Marseilles" is a nice lost love song. "Cowboy In The Jungle" ranks right up there with Buffett's best with its parrothead philosophical chorus of "roll with the punches". "Fool Button" is a cool rocker. "Manana" is one of my all time favorite Buffett tracks and the album closer "African Friend" is another winner. The only song that really does not work for me is "The Last Line" which is a bit of a throwaway track. This album would find Jimmy at his commercial peak and things would start going downhill sales wise from here on out until his more recent big country comeback. "Son Of A Son" remains essential Buffett.
"from a bronco ride to a ten foot tide...".......2005-12-23
I like to refer to myself as the son of a son of a car dealer and see how many folks get the connection. It's sad to say, but not many do. The Coast of Marseilles is about as fine a lament for lost love that you will ever find. Cowboy in the Jungle is also great stuff. Can you really get shrimp skin boots? When he sings about being "alone on a midnight passage" he paints the picture perfectly. This is pre "neon Jimmy". Highly advised.
This is where you should start your collection..........2005-12-10
"Coast of Marseilles" is the best Jimmy song ever, I mean ever. He absolutely makes this Keith Sykes tune his own. I was a big "parrothead", but off fallen off the boat in recent years. When you play this CD, you know what "it" was all about when the mania was in the infant stages.
You have probably have already added "Songs You Know by Heart" and "Changes in ..." to your collection, now you should buy this one. Many great tunes followed this disc, but no one disc, song for song, hit grand slam after grand slam.
Before the restaurants and stores, this was really what the party was all about!
Buy this, and a 12 pack, and enjoy the tunes. It is a great place to begin or expand your Jimmy collection.
Not a Buffet fan, but love this CD.......2002-05-25
Although Jimmy Buffett is not one of my favorite musicians in general, I rank this CD as one the the best CD's EVER by any artist. Every track is is an emotional good time. Whether the emotion is upbeat (Cheeseburger In Paradise) or solemn and wise (Cowboy in the Jungle), this collection of music is a must have for anyone.
CLASSIC BUFFETT.......2002-03-27
This is one of JB's albums that is a definite must own!!! Especially for the newer phans that have only phlocked among us recently. I feel that listening to JB's older music will help you realize the scope that he has as a musician, and it will give you more of a perspective on his work as a whole. This is one of the greatest of all his albums to date.
The oh so popular hits by Buffett are here.
Such as "Son of a son of a Sailor(album title)", what an awesome song that just sets the tone for the entire record. It is a
one of his greatest hits of all time, and in so many ways reflects the man himself. "Livingston Saturday Night", which was performed in both films, "FM", and "Rancho Deluxe", by JB himself. The sing a long "Cheeseburger in Paradise" is also here. This is one of my all time favorite songs by Jimmy, probably more of an obvious choice, but a very fun and danceable tune that always gets me going. And always seems to make me hungry for that big hunk of meat.
This is a necessary album for any Buffett phans collection! You won't be disappointed!

Customer Reviews:
One of the recordings of the century!!!.......2005-03-05
If any music has ever moved you to tears or if anything touches your soul at the sound of a silvery high soprano voice then this is it!!! This is indeed a remarkable collection of mozart, liszt and mussorgsky arias. I can only think of a selected few other recordings that transport you to high heavens!!!; Kiri te Kanawa's 1983 mozart aria recording with davis or her solo in the brahms german requiem with solti and joan sutherlands' epic debut and double album recording comes to mind. The voice is faultless, the style regal, the delivery precise, the intonation astonishing, the interpretaion magical and the effect undescribable. This is singing of the highest merit. There is no scooping or straining- the voice flows freely. The voice is recorded at its freshest and the earliest item on this recording comes from her wigmore recital in 1971. A truly remarkable demonstration of technique- the highlight has to go to the items by liszt. I understand that this collection does not include the full recital and it is a great pity and a crime that it is not available. The others are mozart arias that has rarely ever been sung with such beauty and finesse. This has to be ranked along with her recording of cosi fan tutte by klemperer as one of the most cherishable in history. Can't be missed!!! Thank goodness that RCA is re-releasing the mozart arias from this recording but it still does not include some of the concert arias or all the items from any of the other composers mentioned. If recording companies can only get their act together !!!.

This is a wonderful record. The music, mostly mournful in a typically Russian way, enchants ear and heart; the performances are matchless for vocal beauty, expressiveness, and projection of mood, atmosphere, and character, as well as for the incredible quality of the ensemble. DeGaetani, an unusually evocative, versatile artist who tragically died in 1988 at age 56, and Kalish, a splendid pianist equally at home as soloist and in collaboration with singers and instrumentalists, developed an uncanny degree of empathy during their 30-year partnership. Kalish's ability to alternate instantly between leading and supporting is fully displayed in these songs' prominent, often virtuosic piano parts. Together, they bring out the tenderness, simplicity, and sorrow of Rachmaninoff's and Tchaikovsky's moving lamentations and the innocent charm of Mussorgsky's "Nursery" songs without condescending to their childish humor. --Edith Eisler
Customer Reviews:
Russian Intimacy.......2002-09-09
Another brilliant rendition by the extremely sensitive and artistic duo of De Gaetani and Kalish. Jan DeGaetani especially gives these Russian favourites her gorgeous trademark intimacy; leaving us with a refreshing treatment of Russian repetoire.

Buffett caught a major wave on his commercial breakthrough, Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes, and he rode it straight through the follow-up, Son of a Son of a Sailor. Buffett posits himself as a lovable rogue in the semiautobiographical title track, recounts a party out of bounds on "Fool Button" and delineates the perfect meal on "Cheeseburger in Paradise." Other songs find him checking in from a variety of ports of call, including Aruba ("African Friend"), Paraguay ("Cowboy in the Jungle"), somewhere in the Caribbean ("Mañana") and even Montana ("Livingston Saturday Night").

Unmatched musicality!.......2004-02-16
I grew up listening to this album long before the age of the CD, and I'm delighted to see it is now available through that more durable medium. This album from the late fifties was recorded early in the long history of the Deller Consort--an extraordinary ensemble of bass, baritone, tenor, counter tenor (Alfred Deller himself), and two sopranos. Every one of these soloists is an outstanding musician in his/her own right, and together they create music that is virtually unmatched. They are, of course, aided by Ralph Vaughan Williams' gorgeous settings of traditional British folk songs. In addition to the many a cappella choral renditions, this album also includes a number of solos for counter tenor and lute, which are beautifully performed by Deller.
