It’s time for the November edition of “From Under My Lone Palm”. This month, Justin digs deep into the archives and finds an interview that Jimmy did in 1974:

Ah, the off-season. Don’t it suck? November is here and once again it’s time for Jimmy to disappear to some place warm for the winter. Of course that leaves all of us parrotheads stuck to tough out cabin fever with nothing new from our hero for a few months. So as I was thinking about what to write about this month, I was of course stuck without anything new happening. So with nothing new to work with, I looked through my archives for something old. And old I found. Below you will find a transcript of an interview Jimmy did with some radio station in Massachusetts in what I would guess to be sometime in April or May 1974.

It’s time for the October edition of “From Under My Lone Palm”, a monthly column written by BuffettWorld contributor Justin H. This month’s column focuses on the 30 year anniversary of “You Had To Be There”:

You just never hear anyone say “I like x one of Jimmy’s live albums better.” And as we all know, there is plenty of live Buffett to chose from. So when I decided to write about it this month, a few burning questions hit me instantly: Just what exactly makes the album so magical? Why, eight live albums and counting later, is it still the best?

Introducing a new feature here at BuffettWorld: “From Under My Lone Palm”, a monthly column written by Justin (you may know him as Bamafan).

So the last few weeks I’ve been struggling to connect with a certain member of the opposite sex. While I hopelessly try my hand at love, something I’ve always thought I was nowhere near ready for, I’ve looked for several sources of wisdom. One constant source of that for me has and might always be music. I mean think about it, you can always find a song for anything your going through in life. With that in mind, I started thinking about Buffett music and what that had to do with my great struggle for the love of a particular woman. And as I was enjoying the “Fruitcakes” album, I realized that Jimmy has addressed this issue more than you might think over his career.
