Jimmy’s Note:
This album is dedicated to The Coral Reefer Band. Boys it’s been a long time comin. – Popps
I would like to thank Mike Wheeler, Phil Massey, Rick Holcomb, Clint Gilbert & Steve Vaughn who take care of the Day-to-Day work which enables us to work with ease. Cindy Johnson and Jeri Jenkins of Home at last in Miami for Food & Shelter. Don Light & Herb Belkin; Frank Mulvey for a great cover design. Stan Goldsten, and the people at Mauua. And to everyone who enjoys listening to my music as much as I enjoy playing it. I guess that covers it till next time.
– Jimmy Buffett aboard the Eudaurm. Coconut Grove, Florida. December 20th, 1976
