New album rumors??

[bananaman]

I could swear I heard something on RM about a new album. Am I going crazy? Pretty sure they're not talking about Encores. Just curious.

[urlcenter]

There is a new Christmas album called A Coral Reefer Christmas which features different members of the band including Jimmy performing various Christmas tunes.

or its that one particular harbor acoustic live album (minus livin' it up) that we were hearing about several months back.

I heard one of the RM DJs call Buffet Hotel "Jimmy's new album" yesterday.

It is, isn't? His latest anyway, in regards to studio records. I believe I listened to the completely underwhelming Encores a total of once and then filed it away.

To each his own I guess. I love that CD.

I do remember Jimmy saying something about a live cd and I thought it had something to do with the shows in Bora Bora at Bloody Mary's???

It has it's redeeming moments but they're few and far between, the talking ruins most of the record for me. You Had To Be There remains my favorite live Buffett album.

do we really need another live album?

do we really need another live album?

If it's something unique like an entire album performed live at least that's something different. Otherwise, all the fans that trade his concerts is an indication there's an audience for another live record. That's what started the whole Live In... series, was it not? The demand for more live recordings?

Was it people wanting more live recordings or the thrill of having the concert you went to?

Perhaps a little of both. For me, I bought some of those Live In... CDs to hear live versions of some song he might not play that often. When I heard him massacre This Hotel Room on one of them, that was enough for me. If he was going to sing a song he hadn't done in a while, it seems like he would have at least rehearsed it first. I love Buffett's ad libs as much as the next person but it wasn't enough to save that particular version of This Hotel Room.

What I'd really love to see is the release of some of his 70s concerts and/or a DVD of his first appearance on Austin City Limits.

Enjoyed Jimmy's new song on the new Christmas album playing on RadioMargaritaville. Tried to buy it in Las Vegas at Margaritaville, but it was sold out. Enjoyed hearing Robert, Mac and Ralph playing some of those Christmas tunes, even in October.

I'm sick of live albums too. He'll never top the first three imo. The last bunch of live albums just seemed like a quick and sure cha ching thing!
I remember that version of This Hotel Room and if I remember correctly he repeated one of the verses. He butcher's Death of an Unpopular Poets on "Encores"...left out a whole verse.
His voice sounds kinda shot too but since every song is an Encore I guess I should expect that. Doesn't mean I like it though.

That's why hanging out over in Concert Trading is so much fun. Lots of 70s stuff around and often gets more of my playtime than recent stuff.

Livin' It Up wasn't even performed was it? So it's not an entire album.

I'll tell you what "live" album I'd like Jimmy to put out...problem is that it would require a mini off-season tour....6 or 10 dates

I'd love to see him setup a mini acoustical tour featuring many of the GREAT older numbers that never get played on the full blown tour. I think these songs are what made many of his earlier albums great. The mini tour could hit more of the intimate settings rather than the big pavallions. A live release from this tour would be something to hear since it would include those very underplayed gems.

Oh well... I guess I can dream

That would be great, especially if "Fingers" was involved. They could even bring ol' Jerry Jeff along if they liked. I wouldn't complain.

Amen! Seems like I've checked the Austin City Limits website before to seek out this show and found nothing. Nada.

Let's start an "email ACL and ask for Buffett on DVD" movement.
