About Jimmy Buffett

If someone who saw Jimmy Buffett during the early days of his career in 1972 and was plucked from the past and deposited in the midst of a modern-day Jimmy Buffett concert, that person's jaw would drop lower than Key West. Just as the Grateful Dead have their core following of Deadheads, Jimmy Buffett's own loyal troops, called "Parrot Heads" are among the most colorful in pop history. Jimmy Buffett: Not just a singer, but a cultural icon.

How did it happen? Buffett, born Dec. 25, 1946, in Pascagoula, Mississippi, had humble but well-educated beginnings, graduating from the University of Southern Mississippi with a degree in history and journalism and a hankering to establish himself as a country singer. He moved to Nashville by the end of the '60s and recorded two albums, but neither sold, and his career floundered. Next stop: Miami, where an expected job didn't materialize--after which a near-broke Buffett took buddy Jerry Jeff Walker's advice and moved south to Key West.

Thereafter, Jimmy Buffett's career swiftly kicked into gear. The 1973 album instantly established Buffett's redoubtable persona: A droopy-eyed, too-pleasant-to-be-smarmy Buffett was beaming barefoot atop a crate of Florida lobsters. With liner notes by local literary fixture Tom McGuane and the now-classic "Why Don't We Get Drunk" credited to one "Marvin Gardens," Jimmy Buffett had produced a warm album of colorful story-songs that showed equal traces of humor, sentiment, and a keen grasp of Americana. With 1974's "Come Monday," Buffett produced his first hit single; his next, 1977's "Margaritaville," took him to the top 10 and gave him his first platinum album, Changes in Lattitude, Changes in Attitude.

In one sense, Jimmy Buffett enjoyed his peak record-selling years between 1977-79: He had three additional top 40 hits as well as one platinum and two gold including You Had To Be There: Jimmy Buffet In Concert albums in that time span. Though he'd again nab platinum honors with 1985's compilation, by then he'd become much more than a mere record-seller. For his growing legion of fans, Buffett was an annual summer concert tradition in the same sense that the Beach Boys were; his records may not have been going quadruple platinum, but attendance at his concerts was booming, Jimmy Buffett tickets were in high demand and he quickly became a regular top-grossing artist. At the same time, Buffett's creative juices were flowing in several other directions as well: He was an entrepreneur (he'd opened two retail operations, the Margaritaville Store & Cafe, first in Key West, then New Orleans); a crusader (he's been instrumental in Florida conservationists' efforts to save the manatee); a sailor (he'd bought a boat with his first big royalty check); a pilot (he flies his own single-engine amphibian plane); a record company head (he launched Margaritaville Records in 1992); and an author of both bestsellers Where Is Joe Merchant? and Tales From Margaritaville and children?s' books The Jolly Mon and Trouble Dolls, co-written with his young daughter.

And the Parrot Heads continue to increase in number: Jimmy Buffett continues to make headlines as one of the biggest concert draws when he tours making Jimmy Buffett tickets hard to come by. "What gets so surreal to me is that I figured this was going to peak some time ago," he told a reporter. "I thought everybody would start going to somebody else's shows. But it hasn't happened."
