Disco de Jimmy Buffett: “Live in Mansfield, Ma”

I'm giving this album five stars because I'll never give any of Jimmy's albums anything less just for all the fun and pleasure he's given me over the years. But to tell you the truth I bought this CD on the same day I bought Bill Jabanoski's "The Key West Party CD" and though I hate to admit it Jimmy since I've been a parrothead for so long, when I go for a CD it's always Roadkill Bill's CD I put on instead of this one or the other two live ones you've released recently and the other new one, which I just bought. It's always great to hear Jimmy live, if you've never gone to a parrothead phlocking DEFINITELY go see him, but I start to get the feeling that he is a great performer who has just run out of ideas and is just releasing one live CD after another knowing that people like me will buy them all. Its a little disappointing that he just seems to be going through the motions for the money now like when he played that Tyco toga party.

I guess you can't expect anyone to be great for ever, but right now your much better off buying one of Jimmy's old CDs or Bill Jabanoski's "The Key West Party CD" or his live "Beachbum Bootleg" than this CD. He's more like Jimmy used to be, hungry and wild and fun. Probably because he isn't a millionaire but still just a musician from Key West.

But PS -- I still love you Jimmy. Thanks for all the fun you've given me over the last fifteen years and I'll be there the next time you play here. (Although could you lower the ticket prices a little)

These are great recordings like all live albums. They need to be listened to as is. Not judged for what you want, but for what was given. I own all of these and each one is a flash back to great proformance by a great proformer of are time. You rarely see a tour with multiple live albums to it. You can see how he treats each crowd as if they where his own home town crowd. Keep it up Jimmy and love the live albums.
