A fitting tribute, and a tasty one. I grew up on Buffett, Dad knew him from his sailor days in the 70s. But what stands out in my mind is how Margaritaville treated its employees here in New Orleans after Katrina. Before FEMA cut any check, everyone who worked at the Margaritaville in the Quarter had a couple grand in their bank accounts, and the guarantee that if they ended up somewhere with a Margaritaville location, they automatically had a job again. A lot of folks from that place went to Florida for that reason, and because so many had nothing, the Margaritaville gave them anything they could use from the gift shop on top of it. Branded stuff, but still, clothes. All of that was at Jimmy Buffett's insistence. He also drew attention to the oil spill on the Gulf Coast when few other artists were talking about Deepwater Horizon. He may have been beloved in the Keys, but NOLA knew him as one of our own.

Just to add on to this amazing contributions list, Jimmy Buffett saved the manatee! His Save the Manatee and Adopt-a-Mantee programs is where the vast majority of manatee conservation funding comes from. Manatees are doing so much better now than before the 80s when he started it.

Didn't make it to many of his concerts but enjoyed the ones I did see. My pirate's hat off to you, Jimmy, RIP.

Great tribute episode Greg! I grew up on Jimmy courtesy of my parents, when I was 13 I listened to his albums while falling asleep. Once I hit college I spent summers in the Keys and Jimmy was my audio best friend down there. He’s always been one of my favorites, and I narrowly missed seeing him live in Charleston. I’ll always think of him when sipping on a daiquiri or margarita. As for my favorite Jimmy song, top picks are “Trying to Reason with Hurricane Season”, “La Vie Dansante”, and “A Pirate Looks at Forty”, but “Creola” stands above the rest. My parents named their first cat after that song. She was a beloved companion and traveled around the world with them before becoming my brother and I’s first furry friend. Fins up Jimmy, we’ll keep the party going.

This is just a great summer highball.

Great episode, Jimmy was a man of the times, and one of the very few celebrity deaths that made me sad. Quick note: the Lime in the Coconut looks like a Caribeno, and according to my Smuggler's Cove book, you're supposed to use pot still rum (or gin!). It also uses 1/4 oz of rich demerara syrup. Last time I made it, I think the rum didn't stand out, but it was super refreshing...but if you use a pot still, it might shine through a little more. My deep cut favorite is tied between Barometer Soup, Migration, and super deep cut, Domino College

I wonder whether the "Lime in the Coconut" would be better with some cream of coconut instead of the simple syrup? It might add the sweetness you mentioned the drink needing while punching the coconut flavour up a bit more.

Great episode (RIP Jimmy) I'm glad they sent you that 12yr McCoy. If you can find it, look for The Real McCoy 14yr LTD (or Doorly's 14yr LTD) both come from Foursquare Distillery (Barbados) and are worth their weight in gold. You can't ever go wrong with juice from Foursquare, even their 5 year handle, which retails here for about $30 is fantastic. With the Rum & Coconut Water (or sometimes Gin & Coconut Water) you have a very classic 'refresher' in Jamaica, Bahamas, and other places in the Caribbean. If you do a youtube search for either term you'll find some old versions going back at least to the early 1930s, possibly the 1920s. It's better with a funky Jamaican rum, or a beefier Barbados rum, either way it's amazing on a hot day.

I have been thinking about Inncommunicado from Coconut Telegraph, especially right when it happened. Especially with the second verse being about grieving a parasocial relationship with the idea of John Wayne. Edit: My favorite deep cuts though are Fool Button from Son of a Son of a Sailor, Landfall from Changes in Latitudes..., and The Wino and I Know from Living and Dying in 3/4 Time.

The Wino and I Know is probably tied for my favorite Jimmy track, right up there with Tin Cup Chalice.

Legend has it that the Margarita was a drink prepared in a bar called Hussong’s in Ensenada, BC

I've been buying the key west lime juice for my margaritaville frozen concoction maker (R). If you in a hurry, Stinky Gringo from the bottle does nicely, and it's in a plastic bottle so it won't break if you drop it in the boat.

"ice went into my eye. it's kinda refreshing!" that's one way to look at it

9:24 i was born in 2000 and I grew up with The Flintstones on boomerang. That being said, I remember way more of the 2 live action movies than I do the actual show.

I was in the 2nd line. We just happened to be on the way to the airport when the news broke. Landed at 2pm and headed right to Capt Tony's for the 5:00 moment of silence. Key West never felt so much like home as that trip

I would have to go with either the great peanut butter conspiracy or he went to Paris. Honestly I have white sports coat and a pink crustacean etched into my childhood. But also I haven’t seen someone get mad about fins coming on either at a bar or at a party. Rest in paradise Jimmy and thank you for all the fond memories.

The last one reminded me of the fact that I recently made a Bay Breeze but using vodka sounded kinda boring so I modified it by turning it into a Jamaica Bay Breeze (if that's a thing). What I did was: Chilled my glassware by putting it in the freezer and filled the shaker partially with ice. Thought about 40ml would be enough and wound up splitting the base, as Jamaican Rum would be too funky and, I couldn't think of a Rum I had in my possession that would have the right amount of funk. So I split it into 10ml of Plantation Jamaican Rum (Xaymaca Special Dry) and 30ml of a softer rum, in this case Pampero Aniversario. Added 30ml of pineapple juice (unsweetened) and 90 ml of cranberry juice (unsweetened). I shook it wel, poured into a chilled glass filled with ice and, garnished with a few pieces of pineapple and a lime wheel. I remade it later with 2 dashes of Angustora Bitters added to the mix and I think that still added to it without substracting anything.

I don’t know why, but, in this episode, you reminded me of John Cusack waxing poetic about Jimmy Buffet. I very much approve. I spent Labor Day remembering all the happy moments in my life listening to Jimmy’s music. I also really enjoyed his biography “A Pirate looks at 50.” Worth a read.
