From “He Went to Paris” and “Banana Republics” to the Parrothead anthem “Margaritaville”
, boat drinks, and, yes, the Margaritaville restaurant chain, has written some truly exceptional songs steeped in country, folk, rock, and even reggae. While nearly everyone knows the songs that make up what Buffet fans refer to as, “The Big 8,” there’s so much more to his catalog, from story-songs about gas-station holdups and reflections on bad hangovers to country collabs that he made his own. These are the chief Parrothead’s 15 essentials.
title track of the album that also gave us “Margaritaville” mines a similar pop-calypso feel, but it’s less melancholy than the far bigger hit. There’s still plenty of drinking and much rueful longing over the adventures of the previous year. But while the narrator of “Margaritaville” seems a bit lost, this Buffett is more at peace with his escapades and run-ins, and its key line — “If we couldn’t laugh, we would all go insane” — deftly summed up the appeal of Buffett’s music and image.
