Day 58: February 27: Sending the Old Man Home
"We'll only have the picture books of land and sea and foam."
A pretty one about aging from Jimmy Buffett. James sings back-up and plays guitar but I can't really pick out his voice in the harmonies. If Jimmy still made them like this, I'd still be buying his cd's. But alas, he's become a cartoon. I bet his concerts are a lot of fun though.
This song came out on the same album, although this concert performance is from a good bit later. It's lots of fun. One time when we saw the Tampa Bay Devil Rays play, the grounds crew worked to thids song, complete with the Fins dance. I have no evidence that this song was inspired by Chevy's landshark sketch on SNL, but I wouldn't be the least bit surprised.
