Summary: Just makes you happy
Comment: You can't help but smile and get in a good mood listening and singing along.
Customer Rating:
Summary: An absolute essential!
Comment: This album is one that everyone should own. It's a classic, and it's an absolute essential. Jimmy Buffett is the undisputed king of the musical genre he created. Listen, enjoy, and visit his world. You may never want to go home.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Good, but get the box set or 'Meet Me In Margaritaville' instead
Comment: Jimmy Buffett is a legendary island rock performer. His unique voice and his backing band, The Coral Reefer Band made some of the best music of the 1970s, the 1980s and the 1990s, and he is still making great music even today.
Buffett has numerous compilations released, and this is, hands down, the best single disc collection on the market. All of the songs the really casual Parrothead will ever need are here. 'Margaritaville,' 'Cheeseburger In Paradise,' 'Come Monday' and 'Volcano' all appear on this 1985 set.
And, the sound quality is superb!
However, I can't recommend this for the average Parrothead. As a longtime Parrothead myself, I think there should be much more material here. For example, how come we don't have an album track like 'African Friend' here? That's one of the best songs from the 1978 'Son Of A Son Of A Sailor' record.
So I am warning you: If you are a true Parrothead, you'll definitely want more Buffett. My advice would be to get the box set 'Boats, Beaches, Bars & Ballads,' from 1992 or 2003's 'Meet Me In Margaritaville: The Ultimate Collection.' That's my advice.
But if you are a new Parrothead just looking for a cheap, nice entry point, than definitely check this out. Overall, this is highly recommended for the casual Parrothead.
Recommended for the casual Parrothead.

Summary: Love It...But I Have A Complaint
Comment: Bar none, this is a FINE offering from Mr. Buffett. My problem is, this is the ONLY album most people who claim to be fans of Jimmy Buffett even own. That in itself is a true shame. Buffett has had much better albums/compilations of his work, but SONGS was still the first to put them all together in a non-live package. One can't argue with the quality since these are all Buffett classics that stand the test of time. Pure summer fun.

Summary: Great CD For Parrotheads In Traning :P
Comment: This was the first Buffett CD at age 12, therefore it kinda reeled me into his music. This is a great CD with great songs that are still my favorite today. Every Parrothead has (or should have) this cd.
PHins Up!
