C/D was released yesterday. "Take the Weather With You".
Great C/D. I've heard it several times on Sirius. There is also a tribute to New Orleans on the disk. I'll have favorite song line quotes in a few days.

I like Cinco de Mayo in Memphis; I'm disappointed that it, & most of the songs, weren't even partially written by Jimmy.

Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On was a particularly poignant song. That was the Katrina song, and I can't get it out of my head.
I like Jimmy's earlier work more, but there are certain songs on each new album that really hit home. Certain songs reach me in a very particular way...Oysters and Pearls first among them. While there are a few songs there you can have, most of them are quite good.

Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On...
Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On
(Jimmy Buffett and Matt Betton) I bought a cheap watch from a crazy man Floating down canal It doesn't use numbers or moving hands It always just says now Now you may be thinking that I was had But this watch is never wrong And If I have trouble the warranty said Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On And it rained, It was nothing really new And it blew, we've seen all that before And it poured, the Earth began to strain Pontchartrain leaking through the door, tides at war If a hurricane doesn't leave you dead It will make you strong Don't try to explain it just nod your head Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On [Guitar Solo] And it rained, It was nothing really new And it blew, seen all that before And it poured, the Earth began to strain Pontchartrain buried the 9th Ward to the 2nd floor According to my watch the time is now Past is dead and gone Don't try to shake it just nod your head Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On Don't try to shake it just bow your head Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On

I like this release. All the songs flow well and there is no song that I feel like skipping. I heard an interview that JB did about the songs. He stated that on some songs both an upright and standard electric base was used.
I think it is also cool that Mark Knophler appears on Whoop dee do. A song that Knophler wrote.
