Description Here's another tribute I made, it is a tribute to the American musician, singer-songwriter, author and businessman Jimmy Buffett. He was best known for his tropical themed rock music, which often portrayed a lifestyle described as "island escapism". Buffett recorded hit songs known as "The Big 8" inlcuded "Come Monday" (1974), "Fins" (1979), "Volcano" (1979), "A Pirate Looks at Forty" (1974), "Cheeseburger in Paradise" (1978), "Why Don't We Get Drunk" (1973), "Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes" (1977) and of course "Margaritaville" (1977). Buffett also formed the Coral Reefer Band in 1975. Out of the over 30 albums he released, eight were certified gold and nine are certified platinum or multiplatinum, which in total, Buffett sold over 20 million albums. Buffett also incorporated the "island escapism" lifestyle of his music into several business ventures including resaurant chains including Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville and the now defunct Cheeseburger in Paradise restaurant chain, also with ventures in hotels, casinos, liquor, and retirement communities. Buffett became one of the world's richest musicians, having a net worth of $1 billion and was also a bestselling author. Buffett's devoted fanbase, which are composed mostly of baby boomers, are known as "Parrotheads".
