I guess this is the death of a popular poet

It’s a tough one.
“And I wanna be there
I wanna go back down and die beside the sea there
With a tin cup for a chalice, fill it up with good red wine
And I'm a chewin' on a honeysuckle vine”

A buddy of mine once "borrowed" one of Jimmy's jet skis for an afternoon on the water somewhere in Florida. Might have been Key West, might have been Tampa, I don't remember which.

This one hurts. I'm going to be Hawaiian shirts at work all week as is proper.

A great one. My high school math teacher HATED him - who writes a song about a cheeseburger?
My neighbors growing up introduced us to Jimmy in the early 90’s. They drank Beefeater gin, Rolling Rock and Clearly Canadian- there was a ready supply at their house at all times. Before I bought CD’s, my aunt taped Beaches, Boats, Bars & Ballads for my birthday. I didn’t know until years later that she skipped the songs that she thought were ‘inappropriate’.
Saw him twice at Jazzfest- always intended to go to a full concert, but I never made it.
This might have ruined my weekend

The horror. A songwriter wrote lyrics that rhymed.
Post some of your work, be sure and post the good stuff.

I remember Joe telling me how his oldest and Jimmy’s daughter Savannah were hanging out as 4-5 year olds.
Joe’s oldest would’ve been about that age at the the time.
Joe was a great guy and a talented musician, song writer. We would just be bumming around at night doing whatever, and he’d look at me and say, I just wrote a song, next day or so we were working on it. Another who went way too soon.

Spooner's well taken care of, though

His band actually ran out of weed and tried to hustle some off of us when we were teens in biloxi, but we were like 15 and didn’t really smoke much. (I guess we looked like heads)
Saw him many times. The bear was my favorite song.
If you want a true story, if any of you remember the giant old wooden 4 mast ship in mobile bay that you could see from the 1-10 bridge for years sticking up from the marsh grass, that was his grandfathers and it was scuttled on purpose. From the song “son of a son of sailor”

No musician will ever make more money with less talent in the history of music. He sounded like a mediocre house/cover band that you could find at any small town bar.
Im just shocked he could commercialize so successfully a segment of 55-80 year old hippy redneck white trash. The type of people that don’t like rock music, don’t like country music, but somehow have an ear for generic easy listening garbage.
And his best song, Pirate looks at 40, was covered 5000x better by Dave Matthews and Jack Johnson.

A jingle writer who hit it big with a song.
