Country music's infatuation with the puka-shell rock of Jimmy Buffett has been one of the genre's less fortunate indulgences. Most of Nashville's hat acts do little more than dip their toe in the water and do nothing to build upon Buffett's signature sounds. That's why License to Chill, which features a plethora of Music City guests (Alan Jackson, Kenny Chesney, Clint Black, George Strait, Martina McBride, Toby Keith) along with Bill Withers and Nanci Griffith, seems like a bad idea. But the album, on which the Key West hedonist performs his favorite "bar gig" songs, as he calls them, often delights. As someone who began his songwriting career in Nashville (and who's also recorded more than half his albums there), Buffett isn't just slumming, as his choice of covers (from such writers as Guy Clark, John Hiatt, Hank Williams, and Jerry Garcia) proves. What could have been little more than a lark, then, ends up being a showcase for Buffett the serious songwriter and song finder. Although he does indulge in the occasional beach-minded thong-writing, Chill is a surprisingly satisfying album aimed less at the Parrothead crowd and more toward an audience who remembers the Buffett of 30 years ago, a man who struggled to make his mark among Nashville's most revered tunesmiths. --Alanna Nash

Average Customer Rating: 4.0 out of 5
1) Least Fav. Buffett CD [Rating: 2 out of 5]
Everyone has their "bad CD", and in MY opinion, this CD is just too twangy and country. I love you Jimmy, but I bought this CD and was not too impressed, so I traded it in for another CD. :( But I have friends who really like this CD, so it is really hit or miss.2) Not received [Rating: 1 out of 5]
I still have not received this item. It needs to be usps to Becky FreemanP O Box 170 Hanceville, Al 350773) In the car for a month now! [Rating: 5 out of 5]
I love this CD.... when I get tired of all the rest Jimmy goes in and stays in for days!!4) Buffett & Country [Rating: 4 out of 5]
A little too country for me but you gotta love Martina McBride. Worth the price and you will find yourself singing along.5) license to chill [Rating: 2 out of 5]
a couple of the songs are dynamite but the balance of them are very average..I expected better
