Jimmy Buffet is a many-talented person and it is no wonder that Buffett wrote the sound-track for, co-produced and acted in the 2006 film Hoot, which has become a critical and commercial blunder.

Famed musician Jimmy Buffet will release a charming fable for all ages at the end of 2008. The book will tell us about the exciting adventure of Rumpy, a Manhattan pig. Jimmy got the inspiration to write the book of such a kind from a friend of his who really keeps a pig in Manhattan. According to Jimmy, this is going to be a funny story of family relationships displayed through the life of the family of pigs.

I have recently enjoyed Jimmy Buffet’s great performance, where he sang “No woman, no cry,” a Bob Marley song, and a few other world-famous hits. I have never seen Jimmy Buffet live, only on TV. He looked so natural and it seemed performing was fun for him. It was just amazing. He was singing, laughing, talking to the audience and the audience were singing with him.
