The CD

I just can’t stop reading and thinking about Buffet Hotel CD that was just released earlier in December. There’s just something different about it compared to many of the other Buffett pieces. The CD has been getting good reviews. An Arizona reviewer states that it’s a good soundtrack for anyone who wants to enjoy a warm drink on the porch. Some of us will obviously have to wait a few more months before we can get out on the porch for real, but you’ll get to hear the music already. I think the mastery of this album is the addition of the African folk rhythms and some of the new instrumentation that Jimmy has added for this project. I thought it was just going to be a basic collection of tunes from his tours of the last year or two. But no! It came out as an inventive and new style of music that is interesting but close enough to the normal as to avoid being jarring. This is such fun, so hopefully we’ll be able to hear more of this kind of music in the future projects that he’s planning out!
