True to character, Jimmy Buffett's quarantine has consisted of playing guitar, practicing French and spending time out on the water with his family in southern California.
"Live Like It's Your Last Day," for instance, was inspired by the singer's past experiences with a 1994 plane crash and 2011 stage fall.
"I've had a couple close calls and I'm still here, so I think I've been living like it could be my last day for a long time," says Buffett, 73."I would just write out of personal experience, and all of a sudden, along comes a pandemic and a lot of other people can . But that's what songs are for, and I think that'll happen with some of these songs."
Buffett recorded the album earlier this year in Key West, Florida, with his Coral Reefer Band, to coincide with a sprawling U.S. tour this spring and summer. The dates were soon postponed due to coronavirus concerns, and his team considered delaying the album's release as well. "Jimmy, however, was the first to shut down that thinking," says Mac McAnally, Buffett's longtime co-writer and bandmate."Since we can’t be there in person in this pandemic, he wants to be there to lift spirits any other way possible. Jimmy’s been making folks smile for several decades and continuing that tradition is much more important than maximizing any marketing plan.
