This album is one that everyone should own. It's a classic, and it's an absolute essential. Jimmy Buffett is the undisputed king of the musical genre he created. Listen, enjoy, and visit his world. You may never want to go home. (Read full review at Amazon)
Good, but get the box set or 'Meet Me In Margaritaville' instead

Jimmy Buffett is a legendary island rock performer. His unique voice and his backing band, The Coral Reefer Band made some of the best music of the 1970s, the 1980s and the 1990s, and he is still making great music even today.

Bar none, this is a FINE offering from Mr. Buffett. My problem is, this is the ONLY album most people who claim to be fans of Jimmy Buffett even own. That in itself is a true shame. Buffett has had much better albums/compilations of his work,... (Read full review at Amazon)

This was the first Buffett CD at age 12, therefore it kinda reeled me into his music. This is a great CD with great songs that are still my favorite today. Every Parrothead has (or should have) this cd.
PHins Up!

Songs You Know by Heart : Jimmy Buffett's Greatest Hit(s) Full Description
Critics have always been singularly unkind to Jimmy Buffett. Or at least they have since the singer became immune to their jabs, commanding a nation of Parrotheads who sell out his shows, snap up his records and books, and eat and drink in his nightclubs in Key West and New Orleans. By now, you've made up your mind as well: To paraphrase Buffett himself from his song "Volcano," you either lava him now, or you lava him not. Songs You Know by Heart is a friendly little best-of collection that features concert perennials such as "Margaritaville," "Fins," "Cheeseburger in Paradise," and the immutable "Why Don't We Get Drunk." If by some chance you've not yet been introduced to Buffett's music, this album is the best way to say hello. --Daniel Durchholz
