Jimmy Buffett   11/03/1983

Austin City Limits, Austin, TX
Media NTSC DVD   1 disc
Notes Fantastic pro-shot DVD. This show comes from CMT?s ?Best of Austin City Limits? TV program. There is some confusion over the actual date, even on the PBS website. From what I can piece together the show was actually recorded on 03/11/83, but not aired until 1984. To confuse the issue the announcer who introduces this ?Best Of? show says it happened in 1984.
There are even issues with song titles! What is without doubt the track ?Fins? is billed by PBS as ?Land Shark? (no doubt based on Jimmy?s intro to the song). And Jimmy himself tells the audience that the song ?Migration? is called ?I Gotta Caribbean Soul I Can Barely Control And Some Texas Hidden In My Heart? (bit long for an album jacket, huh?!!). Despite these few inconsistencies this is a great show! It is obviously taped from TV so there is some minor background hum and the picture is just a touch grainy, but the sound is great and overall it is a fantastic watch. As my wife says, ?This is a great show, especially as it goes back to before Jimmy got too full of himself?!! Some laid back chat and nice honest versions of many of his major hits! And Jimmy still has (most of) his hair!!
