Editorial Review:
When Jimmy Buffett eventually becomes the subject of a college course--and given his enduring popularity as a singer-songwriter and author, you know he will someday--here's what'll be on the final exam. Boats, Beaches, Bars & Ballads is so named because the four-CD collection divides Buffett's collected works among those categories, giving each disc a theme. From early classics such as "Biloxi" and "Come Monday" to more recent fare known only by the Parrothead cognoscenti, this set is the perfect accompaniment to a cool drink and a hammock on a summer afternoon. What kind of cool drink? Well, that'll be on the final, too. --Daniel Durchholz
Boats, Beaches, Bars & Ballads Reviews:
Great CD's 
2007-12-28 - I bought this as a replacement for the ones my husband already had and used until they no longer sounded like CD's rather old 8-track tapes. Thank you very much for having the 4-CD set. He really liked them.
Jimmy Buffett's best! 
2007-11-21 - Love this product! I bought it after I had borrowed it from my boyfriend. I purchased it for my father who had come out of the hospital. It lifted our spirits and is just some really great listening music. I highly recommend it!
Classic Buffett 
2007-11-10 - Great set of CDs. Glad to get them in my collection. Great delivery time.
my favorite boxed set 
2007-08-11 - I bought this boxed set over 10 years ago in high school and have easily listened to these cds more than any others in my 400 cd collection. While there are a handful of forgettable songs, there are too many good ones to name. These discs never fail to leave me feeling lighthearted. Boats, Bars, Beaches, and Ballads is the perfect place to start if you're interested in Buffett. I went on to buy every cd he put out after getting hooked.
kind of a disappointment 
2007-08-04 - while the songs are great, and the collection contains some titles that are seldom heard, the arrangements are not as full-bodied in sound as his more recent music.
