Jimmy Buffett Down To Earth / High Cumberland Jubilee

A nice treat for serious "parrotheads" and anyone that can appreciate a fun approach to music. This 2 CD collection offers a rare look at Buffett's early recordings with Barnaby, with both albums highlighting the absolute best of his early material. Down To Earth was originally released by Barnaby in 1972, and features early Buffett essentials such as "The Christian?," "Truckstop Salvation" and "Ellis Dee."

Originally released in 1972, High Cumberland Jubilee was Buffett's second release under Barnaby. Though the album was originally "lost" by the record label, it was subsequently found and released after Buffett's popularity exploded. And it's a good thing because it features some of Buffett's best early material such as "God Don't Own a Car," Livingston's Gone to Texas" and "High Cumberland Jubilee / Comin' Down Slow." His songwriting collaboration with Buzz Carson help make this album a classic for Jimmy Buffett.
