I know no one lives forever, but this one... this one hit me harder than most...
‘Margaritaville’ singer Jimmy Buffett, who turned beach-bum life into an empire, dies at 76 (https://apnews.com/article/obituary-jimmy-buffett-4295f355b39237f40663d485c4c6d557)
I've seen him live more times than I can count. His catalogue is so much deeper than most people know... most folks only know two of his songs, and those aren't even in the top ten of his best... When you saw him live, you knew he was cognizant of the fact that the people in the audience were the folks that gave him the life he had and allowed him to live the dream, he gave the impression, rightly or wrongly, that he appreciated that.
Thanks for the good times, Jimmy, it's been a lovely cruise...
