Personnel: Jimmy Buffett (vocals, guitar); Peter Mayer, Mac McAnally (vocals, guitar); Jim Mayer (vocals, bass); Brie Howard (vocals, percussion); Greg "Fingers" Taylor (harmonica); Zachary Richard (accordion); Michael Utley, Jay Oliver (keyboards); Robert Greenidge, Savannah Jane Buffett, Ralph McDonald (percussion); Mary Harris, Dena Iverson, Katherine Maisnik (background vocals). Recorded at the Lakewood Ampitheatre, Atlanta, Georgia on August 3-4, 1990 and the Riverbend Ampitheatre, Cincinnati, Ohio on August 7-8, 1990. Recorded during the summer of 1990, FEEDING FRENZY presents the famously laid-back island-hopper Jimmy Buffett in concert, performing many of his signature tunes. In addition to a semi-family-friendly version of "Why Don't We Get Drunk (and Screw)," here re-titled "A Love Song (From a Different Point of View)," Buffett delights his Parrothead audience with such carefree classics as "Cheeseburger in Paradise" and "Margaritaville." By 1990s Feeding Frenzy, Jimmy Buffett enjoyed a nationwide following of "Parrotheads," fanatics who ate up his easygoing Caribbean pirate music and washed it down with the proverbial margarita that's always an arm's length away in Buffett's music. With his summer tours a perennial success, a veritable empire of merchandise and watering holes, and a successful second career as an author, Buffett had come a long way since You Had to be There, his 1978 live album. However, somewhere between the blender and the tumbler, Buffett's songwriting went a little flat, and this is obvious with Frenzy, which focuses a bit too much on later-career moments ("You'll Never Work in Dis Bidness Again," "Honey Do") that just aren't as strong as his signature material, even if they're written in -- or under the influence of -- the same spirit. Luckily, Buffett is still a wonderful host. He cracks wise and heaps praise on his fans, and can still make each one of them feel like it's just Jimmy telling stories in a bar. The sun-kissed singalong "One Particular Harbor" is a standout, as is the gooey, juicy goodness of "Cheeseburger in Paradise," the gloriously goofy, quintessentially American song to which even the most ardent hipster has to hum along. The tasteful, wistful "Pirate Looks at Forty" also shines. In the end, it's not really about the music, but how the music makes people feel. As Buffett says with true conviction during the intro to "Come Monday," "I've never won an award for any music I've written, but I don't really care when I have fans like Parrotheads." In an age when the concert industry has been overtaken by avarice, it's refreshing to find that Jimmy Buffett is still helping people get a good buzz on. ~ Johnny Loftus Jimmy Buffett Feeding Frenzy Songs Feeding Frenzy Music Review Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars)   Best Live Album This is absolutely my favorite Buffett album of all time.

The best of times This was the heyday for Parrot Heads. An awesome album to listen to. Jimmy Buffett was singing all his best songs. I love the live versions of "One Particular Harbor" and "Volcano". He mentions the SF Bay area in "Come Monday" where I am from. I love that! Submitted by Herb (San Francisco, CA, USA) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No

Feeding Frenzy
$6.75 GREATEST HITS spans the length of Janis Joplin's recording career, and features songs recorded with each of her three bands--Big Brother & The Holding Co., the Kozmic Blues Band, and the Full Tilt Boogie Band. Producers: Paul Rothchild, Bob Shad, John Simon, Gabriel Mekler. Reissue producer: Bob Irwin. Originally released on Columbia (32168). Includes liner notes by Jaan Uhelszki.

A solid, if skimpy, ten-track best-of that gathers the most important songs from Janis Joplin's solo career, as well as her stint with Big Brother & the Holding Company. The compilation 18 Essential Songs offers a wider selection, but does not include the original version of "Me and Bobby McGee," which makes Greatest Hits the better purchase for those who only want one Janis Joplin disc, even if it isn't definitive. ~ Steve Huey Drawing inspiration from Bessie Smith and Odetta, Joplin developed a brash, uncompromising ...
