Editorial Review:
Amazon.com essential recording:
Critics have always been singularly unkind to Jimmy Buffett. Or at least they have since the singer became immune to their jabs, commanding a nation of Parrotheads who sell out his shows, snap up his records and books, and eat and drink in his nightclubs in Key West and New Orleans. By now, you've made up your mind as well: To paraphrase Buffett himself from his song 'Volcano,' you either lava him now, or you lava him not. Songs You Know by Heart is a friendly little best-of collection that features concert perennials such as 'Margaritaville,' 'Fins,' 'Cheeseburger in Paradise,' and the immutable 'Why Don't We Get Drunk.' If by some chance you've not yet been introduced to Buffett's music, this album is the best way to say hello. --Daniel Durchholz

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Just makes you happy
You can't help but smile and get in a good mood listening and singing along.
Rating: - An absolute essential!
This album is one that everyone should own. It's a classic, and it's an absolute essential. Jimmy Buffett is the undisputed king of the musical genre he created. Listen, enjoy, and visit his world. You may never want to go home.
Rating:  - Good, but get the box set or 'Meet Me In Margaritaville' instead
Jimmy Buffett is a legendary island rock performer. His unique voice and his backing band, The Coral Reefer Band made some of the best music of the 1970s, the 1980s and the 1990s, and he is still making great music even today.
Buffett has numerous compilations released, and this is, hands down, the best single disc collection on the market. All of the songs the really casual Parrothead will ever need are here. 'Margaritaville,' 'Cheeseburger In Paradise,' 'Come Monday' and 'Volcano' ... Read More
Rating: - Love It...But I Have A Complaint
Bar none, this is a FINE offering from Mr. Buffett. My problem is, this is the ONLY album most people who claim to be fans of Jimmy Buffett even own. That in itself is a true shame. Buffett has had much better albums/compilations of his work, but SONGS was still the first to put them all together in a non-live package. One can't argue with the quality since these are all Buffett classics that stand the test of time. Pure summer fun.
Rating: - Great CD For Parrotheads In Traning :P
This was the first Buffett CD at age 12, therefore it kinda reeled me into his music. This is a great CD with great songs that are still my favorite today. Every Parrothead has (or should have) this cd.
PHins Up!
