He was an elitist. Required proof of Vax to see his concerts. Had a chain of restaurants serving mediocre burgers selling his paraphernalia. Enjoying capitalism to the fullest. Flaming liberal that couldn't just shut up and sing. Had all his music, threw it out years ago.

You need to separate the art from the artist^.
Like Sid said I never cared for him until I got older. A pirate looks at forty is a great song.

The appeal of his music is something I never understood. Who did he focus on? Older people sitting on a beach smoking dope or another demographic?

"PARROT HEADS"...whoever they are??:unsure:

Ones I heard of were older white libs. Mostly women, a few dudes. My guess is they were teachers, profs, clothing, designers, administrators, and artists. Looks that way too.

No the artist needs to separate their politics from their music. I read A Pirate Looks at Forty in the late 90s. From his book, I would have never guessed Buffet was a flaming lib until he used his platform to push his leftist views.

****ing skin cancer man.
Wild how a mole or nodule can look so minor but can quickly kill ya if you don't recognize that's it malignant early.

Don't care about his politics, but god I hated how much his songs were overplayed living in SFL.

RIP
