Jimmy Buffett giving fans a treat on DVD

By M&C News May 20, 2008, 15:12 GMT

Singer/songwriter/author Jimmy Buffett is set to release a “very special” new music DVD, Scenes You Know By Heart, on June 3rd.

Jimmy's CD, ‘Songs You Know By Heart,’ came out in 1985, and has sold over six million copies.  For the DVD, Buffett chose the best live performances of those songs from his concerts all over the world for this unique DVD.

Says Jimmy, "If you think about it, looking at the show on video is really the only way I get to see what you see. I have spent many enjoyable hours watching you and us have fun and have put together these scenes you know by heart."

In addition to the 13 songs from Scenes You Know By Heart, there are two bonus cuts, "Hey Good Lookin" and "It's 5 O'Clock Somewhere" (a #1 hit for which Jimmy received his first Grammy nomination for "Best Country Collaboration With Vocals" along with Alan Jackson). 

In the packaging is a beautiful 12-page booklet with new photos in which Jimmy explains how the footage was chosen and provides "a few thoughts about what we do, and what we play that you might not be aware of."

Just in time for Father's Day and Jimmy's annual summer tour, the DVD will be available exclusively at all Wal-Mart and Sam's Club stores in the U.S. and Canada, and through Walmart.com, as well as mailboatrecords.com.
