License to Chill

One day some time ago, Buffett noticed that his fans look like country-music fans. He makes the most of that fact on Chill, his first foray into the music, which features guest spots by Alan Jackson, Kenny Chesney, Toby Keith and Clint Black (with that bunch, it would be hard to make a bad country album). Buffett approaches the genre with his typical barefoot-on-the-beach vibe, and the laid-back shuffle of songs such as the honky-tonk title track has earned him his first-ever Number One album.

Next: Ray Charles
