🏝️☮️Rest in Peace, Jimmy Buffett

In the 1960s, Jimmy Buffett performed at Trade Winds Tropical Lounge in St. Augustine, Florida. … and legend has it he was fired from a gig there!

Vaughn Cochran, co-owner of Blackfly The Restaurant on Anastasia Island, performed with him at that time, and went on to become an original member of Jimmy Buffett’s Coral Re**er band!

While in St. Augustine, Buffett also performed with the late Gamble Rogers, a native Floridian who was a singer-songwriter, storyteller, playwright, guitarist and humorist who performed on "The Tonight Show," "The Ed Sullivan Show," National Public Radio, and folk festival stages throughout the United States. Gamble Rogers died in 1991 trying to save a drowning swimmer in Flagler Beach. The Gamble Rogers Folk Festival honors his music each year.

Jimmy Buffett dedicated his 1994 CD "Fruitcakes" to Rogers. The two musicians played concerts together in St. Augustine at Trade Winds Tropical Lounge (and throughout Florida and southern states on the folk music circuit), along with other musicians including Bob Patterson and Vaughn Cochran.

“Gamble Rogers taught me how to move an audience with dialogue and delivery as much as with music,” Buffett wrote. "I attribute a lot of my ability to remain true to my vision to Gamble Rogers and what he taught me."

Very sad to hear of the passing of Brady Green. He was inducted into SAMHOF as a member of the Seiners in 2020.
