Son of a Son of a Sailor, Jimmy Buffett's eighth studio album, sailed out in March 1978 on ABC Dunhill (it later resurfaced on MCA). Norbert Putnam produced, and the record is prime Buffett: breezy, sun-baked songs that splash country, rock, folk and a dash of calypso together into the island-escapist daydream he'd made his own.
The title song became one of his well-loved tunes, and "Cheeseburger in Paradise" landed among the handful of hits that defined him, a barroom singalong built for sunburned crowds.
