> [@](#): > > Dragon Phoenix: Did I miss a poll request of yours? That’s my guess from your “you did not include my fave” comment in the Buffalo Springfield poll. Sorry for the misunderstanding - I was referring to the song Expecting to fly, which was not in your choice of 6. I’d like to see an **Alice Cooper** supplemental, please. ---

Like Homebrew I can barely pick 6 favorite Buffett albums, but if forced to choose my favorite 6 Buffett songs I have to go with: 1. Cheeseburger in Paradise 2. Cowboy in the Jungle 3. Distantly in Love 4. Great Heart 5. The Weather is Here, Wish You Were Beautiful 6. It’s My Job. Of his covers, I love “Brown Eyed Girl”, “Uncle John’s Band” and “Another Saturday Night”. ---

By the way, I read somewhere that **Harrison Ford** is the one who “plays” the whip in _Desperation Samba_. When Jimmy realized they needed someone to crack a whip in the song, the only person he could think of that knew how to use a whip was…Indiana Jones. Even if it’s not true, I love that story. ---
