Buffett, Jimmy

Before The Salt
1979 2LP compilation album. Before the Salt is a revealing look at Jimmy Buffett before the beachside mythology fully formed—an album that captures the songwriter in his raw, searching years, when the music leaned more toward folk, country, and introspective Americana than the tropical escapism that would later define his fame. Compiled from early recordings made in the late 1960s and early 1970s, this release documents Buffett as a young artist honing his craft, driven by storytelling, melody, and a restless sense of place.
