When Jimmy Buffett died on September 1, he left a finished album in the can ready for release. Equal Strain on All Parts, his 32nd LP, is every bit the laidback, eclectic, inviting set of tunes you’d expect from the beloved singer-songwriter, bridging pop, country, and rock & roll, mixing island sounds and down-home vibes, and balancing five-o’clock-somewhere good times with gentle life wisdom.
The casually rocking “My Gummie Just Kicked In,” was inspired by something Paul McCartney’s wife Nancy Shevell said to Buffett at a dinner party, and features McCartney on bass.

The album Jimmy Buffett completed before the “Margaritaville” singer’s death on Sept. 1 will be released on the Sun label November 3, with three songs “Bubbles Up,” “My Gummie Just Kicked In” and “Like My Dog” available to hear now.
Equal Strain on All Parts marks Buffett’s first record of new music since 2020, and among its 14 songs are collaborations with Paul McCartney, Emmylou Harris, Angelique Kidjo and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band.
Buffett died earlier this month of Merkel cell skin cancer.
The album’s tracks – see the complete list below – includes a cover of Bob Dylan’s 1976 song “Mozambique,” with Emmylou Harris, who sang on the Dylan original, joining Buffett for the cover.
McCartney plays bass on “My Gummie Just Kicked In” (listen below) and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band features on “University of Bourbon Street.” “Ti Punch Café” features Angelique Kidjo and “Portugul or Pei” features Lennie Gallant and Will Kimbrough.

Although he’d been coping with health issues during the last few years of his life, Jimmy Buffett remained productive, working on his first record of new music since 2020. That album, Equal Strain on All Parts, due Nov. 3, was completed shortly before his death of skin cancer at 76 on Sept. 1. Three new songs will preview the record: “Bubbles Up,” “My Gummie Just Kicked In,” and “Like My Dog.”
“Bubbles Up,” the first song to be unveiled, is a reflective ballad that, like later Buffett songs such as “Tides,” reveals a deeper side to his music.
