Buffett, who never cared for country music, hires Nashville insider Jimmy Bowen as his producer, goes to Fan Fair, puts on a cowboy hat on his album cover, and scores country hits with cheating songs like "Who's The Blonde Stranger?" Actually, things haven't changed that much, it's just a marketing move. ~ William Ruhlmann
