Buffett died at the age of 76 on Friday.
Sir Paul McCartney has paid tribute to Jimmy Buffett as not just a US singer-songwriter but as a friend who would tell such “exotic and lush” stories that The Beatles star found it hard to “keep up with him”.
The British singer has paid tribute, over the last few months, to chat show host Sir Michael Parkinson, conductor Carl Davis and US singer Tony Bennett. “So many of us will miss Jimmy and his tremendous personality. His love for us all, and for mankind as a whole.Sir Elton John performs during his Farewell Yellow Brick Road show
Sir Paul said he also saw Buffett recently and heard his latest songs, My Gummy Just Kicked In, and Bubbles Up, the latter of which has a vocal that the ex-Beatle called “probably the best I’ve heard him sing ever”. US President Joe Biden hailed Buffett as a “poet of paradise” and a “best-selling writer, businessman, pilot, and conservationist who championed the waters and Gulf Coast that he so loved”.
Writing in an Instagram story, British megastar Sir Elton John called Buffett “a unique and treasured entertainer” who fans “adored”.
