He Went to Paris

My Jimmy Buffett tributes continue. From the American Songwriter website: “From his album A White Sport Coat And A Pink Crustacean, Buffett wrote the third-person narrative “He Went To Paris” about a Spanish Civil War veteran and one-armed pianist he’d met named Eddie Balchowsky. Released as the album’s final single, it didn’t chart, but became well known after Bob Dylan named it as one of his favorites and Buffett began to perform it live.”
