I must agree. Buffett is interesting, has a limited voice which can sound nice in places, writes catchy tunes about saltwater fantasies and self-abuse, but is hardly a folkie (a term which is easier to exclude with than to define.) Buffet has done a yeoman's job of marketing his music, books, etc., to us aging boomers with a few flowery shirts stashed away in our closets, but displays no kinship to traditional music or values. Categorize him amongst the classic rock and alternative country artists.
