A White Sport Coat and a Pink Crustacean

A White Sport Coat and a Pink Crustacean is the third album by American popular music singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffett and the first major-label album in Buffett's Don Gant-produced "Key West phase". It was initially released in June 1973 as Dunhill DS-50150 and later rereleased on Dunhill's successor labels ABC and MCA. The title of the album is a play on the country song "A White Sport Coat and a Pink Carnation" by Marty Robbins and it contains several of what would later become Buffett's most popular songs. The album was recorded at outlaw country singer Tompall Glaser's studio in Nashville, Tennessee. It marks the first reference to Buffett's backup band as "The Coral Reefer Band" and is the first album that long-time Reefers Michael Utley and Greg "Fingers" Taylor play on.
