Jimmy Buffett's new album will be posthumously released following his death.
Fans will hear Buffett again following the singer's death on September 1 through the album he prepared prior to his passing. The late "Margaritaville" singer completed the LP in question with the help of musicians like Emmylou Harris and Paul McCartney.
When Will Jimmy Buffett's Last Album Be Released?
Buffett's "Equal Strain on All Parts" album is now available for preorder in vinyl and CD formats, and the material will preview three advance songs: "Bubbles Up," "My Gummie Just Kicked In" and "Like My Dog," per Ultimate Classic Rock & Culture.
The singer was still able to preview songs from his upcoming album through his radio program, with the first song, "Bubbles Up," already available on YouTube.
In a tribute after the singer's death, McCartney shared that he had fun recording "My Gummie Just Kicked In" with the singer whom he referred to as a "very special man" and "friend."
He added that he loved "Bubbles Up" because the great song recorded Buffett's best singing style since he debuted.
The Beatles member said. "He turned a diving phrase that is used to train people underwater into a metaphor for life when you're confused and don't know where you are just follow the bubbles - they'll take you up to the surface and straighten you out right away.

Buffett passed away at the age of 76 at his home in Sag Harbor, New York, after his long private battle with Merkel cell skin cancer. He reportedly underwent treatments for four years since his diagnosis but opted to continue performing while doing so.
"Buffett had little patience with performers who took themselves too seriously," the statement from his family read. "He liked to say that the job of singing for a living was descended from the profession of court jester."
