Album Description
Nod to the Storyteller is Nadirah's tribute to Jimmy Buffett who for the last 13 years has featured her as a part of his show. Buffett fans (affectionately known as Parrottheads) have come to know and love Nadirah and claim her as their own. The CD includes Nadirah's interpretations of popular Buffett songs like Margaritaville, and Volcano. Also notable are two duets she sings with him including Son of a Son of a Sailor and Eric Clapton's When the War is Over.

 What a Voice...Just not here January 6, 2009
Nadirah Shakoor has the pipes,but does not show her full talent on this CD. She has been Jimmy Buffett's main back-up talent for years. On this CD she pays homage to here summertime employer. There is a uniques selection of songs...and not just Jimmy's most popular. I enjoyed this CD, but wished that Nadirah had chosen songs that really showed her vocal talent.
Pure soul from the heart December 29, 2008
I totally enjoyed this CD and recommend it to everyone, parrotheads and
non-parrotheads alike. I particularly love "They call me Jesus" and the remix of "Volcano"(with a whole bunch of soul) Jimmy should be proud as hell to have Nadirah and the rest of Coral Reefers representing him and the record label this way.
Not your same old Buffett tunes! December 26, 2008
While you may have heard these great Jimmy Buffett songs a time or two before, you've never heard them with Nadirah at the wheel. Nadirah brings her soulful & lighthearted flavor to some old favorites and introduces us to some that may well become new favorites! Being an accountant, I am partial to track #5. We 'bean-counters' are usually forgotten unless it's April 15th or the IRS has called you! This is a fun cd, I used several as stocking stuffers which were then quickly unwrapped and played as we continued celebrating the holidays.
Incredible! December 25, 2008
I love all the songs on this album, but my favorite is "Open" which is one of the songs penned by Nadirah! This should definitely be an award winning album!
Nadirah is an incredible artist!

Charming & Adorable.
Darling, Absolutely Darling. I've lost count of how many times I've listened to it.
"When This War is Over"_trk 12 is awesome. I can totally see them performing this at the Grammy's or American Music Awards with people popping up out of the audience singing and clapping. NADIRAH totally rawks this piece.
