One Particular Harbour

One Particular Harbour is the twelfth studio album by American popular music singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffett. It was released in September 1983 as MCA 5447 and was produced by Buffett and Michael Utley. It was Buffett's first involvement producing an album. "Stars on the Water" was a minor hit for its original writer, country music songsmith Rodney Crowell and was later covered by Texan country music singer George Strait on his 2001 album, The Road Less Traveled.

In addition to songs written or co-written by Buffett (including one with JD Souther and Josh Leo), the album includes four cover songs: "Stars on the Water" by country songwriter Rodney Crowell, "California Promises" by Steve Goodman, "Brown Eyed Girl" by Van Morrison, and "Why You Wanna Hurt My Heart?" written by the Neville Brothers' Art Neville. Buffett's version of "Stars on the Water" also appeared on the soundtrack to the 1993 movie The Firm.

One Particular Harbour reached No. 59 on the Billboard 200 album chart and No. 35 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart. The song "One Particular Harbour" hit No. 22 Adult Contemporary and "Brown Eyed Girl" made it to No. 13 Adult Contemporary.

AllMusic reviewer Ronnie D. Lankford, Jr. says One Particular Harbour was something like a comeback, with Buffett's best batch of songs since Son of a Son of a Sailor in 1978". The title single, "One Particular Harbour," is a fan favorite, and is sometimes considered part of "The Big 8" that Buffett has played at almost all of his concerts.[citation needed]
