Two of the songs on Son of a Son of a Sailor are written by Keith Sykes and the remainder are written by Buffett. "Cheeseburger in Paradise" from the album appears on all of Buffett's major greatest hits collections and is a perennial concert favorite, one of "The Big 8" songs that he has played at almost every concert and which is the namesake of the Cheeseburger in Paradise restaurant chain.
After performing the final song, "Margaritaville", the band leaves then returns (Buffett with a beer) and starts to play "Son of a Son of a Sailor". Live By the Bay was edited to make the song appear as an encore, but it was actually performed at the beginning of the show between "Door Number 3" and "Grapefruit—Juicy Fruit". [6]
