Jamaica - from the CD SAZZUNK, is a Tropical composition featuring a vocalist but this arrangement has the melody written for Trumpet solo. Simple Tropical Rhythm accents for the horns in the background augment and compliment the flavor for the melody. The soring solos are transcribed so hang on to your hat as it ends with a wild and crazy line for everyone to play! Modulations of the melody push it into new levels of heat followed by a more blazing hot solo at the end!
LYRICS
I’ve gone away, far away, to find my love in Jamaica,
The sky was red, like my love,Â
She’s gone away to the island,
I’ll look for her, in the wind,
That’s where she left her love for me,
And though it might take for ever,
My love for her flows endlessly,
Chasin’ all my dreams, as far as they may go,
You’re the one I love and you’re the one I need.
I’ve gone away far away, to find my love in Jamaica,
She was to me loves breath of live,
Without her I’m not whole,
I was to her, I thought the same,
She left me amidst the game,
Is there no hope for a man,
 Who’s lost his love to the windÂ
