5 out of 5 stars Funkin' for Jamaica..........2006-12-21

My favorite songs:

1. Funkin' for Jamaica (Of course!)
2. Thighs High (I had forgotten about this song!)
3. Brighter Tomorrow (This is a good song - never knew it existed)

I paid domestic for this CD, so it's worth the value. Get a copy
for yourself and enjoy!

Five stars...

2 out of 5 stars A Dud.......2005-04-26

I was a fan of Tom Browne during the early eighties, his heyday, and found many of his recordings in line with much of the jazz fusion of that time. When purchasing this CD, I mistakenly thought that it was the original "Funkin for Jamaica" album which was a good album, instead of a compilation. The tracks chosen for this CD lean heavily on the pop-jazz end, and fails to demonstrate any of Mr. Browne's acumen on the trumpet. Except for "Funkin for Jamaica" and one other track, this CD is very forgetful.

5 out of 5 stars A very short guide to funkin for jamaica import CDs.......2001-03-06

There appear to be at least two imports titled Funkin' for Jamaica. I recommend mine (an Arista release made in Japan full title Funkin for Jamaica: The Best of Tom Browne). This import includes 3 Driza Bone remixes of Funkin for Jamaica two of which are arguably better that the original release (and one that is arguably worse...). For the life of me I can't fathom why this particular import failed to include the remixes (Note the 5 stars are for my F4J Import not this F4J Import).

5 out of 5 stars yes on the funk.......2000-10-23

Tom Browne is Grooving&Bumping on this set.Funkin' For Jamaica is a classic Jam that is still as Funky as it was the first time i heard it.i like the Mock Voice.dig TOm Browne he is one Ordinary Guy.that part alway's had me rolling.thigh is high is wicked as well.this Dude is very talented.this is a Bumping set.
