Hi everyone!
Where can I find sheet music for Jim Hall’s calypso composition ”Bermuda Bye Bye”? Calypso and caribbean music in general are some of my favorite styles to play on jazz guitar. Does anyone know where I can find sheet music for this composition?

Do we have some Jim Hall fans out there?

Never heard that one. Is it a contrafact of "Jamaica Farewell"?

Lovely tune.
I have the Jim Hall Exploring Jazz Guitar book, which Jim Hall generously gave to me along with most of his CDs . Just checked the song is not in there.

I like that tune. I could try and at least figure out the chords if you give me a few days. Got a busy week, but I'd like to play this one too.
Great album too. And Big Blues. Jim and Art Farmer were so good together.

I found this live version of ”Bermuda Bye Bye” today.

It doesn't sound like it would be too hard to earball it. In fact I kind of dig it and I think I am going to listen to it about a hundred times and work out my own vibe.

It actually reminds me a bit of the ”Virtuoso” sound with Joe Pass.Last edited by Bbmaj7#5#9; 09-29-2019 at 02:13 PM.
