That's another one I researched for Stomp Off. I ended up leaving it <br>
composer unknown based on these reports:<br>
<br>
Ray Smith: It's a safe assumption that Kamaquit is a Turk Murphy original.<br>
<br>
Robbie Rhodes: Bob Helm and Tom Bartlett believe that it's a <br>
Jamaican tune Turk heard in NY City. Mike Ferguson [long-time West <br>
Coast music lover] relates, "Turk told me it was a South American <br>
tune, and called it [gives odd spelling with accented letters]." At <br>
least Turk didn't call it his own composition!<br>
<br>
Vince Saunders remembers that it was a contemporary tune Turk heard <br>
on NY trip (he recorded it live at Roundtable club in NY in 1959), <br>
not an old folk tune.<br>
<br>
11/18/00: John Gill writes, "Turk told me it was something he heard <br>
on the radio. Later on someone told him it was an old Spanish folk <br>
song called 'Comofay' (my spelling)."<br>
