it appears that the original song, "montego bay" was done by bobby bloom in the 70s, and was re-released by amazulu in the 80s. merle haggard did another montego bay, but unless there's an older "re-do" around, it might be something from even earlier. the beach boys did "kokomo" for "cocktail" in the 80s--and it was about the bay, which is mentioned in the chorus of that song. there are a few rap and reggae songs that include "montego bay", but they are a little raw.
sorry--probably no more info than you already had. i'll keep my ears open...

Tapper, can you narrow it down to a genre? Do you remember if it was a rock, country, easy listening, or a pop station that played it...and could it possibly have been Martinique Bay and not Montego?
