"Cantaloupe Island" is a jazz standard composed by Herbie Hancock. It was one of the first examples of a modal jazz composition set to a funky beat.
Because is a well known and also fun to play on it, I made a backing track for you guys to fool around with it.
Introduction 8 bars, then structure repeats 5 times, last with an outro.
