Okay, a little more research (because my gut is telling me to follow the Carling Band or Gordon Webster path)... Google still has a snippet of text cached saying: "December 2008 Snowball Sweden 2008.12.31 ... - Gordon Webster http://www.gordonwebsterswings.com/CoAuthor/calendar.../calendar.xml ...

Love it--can't wait to find out who it is. Sounds modern, and the singer sounds a little like Steven Mitchell. Think it's a Swedish band w/ him, on an unpublished local recording? Also, it sounds like the whole video might be one or two bands - research who played at Snowball in 2008/2009 & befo...

PC DJ here. I use MediaMonkey for organizing. I also use it as my "cueing" player when I'm DJing (out my primary sound card, to my headphones).

When I'm DJing, I drag tracks from MediaMonkey to WinAmp and let WinAmp play out my 2nd sound card to the room.

Before you buy, let me check in with Robert - PayPal seems to be adding some extra charges on the customer end. I want to get those taken care of for you. Jose, did we ever get this figured out for you? I can't remember! I'm really worried I might have dropped the ball after posting this here. :oops:

My guess is it's a big band from the 80's or later. Unfortunately, I can't name the song. But the tone reminds me of Bob Wilber, Mora's Modern Rhythmists, etc.
