I believe the song here is a live band but I do not think it's an original so a version of it will be awesome unless I am mistaken :)

First track is "Besame Mucho" - Oscar Aleman & His Orchestra (it says it right under the video)

Second one is "Here we go Again" By Glenn Miller & The Army Air Force Band

Third one is "Dizzy Atmosphere" by Dizzy Gillespie Sextet (Featuring Charlie Parker)

The fourth one is "One O'Clock Jump" by Count Basie, an iconic swing track that is also listed right under the video!

Last one is "Things Ain't What They Used To Be" by Duke Ellington

I don't know if you have access to a smartphone where you are, but if you do, get Shazam (shazam.com).

It's prefect for this Song ID stuff. Most of the time you can play a YouTube clip, hit the Shazam button and 20 seconds later you will have the name and artist of the song. The exception of course is if it's live music or a relatively obscure recording.

Also, a lot of the YouTube clips will have the song listed either under the video or in the comments already.

Good luck!

I do have a smartfone and I know of the app you are talking about but I cannot pay for anything on my smartphone (I am anti-online purchases...) I am in Korea so records stores are quite hard to come by and knowing anyone around here who is knowledgable about this kind of music is rare...I rely on u guys.
Most of the time I cannot figure out the precise version of the song anyways...
I do not remember seeing the music titles under some of those clips so i do apologize for wasting time, I will look more carefully next time. But you guys have been super helpful! until next month (maybe)

thanks friend!
