I think Sex Mob is already doing OK in the UK...  I have played Sex Mob 
and many other related groups (mostly on the "non-OKOM" portion of my 
radio show ) and I have found their versions of Ellington, Jelly Roll 
Morton and other classic jazz standards to be fun and interesting 
modernizations on the traditional form. True - they probably are not to 
  "taste" for lot of people on this list, but they are at least doing 
something to bring OKOM to a new audience.
