Time to get really nitpicky...

I don't want to "swing" when playing OKOM.  I want to drive, stomp, shuffle, but not swing.

Swing, to me, is a later style of jazz with a slightly different vocabulary and a totally different feel.  Different instruments in some cases, certainly a different approach to the instruments.

Like I said, nitpicky.  But I can do that if I want.

nyah...
