Marek and all,

I just tried searching for a good Kenny Ball track by track  
discography - the info is pretty thin on The Net! (even allmusic.com  
fails...)
So far all I can find is "When I'm 64" and "Your Mother Should  
Know"  ( using Amazon.co and Amazon.co.uk  and my own collection.)
Both of those tracks fit well in OKOM style.

Any others?

However, I did turn up a few interesting articles about jazzy cover  
versions of Beatles tunes (not  OKOM)
