  1. Hi…I am the Bandleader of the “Cairo Club Orchestra”, I see you have listed our recording of “Chicago Rhythm”, I was just a bit puzzled
    as to how I can hear it? Is it a soundrack
    for an otherwise silent clip?
    By the way you are welcome to use it..if you would like some better recorded tunes by my Band.
    Drop me a line
    Cheers

  2. Hi Peter,
    This is actually a game that you play with your own itunes or music player – I simply followed the instructions with itunes on my computer, and those were the songs that came up.
    I have a copy of the Cairo Club album ‘Sunday’ which I’ve imported into my itunes and listen to from there.
    Thanks for the offer to use your music, though – I’m not sure how I could take advantage of it just yet! Though I have been thinking about streaming music – if I can figure out a way to do it without contravening copyright, etc etc…
    I love dancing to your band, though – you’re so much fun!
