To commemorate the sad ending of LIRR using train orders, I've put up a page: http://www.train-orders.com/TOUR/LIRR/LIRR.html
Every time I look thru your web site at the Train orders .. especally NY/ LI and vicinity . I get stuck in time and I expect to hear Tommy Dorsey , Benny Goodman or Glen Miller playing " In the Mood " or other big band sounds floating up the sound from Manhassett. My gramps and grandma lived on Webster Ave in Manhassett up to the late 50's... It's like the Little River Band is playing " Reminisceing" .... Your train order web site is the " Most " !!! Thanks for the memories !!!
I wouldn't mind finding some further big band era tunes to download for my MP3 player. A lot of what I can locate is not of good quality, or later years editing/re-creation. I'd just like the original tunes, as clean as possible.
The USAF Band has some that are very good , I got " In The Mood " from them a few years back and all these tunes I have are on the wifes computer , I will take a look at what is in there over the weekend and maybe I can send you a disc and or a web addy , to go along with your train orders next time.
