I have this CD too. If you are in NYC, then it is the right place for you to live where all kinds of music are so accessible. In some bars, they still play Gimpsy Jazz and swing. If not, you should consider moving.
By the way, if you like Bossa Nova, check this lady out: Rossa Passos. I found her in Yo Yo Ma's Obrigado Brazil.
Enjoyed your post.
