ok to be clear, I didn't mean 'jazz' I meant, 'funky' songs like that of Queen.

Mack the Knife by Bobby Darin or some of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin songs ie "Aint that a kick in the head" or "Lady is a Tramp"

I'm not sure what songs you mean...
Jazz is totally different than the music Queen made...
And Funk is a different style too...
Here follows a list of SOUL/FUNKDISCO:
Aretha Franklin - RESPECT
Curtis Mayfield - Move On Up
Tavares - Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel
KC & The Sunshine Band - That's The Way I Like It
Booker T & The MGs - Green Onions
Commodores - Brick House
Tina Turner - Proud Mary
Hot Chocolat - You Sexy Thing
Donna Summer - Hot Stuff
Gloria Gaynor - I will Survive
Kool And The Gang - Get Down On It
The Four Tops - Don't Walk Away
Three Degrees - Dirty Ol' Man
The Spremes - Reflections
Chic - Le Freak
Candi Staton - Young Hearts Run Free
Jackson Five - I Want You Back
Some music like Queen:
Led Zeppelin - Stairway To Heaven
Rolling Stones - Painted Black
Santana - She's Not There
Status Quo - Whatever You Want
Europe - Final Countdown
Steppenwolf - Born To Be Wild

Well, your deffinition of *OLD* is a bit different from mine. I really do not consider Queen to be *oldies* *oldies but goodies* or *golden oldies* lol I love Queen! Queen is one of my alltime favourite bands, and I hate it that Freddy Mercury is dead, if he were alive today they would still be rocking out and filling our lives with their wonderful music. The other members of Queen is still together and every once in a while they will throw concerts and have someone play the lead singer. One time the lead singer from Bad Company did some songs with them and I thought he sounded really good with them.

As a jazz musician, I wouldn't cite Queen as an example. Are you looking for music similar to that of Queen, or are you looking for jazz? Pick one. "Oldies" puts an entirely different twist on things. Try rephrasing your question to get what you really want. You might also want to visit Wikipedia and read up on jazz.

Ella Fitzgerald is a classic, jazzy singer. Also nice jazzy songs like ' Making Whoopy' are on the Sleepless in Seattle movie soundtrack.
