    It's a long shot, but maybe 'A Night In New York' by Elbow Bones & The Racketeers is a tiny possiblity.
    What would you do without your muesli...where would you be without a bowl?

    Yeah, I would say it's "A Night In New York" by Elbow Bones & The Rackateers. This was an August Darnell (Dr. Buzzard, Kid Creole) side project from 1983, I think.

    Sorta big band sound..."take me for a night in New York"--very Dr. Buzzard & The Savannah Band in sound.
