I even found it on Spotify! Thx. Shame there isn’t some wonderful vocal on it but I still like it. Thanks for the research!!!!

Bingo!!! That is it. Who is it???

Thanks - The Peterson is a great track but this particular advert isn’t this track. For all I know it might be a sound bite that the advertising company created for the advert. Click on the link I posted and you can hear the track I’m asking about

I think I have the Tommie Young. I’ll check today

‘Fraid not - could have sold it 3 or 4 time when I listed it

Anyone There is a VRBO advert with a good sounding track being played on a deck. Is this an actual track or a made up thing for the advert. I think this link works on the first click only. if the link doesn’t work search YouTube for ‘relax dance one key’
