I checked out every song with the title Tailspin on iTunes and didn't hear anything like what you described. You may want to check it out yourself and see.

I don't have iTunes anymore. I deleted it so I could run MusicMatch Jukebox. But at one time I did check every song with that title on allmusic.com and none of them was the one I was looking for.
In case anyone is wondering, yes I'm sure the song was called "Tailspin" because the music system we had where I used to work did show the title of the song playing on the display unit. Unfortunately it didn't show the artist.

hang in there RMarino. i know all too well the frustration of such a situation. to make you feel better and to encourage you to keep trying, back somewhere around 1985, i heard an amazing, simply amazing instrumental version of the old roberta flack tune "feel like making love" on a beautiful music station. well of course beautiful music stations were all canned so the artist was never announced. calls to the station went unanswered. when the internet age came about, i did numerous searches on all versions of that song. no luck. about two years ago, 20 years later, i stumbled upon it on an internet radio station that gave the artist and song title on the now playing page. i fell off my chair. after 20 years i now knew it was bob james. sorry for the dumb long story. LOL keep trying.

Thanks for the encouraging words "Interstate 78." Hopefully that will happen to me. Heck, there's another jazz song I've been looking for since the early '80s! It was a popular smooth jazz song and even used in TV commercials as background music. Unfortunately I have no idea of the title or artist. All I have is this melody in my head and I haven't heard the song on jazz radio since the mid '80s. I thought it was Spyro Gyra, but nothing on any of their greatest hits CDs matches. Oh well, maybe someday.
