What is this song please?

I have this song which is in my head and I just cannot get who it is and what it's called. I used to have this song on a compilation cassette which I brought in the early-mid 1990s. This cassette also had stuff like It's My Life - Dr Alban, and Tears Don't Lie by Mark'Oh.

Here's what I remember from the song:

- It was entirely instrumental. No vocals whatsoever.

- It was probably about the standard 3 or 4 minutes in length.

- It sounded like a much older song than what it actually was.

- Features a couple of organs, trumpets and possibly a trombone

- It sounded quite different on the left channel to the right

- featured a lot of reverb

This isn't an awful lot to go on but I hope someone can help me find it! :-)

Update:

I don't have a clue what the tape was called, it's long been chucked out as I no longer have a working cassette tape machine.

If I remember correctly, it had the Dr Alban track on side 1 and then on side 2 the last tracks were:

"Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" by Black Membazo

"Tears Don't Lie" by Mark'Oh

and then the last song on side 2 is the song i'm looking for.

The song is similar in style and arrangement to "Soul Bossa Nova" by Quincy Jones Orchestra but it isn't this song. It could be by the same artist however.
