How to make a jazz waltz Playback with a light, bouncy feel?

[nimbleswitch]

For a week now I have had the tune "Johnny, I Hardly Knew Ya" running through my head as a fairly quick bouncy jazz waltz that belies the lyrics. I can actually hear the sax improv in my head. Trouble is, I can't find a style that delivers a light, bouncy jazz waltz on Playback.

What I've got here are the best combos I've found, but they're too dirge-like. Any ideas out there?
