Rooster_Ties Posted April 24, 2003 Report Posted April 24, 2003 (edited) ===== http://www.jamiecullum.com/ Go to the "music" section to sample several MP3's. He sounds like a "Harry Connick Jr." wanna-be, to me... Edited April 24, 2003 by Rooster_Ties Quote
Joe G Posted April 24, 2003 Report Posted April 24, 2003 He seems humble enough. Best of luck to him. Things ain't always what they seem.... Quote
JohnS Posted April 25, 2003 Report Posted April 25, 2003 His cd Pointless Nostalgic sums him up for me. Pointless especially. Quote
Ed S Posted April 25, 2003 Report Posted April 25, 2003 The next Peter Cincotti perhaps??? I still remember the post by that spammer on BN about Peter Cincotti. I jokingly referred to his claim that Cincotti was the best 19 year piano phenom by remarking "You mean there's more than one? I need to get out more " It seems that once again the joke is on me.

JSngry Posted April 27, 2003 Report Posted April 27, 2003 Why all the fuss? Jim Cullum's been around for DECADES..... Quote
JohnS Posted May 5, 2003 Report Posted May 5, 2003 From the amount of airplay on BBC Radio 2 this weekend he is now the darling of the easy listening set. Quote
JohnS Posted May 8, 2003 Report Posted May 8, 2003 Here's a quote from Cullum from the London Daily Telegraph "I'm not playing hardcore free jazz. This is a lot more modern" Quote
Robert J Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 High tea with the Queen: "I've never been into royalty," he adds, "but I was, like, bowing and saying, 'Hello, Your Majesty, please don't cut off my head." "Cullum is tipped to bring a new, young audience to jazz, a genre usually more associated with chin-stroking than underwear-throwing. " "Take Norah Jones's stuff. It's nice, but it's nice acoustic music. It's not jazz." http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/entertainmen...rticles/5293018 Quote
Sundog Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 David Beckham of jazz huh? Is he by any chance dating "sporty" spice? Quote
Bright Moments Posted January 3, 2006 Report Posted January 3, 2006 seems like young cullum has done quite well for himself since this thread started.................... Quote
RonF Posted January 3, 2006 Report Posted January 3, 2006 He's hardly an unknown. Just released his second (I think) on Verve 3 or 4 months ago. Super hyped, millions in promotion. Been on all the American morning and late night talk. Peter Cincotti, Harry Jr. with some snazzier r&b piano chops and he's supposedly very electric in live performance. Quite the entertainer. Although talented, he still sounds like he's in high school to me. Quote
AllenLowe Posted January 3, 2006 Report Posted January 3, 2006 yes, but he's probably in the advanced class - Quote
sheldonm Posted January 3, 2006 Report Posted January 3, 2006 ...not my cup-o-tea but he appears to have some fans. Quote
