If you haven't bought Twentysomething yet, you are seriously missing out.

This is one of the best albums I've bought in quite a while. Cullum blends Jazz and Pop so well they seem to have always been together. This should be the next album you buy. He gives a great interpretation of Radiohead's "High and Dry", as well as a good rendition of Wind Cries Mary, Hendrix' classic.

I think it's a bit of a mishmash. The covers are generally good, but his original material borders on embarrassing IMO. "These Are The Days" is a bad Billy Joel imitation, like that's even possible -- at that's the opening track.

he's pretty cool i guess - i favor his cover of pharrell's frontin' (JC popped up onstage when N*E*R*D were in a'dam last year for a duet) - i saw him being interviewed recently where he stated that he and the boys from the neptunes wanted to get together for a future project

His album cover of Frontin' isn't anything special but I have his Live @ Blenheim Palace DVD w/ Frontin' on it that is awesome.

He's really good live...quite an entertainer without being too schticky.
