Not Neccesarily for Pop-Jazz Genre Fans But Great

"Off the bat if should be said that this is NOT a Jamie Cullum CD.
I mean this in that Jamie is not singing most of these songs and that Cullums songs are more of a pop-infused jazz and a lot of his influences are much different than that(lots of jazz).
This out of the way, this album is great for its purpose. The purpose of the album is to get into the mind of Jamie and where his influences came from.
This album accomplishes its purpose and furthermore, it has included probably now one of my favorite Jamie Cullum songs "I'd Probably Do It Again".
A good buy for any Jamie Cullum fan who wants an insight on where Jamie obtained his musical taste and talent."
Misleading

"ONLY CONTAINS TWO CULLUM's SONG. Amazon's product description is vague. The cover is very misleading, too. Like others, I thought this would be Jamie Cullum's latest CD. It's not. It's just a compilation of songs by others and not even similar to Cullum's own music. I'll give 5 starts to Twenty Something and Catching Tales, none to this one."
