Harry Connick Jr.

Probably one of the best piano players ever, and also a very underrated BASS player. He is set to release a NEW cd on the 3rd of February, it will be his 4th cd in the last 18 months and the 20th of his career. Even if u minus the 2 christmas CD's thats not a bad output, kind of the rate everyone shoud work at. Even though HARRY has a few cd's that are covers, he has quite a few that are JAZZ instrumentals and a couple of ROCK/FUNK records which pissed off alot of his big band fan base but were amazing CDs.

LOVE it when he's doing the piano thing. Not too thrilled with the singing and the big band stuff.

Prince should/could "give" him U Want Me, I'm sure it would be a hit

You catch his duet with Mya on Star Turtle?

j/k lol You're right -- the funk CDs were beautiful. I love Star Turtle and She. Very solid albums. He's got a way with melody and structure that I try hard not to envy.

My favorite song by him has to be "Jill" off Red Light, Blue Light.

I can't help but think how much he looks like a Simpsons character.
