John Abercrombie, Adam Nussbaum, Gary Versace, and Jerry Bergonzi revision these classic pop and jazz tunes, applying enough inventiveness and deep soul to revivify oft-heard numbers like "Witchcraft" and "Our Love Is Here to Stay," as well as some more obscure songs like Sergio Mihanovich's lovely, lilting "Sometime Ago."

Down Beat (p.75) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[A] breezy blowing session of the highest order....The quartet brings expert ease to every track."
JazzTimes (p.108) - "Taken together, the results surprise and delight. Duke Ellington's gospel-based 'Come Sunday' becomes a gentle road song, Wayne Shorter's 'Footprints' a snazzy romp....It's a fine ride that encourages repeated listening." Nuttree Quartet Standards Songs Standards Review

Timeless standards…sophisticated style…seductive charm. A gifted singer who will satisfy your inner passions each time you hear his magic. This is how Jim Altamore is often described. Jim Altamore is a versatile jazz singer of popular standards from what is known today as the Great American Songbook. License to Swing is the name of Jim’s debut cd. A collection of American standards set to a swing tempo. Jim pays a heartfelt thanks to some of his predecessors like Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole and Bobby Darin. He stays true to their fashion and keeps the finger snapping, swing feel in songs like “Learnin’ The Blues”, “Route 66” and “Beyond The Sea”. Accompanied by some the best musician’s around, License to Swing is part of Jim’s story…..part of his life!!! – DJ Jim Stone, Host of the radio show…BIG BAND SWINGJim Altamore's sound is smooth, rich and sophisticated with a classic charm. License to Swing was produced by GrammyAward winning producer Jack Kreisberg. Jim is backed by some of the best musicians around including Rio Clemente, Steve Johns, Eric Johnson, Wayne Batchelor, Bill Easley, and Chembro Wilson.DJ Chris Neilsen NPR radio says, “Can't tell you how much I enjoyed this CD. Great Voice, great arrangements, great backing musicians, and Jim has a great voice. Only listen to "Learnin' The Blues" to be wrapped up in his sound. Great!!! (The word fits it all)”John Russell host of Midwest Ballroom/WDCB, Dundee, IL “I like new crisp versions of standards and will be sure to play more cuts off of it.”Currently Jim’s version of “Fly Me To The Moon” is being featured in Chazz Palminteri’s Broadway play A Bronx Tale.A graduate of Adelphi University, Jim grew up during a time of transition......the music world was changing with the arrival of the Beatles. However, Jim’s family always appreciated the true American music of jazz and swing. At a young age Jim’s dad kept him in touch with the great singers of his era like Sinatra, Ella and Bennett. Jim’s indoctrination in the world of music started on the right path….and it never changed!When Jim was 10 years old his father introduced him to the music of Count Basie. Jim immediately locked on to the infectious tempos of the “swingin’est” band of all time. Jim incorporates elements of both Sinatra and Basie in his singing style. He swings ...

Jim Gittum is one of only a handful of people who can attest to the inner-workings of 90’s rap-powerhouse Death Row Records. As a staff producer for Suge Knight’s enterprise, the young Long Beach native contributed his talent to the careers of legendary West Coast names, including Tupac Shakur. Like most things built around hype, Death Row eventually suffered its tumble from the top, scattering its remaining talent into obscurity save the superstars like Snoop Dogg.That could have been the end of Jim Gittum’s story: once a member of a notorious music family, now with nowhere to call home. He needed guidance. He needed prayer. He needed an answer. With a formidable resume in hand including his work with such West Coast mainstays as The Game, Keyshia Cole, KC Hailey, and Daz & Kurrupt, Jim Gittum parlayed his experience with Death Row into a puzzle piece within his larger destiny. He successfully composed music for major commercial entities, including works for Queen Latifah, and comedian Eddie Griffin. He further sharpened his skills by working on projects alongside of r&b artists including Tyrese Gibson, and R.L. & T-Low of Next, and with hip-hop producers Treach & Kay-Gee of Naughty By Nature fame.Always having been a humble servant of God, Jim Gittum also continued to serve Him as a musician on the Los Angeles area church circuit. Though never having had any technical training, Jim’s talent on the piano has allowed him to successfully diversify his familiarity with his craft. “I’m not just a beat programmer,” he explains. “I can just as well sit down at the piano to compose my music, which I know is God-given.”Collectively, Jim Gittum’s experience with the business of music could already be deemed successful. However, 2007 begins a brand new chapter in this musician’s story. Though always happy to write and produce for other artists, Jim’s quiet desire had always been to become a vehicle of his own message. He formed ...
