GEORGE JAMES INTERVIEW

[jammck]

Jake from Nick's Pinwheel
I enjoyed watching that show as a child in the 1980s.

George James is the REAL face of Nickelodeon. Not SpongeBob.

There are so many of his songs that have been lost but not quite forgotten. I'd love to see/hear a comprehensive collection of all of his Pinwheel songs.

I got to meet him in 1983 at the height of Pinwheel when I was a little boy. It was like meeting a rock star to me. He signed me an autograph but my Mom forgot to rage a photo of me with him. I rented him being really sweet and I was seriously starstruck. Glad to see he is doing well.

[JellicleKat]

He really is a sweetheart, the same "Jake" you see on the TV show is the same "Jake" I hear on the phone when I get to visit with him. He's so kind and loving and just a lovely man. I can't say enough good about him.

WOW! Jake! How cool! Looking back, having grown--up around some people that didn't always have nice things to say about minorities, "Jake" from Pinwheel, and Levar Burton on Reading Rainbow, and Bill Cosby... those guys definitely played a big role in me not having some of those bad opinions I was exposed to when I was young.

Good to see Mr. James alive and healthy. I could still hear his rabbit song in my head when he brought it up.

[Lurker]

I love how he still has a positive view of doing the show these many years later.

[scottsaks]

I was in Hofstra University with George - so I would love to talk to him again. He was a great influence in my life. And yes, he is a very talented sweet wonderful man.

[Lykeakidagain]

Love this! What great memories I have of this great man.

How do we get a hold of him? I’d LOVE to get him to sign something for me! If he’d be so kind! Grew up on Pinwheel ❤
