Biography

The smoky, smooth pop vocals of Nat "King" Cole make us tend to forget that, at heart, he was essentially a jazz performer. His piano proficiency, vocal phrasings, and utter coolness all hark back to his jazz roots, even in his decidedly pop repertoire or arrangements. Whether singing "Nature Boy", jamming with guitarist Oscar Moore, or performing posthumous duets with his daughter Natalie Cole,… Read more in Amazon's Nat King Cole Store

Editorial Reviews

In 1955, over the course of five recording sessions with Nelson Riddle, Nat sat down at the ivories once again to record this instrumental album, which he himself considered one of his finest efforts. Includes an alternate take of My Heart Stood Still and 15 other delights.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple, flawless stuff, December 2, 2001

"mrcarag" (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Piano Style of Nat King Cole (Audio CD)

It's lyrical, light, flawless swinging King Cole piano solo with a Nelson Riddle orchestral backing, playing standards from My Heart Stood Still to April In Paris. What more do you want??

5.0 out of 5 stars The Piano Style of Nat King Cole, March 31, 2007

Rolla Breed (Shelton, CT USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Piano Style of Nat King Cole (Audio CD)

Nelson Riddle provides outstanding accompaniment to the virtuosity of Nat Cole on the piano. This performance reinforces the truth that Nat King Cole rates with Art Tatum and Teddy Wilson as a jazz pianist.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good...but not enough solo
I really wanted to hear more Nat soloing--before he became the star vocalist. He was an extremely good jazz pianist...and that's why he swung in singing. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Its incredible to believe that when this album

2.0 out of 5 stars Too much background music
I like Nat's piano playing, but in this music, you can hardly hear it, there is way too much background music Dennis L. Siluk

4.0 out of 5 stars Ahead of its time...
This is a pensive, introspective Cole breaking new ground, exploring a new kind of dialog with the piano and the orchestra. Read more
