3.0 out of 5 stars
Great Performances, Bad Synchronization,
By Jim Davidson (Berkeley, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Swing Era - Nat King Cole: Soundies & Telescriptions (DVD)
This DVD consists of what amount to early music videos by the Nat King Cole Trio. They fall into two groups: (1) Soundies from the 1940s featuring Oscar Moore on guitar and Johnny Miller on bass; (2) Snader Telescriptions from 1950-51 featuring Irving Ashby on guitar, Joe Comfort on bass, and Jack Costanzo on conga drum. And of course, Nat sings and plays the piano on all.
The most annoying thing about these films is that the sound is badly out-of-synch on many of the telescriptions. These same songs can be found on the DVD "The Snader Telescriptions" from Storyville with much better synchronization. (But that disc doesn't have the soundies.) The performances on this DVD are first rate and highly recommended. For those who only know Nat King Cole from his records, these films give you a chance to see as well as hear this great singer/piano player.
