The Unforgettable Nat King Cole

简介:  Perhaps Decca recording artist and Nat Cole devotee, Earl Grant, said it best in his tailored lyrics to the tune of "Gotta Be This Or That", it's gotta be "Ella, Frankie, or Nat"...that about sums it up! I won't waste your time with an argument about who was the greatest male popular vocalist of the 20th Century, Sinatra or Cole, but if you asked Frank, he would have humbly told you, "I listen to Nat", and he did. Here is the "King" in all his glory, but let's face it, these recordings are just the tip of a very big iceberg...there are many, many more to listen to. Nat King Cole made even the ordinary of tunes very special and all his. You can sense the soul of this man through his voice. He was truly "unforgettable". Now c'mon Capitol and release Nat's version of "That's You"...my 45 rpm is showing a little wear!
