Our Take

Nat King Cole, the crooner of all crooners, takes us on an enchanting journey into the night with his album "After Midnight." With his smooth as silk vocals and impeccable timing, Cole effortlessly transports listeners into a world where the moon shines bright and romance is in the air.

The album kicks off with the classic track "Around the World," setting the tone for the rest of the night - dreamy, romantic, and utterly captivating. Cole's rendition of "Sweet Lorraine" is pure magic, with his velvety voice wrapping around each note like a warm embrace.

But it's on tracks like "Just You, Just Me" and "I Got It Bad and That Ain't Good" where Cole truly shines, showcasing his unparalleled talent as a storyteller and interpreter of emotions. The way he effortlessly navigates the highs and lows of love and longing is a testament to his genius as an artist.

"After Midnight" is a timeless masterpiece that proves why Nat King Cole is a legend in the music industry. Each track is a work of art, a testament to Cole's unparalleled talent and charisma. So dim the lights, pour yourself a drink, and let Nat King Cole serenade you into the wee hours of the morning. Trust me, you won't regret it.

About the artist

Nat King Cole & His Trio

Nat King Cole, the smooth crooner with a voice as velvety as a fine Bordeaux, is a music legend that needs no introduction. Hailing from Montgomery, Alabama, this suave jazz pianist turned singing sensation has been serenading audiences worldwide since the 1940s. With his impeccable timing, exquisite phrasing, and unparalleled charm, Cole has solidified his place in the pantheon of music greats. But don't let his suave demeanor fool you - this cat had some serious chops. From swinging renditions of classic standards like "Unforgettable" and "L-O-V-E" to heartbreaking ballads like "Nature Boy," Nat King Cole could do it all. His honeyed tones have the power to transport you to a smoky jazz club, sipping on a cocktail and basking in the warmth of his voice. Despite facing racism and discrimination throughout his career, Cole never let it dampen his spirits or his music. He broke barriers as one of the first African-American artists to not only cross over into the mainstream, but to thrive in it. His influence can be heard in the work of contemporary artists like Gregory Porter and Norah Jones, who continue to carry on his legacy. So pour yourself a glass of something strong, dim the lights, and let Nat King Cole's timeless music wash over you like a gentle caress. His songs are like a warm embrace on a cold night, a reminder that in this crazy world, there's always room for a little bit of love and music. And with Nat King Cole at the helm, you're in good hands.
