Our Take

Album Review: NAT KING COLE - Four Classic Albums

Step aside, modern pop stars, because the king is back and he's swinging harder than ever. Nat King Cole's collection of four classic albums is a time capsule of smooth, soulful tunes that will transport you straight to the golden age of jazz.

First up, we've got "Love Is the Thing", and let me tell you, love is definitely the thing on this album. Cole's velvety vocals croon over lush orchestral arrangements, making every love song feel like a warm hug on a rainy day.

Next, we have "The Very Thought of You", and oh boy, the very thought of Nat King Cole's voice is enough to make anyone swoon. This album is a masterclass in emotion, with each note dripping with longing and heartache.

Moving on to "After Midnight", and let me just say, this album is perfect for those late night lounge sessions. Cole's piano skills are on full display here, accompanied by a smoky jazz band that sets the mood just right.

Last but certainly not least, we have "Just One of Those Things", and let me tell you, Cole makes every song feel like more than just "one of those things". His impeccable phrasing and effortless charm elevate each track to new heights.

In conclusion, Nat King Cole's four classic albums are a must-listen for any music lover looking to inject a dose of timeless elegance into their playlist. So grab a glass of scotch, sit back, and let the king serenade you into a state of pure bliss. It's an experience you won't soon forget.

About the artist

Nat King Cole

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.
