Our Take

Step into the velvety world of Nat King Cole with his Platinum Collection album, a delightful assembly of timeless classics that will make you feel like you're sipping a martini in a smokey jazz club.

From the smooth crooning of "Unforgettable" to the playful charm of "L-O-V-E," Cole's voice effortlessly glides through each track with the finesse of a seasoned performer. His impeccable phrasing and elegant delivery are a masterclass in vocal artistry, leaving you in awe of his talent.

The lush orchestral arrangements on this album perfectly complement Cole's honeyed vocals, creating a dreamy atmosphere that transports you to a bygone era of glamour and romance. Each song is a miniature masterpiece, beautifully crafted and expertly performed.

But it's not all smooth sailing on this Platinum Collection. Tracks like "Mona Lisa" and "Nature Boy" showcase a darker, more introspective side to Cole's music, revealing the depth and complexity of his artistry. These are the moments when Cole truly shines, showing us the many facets of his musical genius.

Overall, Nat King Cole's Platinum Collection is a treasure trove of musical gems that will enchant and delight listeners of all ages. It's a must-have for any music lover looking to add a touch of sophistication and class to their collection. Raise a glass to the king of crooners, Nat King Cole - long may his music reign supreme.

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.
