Nat King Cole

from The Gone Sounds of Jazz with Sid Gribetz · host gribetzsid

Before Nat King Cole became “Nat King Cole”, he was a swinging and influential jazz pianist. Additionally, he popularized the innovative format of the piano-guitar-bass trio which heralded an elegant “chamber jazz” style. This program focuses on these jazz sides of his career, as well as recordings made with Lester Young, Harry Sweets Edison, Illinois Jacquet and other jazz greats. But fear not, I’ve kept a batch of shifafa on the side and also include some popular vocals for a fun and easily enjoyable five hour presentation. originally broadcast March 17, 2019
