Talk about talent the likes of which we haven't seen since and will never see again. Mel Tomé was the male Ella Fitzgerald, a jazz musician who could sing anything--and he wrote biographies of his friends Buddy Rich and Judy Garland in addition to composing jazz standards. Nat King Cole was one of the best 2-3 jazz pianists of the Swing Era, rivaled only by Teddy Wilson and Art Tatum. Although Sinatra was "The Voice" and the first American "Elvis" in terms of his popularity and star power over young female fans, Nat had the more lovely pipes. Sinatra's strength was not in his having a pretty voice: it was rather his phrasing, elocution, and ability to convey raw emotion like Billie Holiday and to elevate a jazz ensemble like Basie's to exciting, ecstatic levels of swing. Finally, Sinatra had the best arrangers (Nelson Riddle) and songwriters (Jimmy Van Heusen). The closest vocal experience to Ole Blue is Tony Bennett--who is still a distant second--but when I heard him in Milwaukee last year, he sounded better than ever even at the age of 88. It's no accident that Bob Dylan, when asked last month to name his top cultural heroes, bypassed all of the artists of his generation and listed Sinatra in the top spot. The remaining 6 places were given to Irving Berlin, Cole Porter and Shakespeare (I can't remember the remaining three--it's an interview in the May 2014 issue of AARP magazine. Incidentally the song that Dylan, after a big build-up by the host as the "world's greatest composer," sang to David Letterman on the host's next-to-last show was a Sinatra song! ("The Night We Called It a Day"). Dylan is often called the single most important influence in the revolution in popular music that gave us no end of guitar-strumming folk and country singer-songwriters. It was the end of the era that gave us "The Great American Songbook," that library of compositions by a short list of professional composers who wrote the "standards"-"over the Rainbow," "As Time Goes Boy," "The Lady Is a Tramp" (a clever manifesto of female liberation), "My Funny Valentine," "Old Man River," "Fly Me to the Moon," and I haven't even mentioned a Gershwin or Cole Porter song. Replacing this material is "Crazy" (not a bad tune), "Blowing in he Wind," and "I Can't Get No Satisfaction."

June Christy has always been a favorite of mine for a long time...her voice is so arresting! Nat's piano playing was legendary before he took to the vocals (my mother loved his playing so much, she resented his singing!) BTW: Listen to Freddie Cole (Nat's brother)...you will not be disappointed!

Mel takes Nat's hand at the beginning and doesn't want to let go...then at :10 Nat almost touches June but pulls away (black men weren't supposed to touch white women on TV at that time). But at the end he shakes her hand and then puts all three of their hands together. So sweet.

How I wished Nat King Cole had lived forever. I can say without reservation that he was a genius for our times.

He may be immortalized as one of the best vocalists of American Popular song to ever live, but Nathaniel Adams Coles (Nat "King" Cole) was a marvelous pianist. Once he crossed over into the mainstream, the spotlight was on his piano playing far too infrequently. It is a great pleasure to see him accompany the invariably enjoyable June Christy here along with Mel Tormé on drums.

Así se escribe la historia. Tres de los más grandes cantantes de una época reunidos como el que se encuentra en las rebajas. Nat King Cole era esencialmente un pianista dotado, además, de una voz de oro. Otra voz de oro era la de Mel Tormé, aquí en la batería. Y los dos acompañando a la gran June Christy en este tema imperecedero, How High the Moon. Disfrútalo!

What a marvelous sense of humor Nat Cole had with his intro at 1:04, and trying his intro again at 1:54, of two Civil War hymn melodies. The Revolution took place anyway. Love this vid.

It's ridiculous.... Nat King Cole can play the Piano like God and also sing like God..
