Stars: Nat King Cole

Summary: Eighteen songs from Nat complement this visual tribute to one of the most popular singers of the twentieth century. His popularity still continues to this day almost forty years after his death.

Stunningly talented and effortlessly elegant, jazz-pop vocalist Nat "King" Cole could make any room he performed in feel like a lovely dream. Born Nathaniel Adams Cole in 1919, the "King" began his career first as a pianist and then as a vocalist, perfecting the smooth, sensuous sounds that would become his signature style. In 1955, Cole became the first African-American to host a national television show--a truly groundbreaking feat in a time of extreme racial segregation in the U.S. In this and many other ways, he was a genuine trailblazer who paved the way for generations of entertainers to come. This classic 17-song live set features Cole performing some of his most beloved tunes, including "Mona Lisa," "When I Fall in Love," "Autumn Leaves," "Sweet Lorraine," and many more.
