A great small club performance from Nat King Cole of the sort he never really recorded for Capitol Records, even though this set is right in the middle of his glory days on the label! In some ways, the set hearkens back to Nat's roots maybe no surprise, as he's back in Chicago and the combo here features John Collins on guitar, Charlie Harris on bass, and Lee Young on drums working with Cole to offer up some nicely lean versions of tunes you might know from his fuller, more polished studio versions.

The set's a great reminder that at the core, even during the big years, Nat was still a jazzman at heart as you'll hear on tunes that include "Funny", "Straighten Up & Fly Right", "Nature Boy", "Route 66", "This Can't Be Love", "Somewhere Along The Way", "Mona Lisa/Too Young", "Exactly Like You", "Sweet Lorraine", and "Calypso Blues".© 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.
