AVID Jazz continues with its Four Classic Album series with a re-mastered 2CD release from Nat “King” Cole, complete with original artwork, liner notes and personnel details
“Sings For Two In Love”; “Penthouse Serenade”; “10th Anniversary Album’” and “Just One Of Those Things”
Although we at AVID do have a fine Easy Listening catalogue, which in fact, does carry a couple of collections by our latest inductee into the jazz hall of fame; Great Beginnings (AMSC569) and The Essential Collection (AVC953). For our latest release we have chosen to highlight the jazz side of Nat King Cole. Our four classic album selections cover all aspects of Nat’s jazz output from the jazz vocal workouts with arrangers, Nelson Riddle and Billy May on “Sings For Two In Love” and “Just One Of Those Things” to a selection of his sides with the Nat Cole Trio on “The 10th Anniversary Album” to the classic piano session “Penthouse Serenade” where we can witness just how fine a jazz pianist Nat really was.
