Nat King Cole Sings, George Shearing Plays
Nat King Cole · George Shearing

 Although it would have been interesting to hear Nat Cole play some piano and perhaps accompany a vocal by George Shearing instead of exclusively the other way around, this session was a big success. Cole is in prime form on such songs as 'September Song,' 'Pick Yourself Up,' and 'Serenata.' Shearing's accompaniment is tasteful and lightly swinging, and the string arrangements help to accentuate the romantic moods. This CD adds three 'new' selections from the same sessions to the original program. |
