About

Nat King Cole broke the pop barrier with his smoky, smooth vocals, stringing along a huge number of hits beginning with “Straighten Up and Fly Right” in 1943. Pianist Ramsey Lewis and guitarist John Pizzarelli have tailored a tribute to the titan of fifties vocal pop, which includes his hits to those singular tracks of sophisticated cool jazz that have influenced their own.
