Nat King Cole Documentary (1991)

His articulation of words, clear, concise an untouchable artist! None can compare with Mr. Nate King Cole black and beautiful! America 🇺🇸 wasn’t ready for his level of talent! He set a very high standard for singing and playing the piano, he was in a class by himself!

Handsome, suave, well dressed and incredibly talented. 👌👍

Man, what a smooth set of pipes. Incredible voice, not to mention an incredibly talented piano player. A very musically gifted human being. We are fortunate to enjoy his music, even to this day.

I remember when I was young, my parents used to play this song at Thanksgiving, and back then, I didn't understand the importance of Nat King Cole until I was 11-years old. Now that I am older and a teenager, I play this song to remember those moments. This is the first song I play on Thanksgiving Day because it reminds me that Christmas is near. Thanks, Mom and Dad for playing this song! This is a very beautiful song and I am so glad that kids today can learn about Nat King Cole through this platform! God bless you, Mr. Nat King Cole, God bless you!

Thanks for this wonderful documentary. Nat and his wife were such beautiful people, inside and out. Nat was a remarkable pianist, amazing singer, naturally funny, and highly intelligent. I love this man so much. Nat's wonderful voice elicits the comforting feel of being wrapped in a warm blanket and drinking hot chocolate. There were so many phenomenal artists in this video: Ella Fitzgerald, Oscar Peterson, Ben Webster, Quincy Jones, Harry Belafonte, Ray Brown (a world-class bassist and also married to Ella Fitzgerald for six years), Eartha Kitt, Sammy Davis, Jr., and more. So much talent for which I remain grateful, as I listen to them regularly.

Nat King Cole was so so talented. His piano playing and singing were done effortlessly. Such a gracious man. He certainly left this world way too soon.

"Unforgettable" is a timeless song so beautiful.

I was three years old when this king died, but I hear his songs as if I lived in his time. Unforgettable, that's what he is.

Nat King Cole was so special. Listen to a lot of what was popular pop music in his time then listen to him. He was so elegant, like on another plane of understanding.

I saw him live in London in the 50’s once seen and heard never forgotten. A cliche but oh so true in Nat King Cole’s case a unique truly class act.

My aunt played Mr Nat King Cole’s music on her record player. I was young but I understood the pleasing sounds from that disc of wax. I’d put my ear to the speaker absorbing every drop. RIP, Sir.

When I went away to college, I set my clock radio with tape player to wake me to Nature Boy every morning. I didn't realize he was so young when he died, but I do remember that it broke my heart when I realized I wouldn't hear any new songs from him. I ached for his family knowing what a special man has passed. I was so young when he was on TV and he shaped my life and my feelings throughout the civil rights movement and still today, the injustices burn my soul. I thank him for that and will for the rest of my life. He made me a better person.

That voice is unforgettable!🎶 great piano player too!🎹🎶

My grandmother was a huge fan of this very beautiful man. We both loved "THE CHRISTMAS SONG" . My personal favorite one is "UNFORGETTABLE" with his daughter , Natalie.

"Mona Lisa" was a popular song when I was born. My father had the record and would sing to me. It's one of my earliest memories. Brings a tear to my eyes every time I hear Nat King Cole singing that lovely song.

"THE CHRISTMAS SONG" PLAYING XMAS DAY AND XMAS EVE. AND MAMA IN THE KITCHEN, SWEATING OVER THE STOVE, UP ALL NIGHT COOKING PIES AND CAKE. GERMAN CHOCOLATE CAKE, SWEET POTATO PIE, POUND CAKE, PEACH COBBLER, AND CHRISTMAS DINNER. MY MOTHER WAS THE BEST COOK IN THE WORLD. REST IN PEACE MAMA & DADDY....LOVE AND MISS U BOTH xoxo

In the summer of 1983 I took a yacht cruise on the Aegean Sea. Late one evening I curled up in one of the canvas sails, turned on my walkman and listened to Nat King Cole sing, "Stardust". The sky was so full of stars that night,and I was rather full inside thinking to myself what a privilege to be here in this wonderful part of the world listening to this wonderful singer and song on such a glorious night. Without Nat the experience would not have been half as gratifying. This 18 plus years after his demise, what a legacy he left us -- in so many ways. 5/2020

His beautiful voice will forever be remembered for our life time together right now here.

He was so damn smooth and talented ❤️

FANTASTIC DOCUMENTARY! PERIOD!
