Nat King Cole - Just One Of Those Things (1957)

Nat King Cole - Just One Of Those Things, 1957 Analogue Productions (SACD)

  Brace yourself.........the huge symphonic brilliance of Billy May mixed with the mild mannered and hauntingly silky smooth voice of Crooner Nat King Cole.   In 1957 Cole shifted from Gordon Jenkins to Billy May to finally get the Sinatra experience which he always had wanted.   The end result is simply a magnificent album full of huge orchestration and soothing energy that really never stops bopping about.   Hoffman and Gray have done a awesome job on all the Nat King Cole SACD remasters and this one really swings !

"Cottage For Sale" is simply a masterpiece of cronnership' as Nat King Cole simply hits your heart dead on....

For those are too caught up in the modern music to really appreciate the good old stuff have simply missed out..... The mid 50's Nat King Cole albums are amazing !
