  • It sounds so sharp and fresh, marvellous for a 54 year old recording- how can anyone not like this version?

  • Check out those comic modulations!

  • @Lankymax1 I can't get my head round that instrumental section! Every time I come back to this recording I hear it again and just think 'eh??'

  • @DavidGalica as am I!! I plav alto sax. We created a mini musical with my high schools drama department and vocal jazz for a radio show during remembrance day

  • @TheDirtyMongGoose All modern music from the twenties onwards is based on jazz. And by that I mean swing, rock n roll, rock etc. And jazz itself came from the blues.

  • Just beautiful - haunting lyrics and a smooth voice ;-)

  • I love it! Nat was always a great of mine and he passed it on down to his daughter, Natalie Cole.

  • Nat "KIng" Cole, the coolest and smoothest.

  • Thanks for posting this! I used to sing this at in choir class, and it sure 'sirs up memories'

  • What a great post. Great Ellington music and a marvellous Ellington song superbly sung by the Master.

  • DUKE ELLINGTON!

    haha great version

  • duke ellington:-)

  • I agree Nat's version is great, but have a listen to Harry Connick's live version it's just brilliant.

  • @chisler26 Kudos to Harry Conick but compared to Nat 'the great' King Cole!!? No contest.

  • No one could sing this song as well as Nat King Cole. I only wish I could have met him.

  • One of the Greatest singers of all Time!

  • Who but the King?

  • I have some of his real early stuff and brother man knew how to handle the 88s

  • Nobody could sing this better than Nat. Duke must have been thrilled to hear Nat sing this

  • Yea. Remember Nat was a great jazz musician

  • Yeah, this is the greatest voice ever. Once nat's touched a song give it a miss you'll come off second best.

  • a message to all those in the future who may want to record this top song ---dont bother

  • hey, i play this in my rock band and rod did great on it.... there is only one nat but it is apples and oranges.....awfully different without you, don't get 'round much anymore.....

  • Harlem 1942, Duke Ellington wrote and recorded this song, i'm sure he would be glad that your rock band and me are still playing and enjoying his song. Keep swinging man.

  • check amazon, gtreat album

  • I can't find this album ANYWHERE but it was my FAVOURITE as a kid. They just don't write music like this anymore.

  • king for sure

  • awesome!!!!

  • Che orchestra è? E' quella di Count Basie?

  • Grande Nat!!

    Questa è una bella versione.
