  • His voice is very similar to Nat King Cole...

  • I feel bad for myself not listening to this fantastic singer earlier, great voice great groove

  • A very much under rated artiste.Equally as entertaining as Nat King Cole.Perhaps he sounded too much like Nat. An accomplished and talented musician. Luckily his recordings can still be purchased.

  • Sing it Earl.lol

  • Very under rated artist...some folks actually thought he was Nat's brother,but he wasn't....both fellows are two of my fav's...thanks for posting!

  • Smooth and in the tradition of NK Cole,...this is great jazz.. End of the Rainbow had memories for me. Earl Grant,...what an American treasure. Bless You.

  • @urgdaddy He plays organ and piano together sometimes one hand on each bill evans had one hand on electric piano one on acoustic sometimes

  • grande earl! tremendos arranjos, técnica, criatividade! God bless!

  • Fantastic song! Earl Grant great voice!

  • Very cool, this cat was more hip than all of the new hip-hop nonsense these days.

  • @HunterMann - couldn´t agree more!

  • @MrKeys57 Yes, hard to believe how many hippity-hoppity musicians think that they are doing 100% original music, when they seem to borrow so much from early jazz, blue and R&B music . With my touring cinema show I once showed a 1948 film of Cab Calloway dancing and a college kid said "Hey, he's totally copying Michael Jackson's moonwalk!"

    ouch!

  • @HunterMann - that´s real scary........

  • @MrKeys57 All I can figure is that, for the past 10-15 years, young people have had such a wave of information available to them from the internet and 500 TV channels avail, that they simply can't take it all, so they just focus on the most recent pop culture, hence the term "Oh, that's so last week!" In the 70's, I was in high school and knew the current pop music, pop music from the 50's & 60's, a good knowledge of jazz, swing & blues.

    Of course we only had 5 TV channels then...

  • @HunterMann - there is to much avaliable, and there is nobody enlightening them about the "real" music, where it all came from, - the blues, - the negro spirituals, gospel, jazz, the soul, - well, all about the old school, there should be a " drivers licence" for music......!!! learn the basics first, then go forward, and lets not forget about classical music, the late O.Peterson urged young pianist´s to learn the classic basics, before moving on to jazz - he did.

  • Thank you so much for this clip

    It is the first time i see Earl playing

  • thank you for posting this! I grew up on Earl Grant ...
