Nat King Cole-My Baby Just Cares for Me

[insman1976]

One of the smoothest voices in history. I don't think anyone will ever sing the Christmas Song to suit me except Nat King Cole, and this is pretty as well.

[kpitt1204]

@insman1976 I agree with that 100%. It is not even Christmas season for me until I hear that song. He has THAT song on lock.

What a great version! So effortless, I love it :)

Nat is a great singer,but the Nina Simone's

version is much better

[bobbybeanroger]

LOve Nat. Love this version of the song too.

[kharris31]

Would rather hear Nat by himself, sorry Woody.

[amenssister]

thank you. and i have to agree with the Nina Simone comment. not better just her own.

ty spotgreen :D

[z978ady]

Great guitar too.

[Tabousingh]

This is a duet and Nat is only one of the voices. Who is the other?

[spotgreeen]

Woody Herman

perfection,rip nat.

[sassyreggae]

I love Nat, and this is cool in his "Nattish" style, but I have to say, Nina's version hits it out of the ballpark.

[screamgorgeous45]

wow.. to cool thx!!!

[affortunatus]

Thanks for share this marvelous version.

It inspired me to make my own with the LUCKY DUCKIES. Watch the video response!

Hello Folks, The Nat Cole trio had Oscar Moore and Moore's brother so..... They played with Charles Brown after wards. This is great! Thanks for posting. Jay

Hard to imagine that Nat was just a studio piano player. Story goes that a singer didnt show up for a session and they asked Nat if he would sing. The rest is history.

[coldplayismagic]

wow, really??? thats amazing :)

[calvinbeckett]

@md1960md Your facts are wrong. Nat Cole was a performer from the start. He was never a studio musician. He followed in the footsteps of his older brother Ike and younger brother Freddy followed Nat.

[Unclewich]

@calvinbeckett True, but he did sometimes work as a session musician...

Everybody had to eat...

Always a pleasure to hear Woody Herman singing...and this duet with Nat Cole is just wonderful.

[SpunkyBlunderbus]

wow, never knew he did it.

sounds like Herb Ellis on guitar, but probably isn't :)

[trevycoley83]

frankie lymon did a great version of this song too. on his london palladium album.

[AchillesShield]

Who's that singing with Nat?

[Unclewich]

That's bandleader Woody Herman...

You can find this track on the 1992 Capitol Blue Note release, 'Nat King Cole - Jazz Encounters'.
