Here's a video of my grandfather, Reunald Jones, one of the greatest trumpet players of the 20th century, w/ Nat King Cole doing "Only A Paper Moon". This was performed on the television special, "An Evening With Nat King Cole" for the Queen on the BBC in 1961. This is actually an updated version of the previous video I put in. The previous version was a really poor copy, but new software allowed for this.

  • Great, thanks for sharing this treasure :-)

  • Amazing is 2:54 --------.

  • Any chance you could post the song "Here's That Rainy Day" from this performance? As far as I'm aware, this is the only recording of the song he made.

  • Great clip! One correction: the packaging of this video incorrectly cites 1961 as the date of recording. It was actually recorded in July 1963 during Cole's tour of England. It's significant because it was his last time there -- and only a year and a half before his death at 45.

  • I caught your first version and was pleased as punch...

    You did your grandfather proud with your second edition. We can really discern what he's doing on trumpet in this version, not to mention Cole & Collins...

    Thanks a bunch!
