Description:He Was The King is an album by Freddy Cole, released in 2016. The album is a jazz CD. -
When Freddy Cole is asked why he is finally releasing a tribute to his legendary older brother, who left this world 50 years ago, his answer is hardly surprising. "Because I felt the time was right." Anytime is the right time for a new Freddy Cole CD but this one is particularly welcome. The first thing you notice is the way that Freddy and friends, especially tenor titan Houston Person, address the entire breadth and scope of the Cole Songbook. Freddy sings everything from jazz standards to luminescent ballads. He reinterprets songs from his brother's early jazz period as well his more mature years as a chart-topping pop headliner. His selections range from the most famous Nat King Cole songs, like "Sweet Lorraine," to the relatively obscure, such as the hard-swinging and rhythmically righteous "That's My Girl." So here is what is sure to be the definitive Nat King Cole tribute album. It was certainly worth the wait.
"He Was The King" is a captivating CD by the acclaimed jazz vocalist and pianist Freddy Cole, released under the respected High Note label. This album stands as a heartfelt tribute to his legendary brother, Nat King Cole, featuring soulful renditions of classics associated with Nat's illustrious career. Freddy Cole?s warm voice and sophisticated piano style breathe new life into timeless standards such as "Mona Lisa," "Nature Boy," and "Straighten Up and Fly Right." With decades of experience in the jazz world, Freddy has carved out his own legacy while honoring his family's musical heritage. Over his prolific career, he has been nominated for Grammy Awards and praised worldwide for his elegant interpretations and emotive performances. High Note Records is renowned for its dedication to authentic jazz recordings, supporting both established icons and emerging talents within the genre.
