The Very Best Of Nat King Cole [capitol]

Personnel: Nat "King" Cole; Harry "Sweets" Edison, The King Cole Trio. A single-disc anthology can't truly do justiceto the many facets of Nat King Cole's career, but the superlative 28-track THE VERY BEST OF NAT KING COLE makes an air-tight case for the crooner as one of the greatest pop singers of the pre-rock-&-roll era. All of his hits are here, including his signature songs "Unforgettable, " "Mona Lisa, " and the truly mysterious yet lovely "Nature Boy, " along with perhaps the definitive readings of the pop standard "Stardust" and the swing classic"Straighten Up and Fly Right. " It's impossible to go wrong here.
