COLE, Nat "King"
Vol.1, 1955-1959 11-CD Box & 208-Page-Book

Nat King Cole (1919-1965) was the most popular male singer of his generation, and, along with Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley, one of the four best known male vocalists of all time. Making Cole's story all the more remarkable, he began his career not as a pop singer but as one of the greatest of all jazz pianists. Yet by the time he had made the transition from jazz to pop, he had sold more records and racked up more hit singles than anyone in the immediate post-war era, even Frank Sinatra. He was also the first Afro-American pop music superstar - and still the greatest. -- This Bear Family box contains Cole's complete recordings, all done for Capitol Records, of the years 1955-1959. The 11 CDs and 298 tracks contain a combination of Cole's most famous and most obscure work. -- The set includes all the material for no less than 16 classic Nat King Cole albums: The two piano-centric albums of 1955-'56: 'The Piano Style' (with Nelson Riddle) and 'After Midnight' (with Sweets Edison, Juan Tizol, Willie and Stuff Smith) as well as the 'bonus session' for 'Penthouse Serenade.' The 1955 albums with Nelson Riddle, 'Night Lights' and the 'bonus session' for 'Two In Love.' The two classic albums with Jenkins, 'Love Is The Thing' (1956) and 'The Very Thought Of You' (1958), as well as the spiritual album with Jenkins, 'Every Time I Feel The Spirit' (1958). Nat's great jazz-ballad album with Billy May, 'Just One Of Those Things.' King Meets Count! Cole's classic meeting with the Count Basie Orchestra, 'Welcome To The Club' (1958), and another great album of swinging standards from the same year arranged by Dave Cavanaugh, 'Tell Me All About Yourself.' Two best-selling albums recorded for the Latin-American market of classic Latin songs sung in Spanish, 'Cole Espanol' (1958) and 'A Mis Amigos' (1959). Two masterpiece albums with Nelson Riddle, 'To Whom It May Concern' and his magnificent album of W. C. Handy classics, 'St. Louis Blues,' both from 1958. The rock-inspired material that was later collected in the 'Looking Back' compilation LP, issued here for the first time without the dreadful overdubbed rhythm sections that were added after Cole died in 1965. -- In addition to these classic albums, the box contains nearly a hundred singles, which range from major hits like 'Ballerina', 'Looking Back' and 'Non Dimenticar' to some of the rarest recordings in his career, including many selections previously only heard as singles and EPs. All selections are presented without the overdubs that were often artificially imposed in the mid-'60s. -- The 208-page hardcover book contains the most complete discography by Russ Wapensky, Jordan Taylor, Michel Ruppli & Richard Weize ever done of Cole's Capitol recordings in this period, along with hundreds of rare photographs of recording sessions from the Capitol archive, and reproductions of album and EP covers, and other Cole memorabilia and paraphernalia. The comprehensive liner notes are the work of Will Friedwald, that well-known Famous Author Dude. -- This is the first of two Bear Family boxes devoted to Nat King Cole, the second covers his final five years of recording (1960-1964) and together will form the definitive statement of the last and most amazing decade of one of the greatest stars of all time.

English:
Nat King Cole war der populärste Sänger seiner Zeit und ' gemeinsam mit Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra und Elvis Presley ' einer der vier bekanntesten Sänger der Geschichte. Was Coles Erfolgs-Story noch bemerkenswerter macht: Er begann seine Karriere nicht im Pop-Bereich, sondern als einer der versiertesten Jazz-Pianisten, die es je gab. Bereits als er den Übergang vom Jazz zum Pop vollzog, hatte er mehr Platten verkauft und mehr Hits gelandet als jeder andere Künstler der Nachkriegszeit ' und übertraf dabei sogar Frank Sinatra. Außerdem war Cole der erste afro-amerikanische Pop-Superstar, und auch hier ist er bis heute die Nr. 1. -- Die vorliegende Bear-Family-Box enthält sämtliche Cole-Einspielungen für Capitol Records aus den Jahren 1955 bis 1959. Die 11 CDs mit 293 Aufnahmen präsentieren Nats berühmteste, aber auch obskurste Arbeiten. Die Box deckt das komplette Song-Material von nicht weniger als 16 Originalalben von Nat King Cole ab: Die beiden Klavier-orientierten LPs von 1955/56: 'The Piano Style' (mit Nelson Riddle) und 'After Midnight' (mit Sweets Edison, Juan Tizol, Willie und Stuff Smith). Dazu die Bonus-Session zu 'Penthouse Serenade'. Die 1955er-Alben mit Nelson Riddle, 'Nite Lights' und die Extra-Session zu 'Two In Love'. Die beiden Album-Klassiker mit Jenkins, 'Love Is The Thing' (1956) und 'The Very Thought Of You' (1958); außerdem die Spirituals-LP 'Everytime I Feel The Spirit' (1958; ebenfalls mit Gordon Jenkins). Nats phantastische LP mit Jazz-Balladen, 'Just One Of Those Things', entstanden in Zusammenarbeit mit Billy May. Der 'King' trifft den 'Count'! Coles überragende Kooperation mit dem Count Basie Orchestra, 'Welcome To The Club' (1958) sowie ein weiteres Top-Album mit Swing-Standards aus demselben Jahr: 'Tell Me All About Yourself', arrangiert von Dave Cavanaugh. Die beiden Bestseller-Alben für den lateinamerikanischen Markt mit Latin-Songs in spanischer Sprache: 'Cole Espanol' (1958) und 'A Mis Amigos' (1959). Zwei Meisterwerke mit Nelson Riddle: 'To Whom It May Concern' und 'St. Louis Blues', das wunderbare Album mit Klassikern von W. C. Handy, beide aus dem Jahr 1958. Das Rock-inspirierte Material, das später als Compilation 'Looking Back' auf den Markt kam ' hier jedoch erstmals ohne die grauenhafte, nach Coles Tod 1965 hinzugemischte Rhythmusgruppe. -- Zusätzlich zu all diesen überragenden Alben enthält die Box annähernd 100 Singles: Darunter sind Top-Hits wie 'Ballerina', 'Looking Back' und 'Non Dimenticar', aber auch einige der seltensten Aufnahmen aus Coles Karriere ' etliche davon sind bislang nur auf Vinyl-Singles und -EPs erhältlich gewesen. Alle Titel sind von den lästigen Overdubs befreit, die sehr häufig zur künstlichen Verstärkung auf die Originale draufgepappt wurden. -- Das 208-seitige Hardcover-Buch glänzt mit der bis heute umfangreichsten Discographie über Coles Capitol-Jahre, sie wurde von Russ Wapensky, Jordan Taylor, Michel Ruppli und Richard Weize zusammengestellt. Außerdem gibt es Hunderte seltenster Fotos aus dem Capitol-Archiv mit Motiven von den Aufnahme-Sessions. Darüberhinaus zeigt das Buch ebenfalls Hunderte von LP- und EP-Covers, seltene Label-Abbildungen sowie weitere persönliche Erinnerungsstücke zu Leben und Werk Nat King Coles. Der umfassende Buchtext stammt von Will Friedwald. -- Dies ist die erste von zwei Bear-Family-Boxen über den großen Nat King Cole; die beschäftigt sich mit den letzten fünf Aufnahmejahren. Beide zusammen ergeben die umfassendste Ausgabe der letzten (und aufregendsten) Schaffens-Periode eines der größten Stars der Musikgeschichte.
