Nat King Cole has been one of my favorites since my youth. His phrasing was exquisite - perhaps the best of his era. I can't believe he's been gone for almost 50 years - he was still cranking out hits in the 60's.

Another of many things that were right in my youth that are forever gone.



America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!

Eagles Up! Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Cole was also one of best pianists in the game.

(I'm amazed I can do all this just from memory.)
