Nat Cole was best known for his work in jazz piano, and he took to singing to get more air play for his piano work. That decision ended up making him a star. Today the round tower that is Capitol Records headquarters in Hollywood is known as the house that Cole built. This 1947 recording had Cole backed by his jazz trio. Note that Cole has moved away from the triple-time waltz meter in which the song was written and has stretched the line to duple-time.
