BBC Documentary: Nat "King" Cole. How smooth can a singer be? Listen to Nat "King" Cole for the answer. Gliding through a sentimental tune like "Star Dust," accompanied by a string orchestra, his lighter-than-air baritone blooms effortlessly. Cole may have started out as a charming cocktail-lounge pianist with a delicate touch, but he developed into a master balladeer. Something extraordinary happened whenever he abandoned his spry jazz for love songs. By letting his smoky voice breathe easy passion, he made us fall head over heels for the idea of love.

Q Seeing Natalie Cole sing "with" her dad made me
wonder: did Nat King Cole ever have a TV show?

tainer to host his own series—The Nat King
Cole Show. Unfortunately, it lasted only a year.
