Overview
Draws on the memories of family, friends and fellow musicians; a fascinating account of a man as unforgettable as his music. When Nat King Cole died in 1965, he had become a musical legend. However, an extreme paradox existed for this incredibly talented man: that of being a black star in a racist society. While white audiences adored him onstage, they didn't like his daughters eating in the dining rooms and he could never be sure of getting a room in a good hotel. Though saddened by life, Cole never grew embittered; he suffered in silence and with dignity. And in his music he has left behind a legacy of love that he has proved timeless. B&W photos.
