Here's a great clip from the #NatKingCole Show in the 50's featuring musicians from #NormanGranz 's #JazzAtThePhilharmonic #JATP group including but not limited to Oscar Peterson, Ray Brown, Herb Ellis, Stan Getz, Illinois Jacquet, Coleman Hawkins, Jo Jones & Roy Eldridge.
Most people don't know that #Nat got his start in jazz as a piano player & transitioned to being popular music singer.
There are some get sets w/Nat featuring a variety of JATP musicians which are timeless.
This early 50' period in jazz is called #Modern but I call it #Timeless bc it is my favorite period in American jazz history.
Nat's performance of "Paper Moon" & "Tenderly" are classic.
