TheMusicalMarine Posted March 9, 2005 Report Posted March 9, 2005 When I go home on leave, Freddy Cole will be doing a couple of shows at a local venue. Have any of you seen him or heard his music? Worth seeing if the price is reasonable? Thanks Quote
kh1958 Posted March 9, 2005 Report Posted March 9, 2005 (edited) I haven't seen him live, but I have a couple of his records and like him. He's Nat King Cole's brother and there is definitely a strong family resemblance, but Freddie Cole's voice is gruffer/a bit rougher than Nat King Cole's voice. He mostly sings standards and also plays the piano. I would go see him if I had the chance. Edited March 9, 2005 by kh1958 Quote
Elissa Posted March 11, 2005 Report Posted March 11, 2005 I've seen him a few times and would indeed recommend the show. Sensual, articulate, swinging; an intimacy with and command of the idiom rare today. Quote
