Nat "King" Cole is widely known as a singer of "unforgettable" fame, but that he was a true "King of Jazz Piano" in its heyday and the
inventor of today's piano trios is almost
forgotten This
discography gives all
details of the King Cole Trio's activities,
listing recording sessions,
available broadcasts on discs, film soundtracks, and guest appearances by the trio or by Cole alone, on such shows as "Jubilee," "Command Performance," "Supper Club," "Mail Call," and "Kraft Music Hall." A special listing is included of those occasions when Cole participated as unknown or unnamed pianist on radio transcriptions for singers like Anita Boyer, Anita O'Day, The Dreamers, The Barrie Sisters, Bonnie Lake, Rose Murphy, Maxine Johnson, and Juanelda Carter. In addition, the book includes the Cole Trio's engagement routes with exact dates if known, names of promoters, and much more. The biographical portion is a fascinating period piece of Jazz-age memorabilia..
