"...if you haven't picked up every one of the Nat King Cole reissues you're really missing out!" - David W. Robinson, Positive Feedback
"...the Nat King Cole LPs are astonishingly beautiful, particularly played through my new Wilson Maxx3's. They make me cry." -LPReview
Casting early 20th Century works by "the Father of the Blues" with particularly smooth vocals by Nat King Cole and the resourceful orchestrations of Nelson Riddle resulted in this classic 1958 album, a worthy tribute to the W.C. Handy legacy. Never before has this record sounded so rich, with every detail and nuance restored in a manner that places you in the recording studio with Cole. Mastered from the original three-track analog master tapes at Acoustech by Steve Hoffman and Kevin Gray for an unparalleled sonic experience..
