NAT KING COLE Forgotten 1949 Carnegie Hall Concert CD Offer

This rare, previously unissued concert recording features Nat King Cole and his trio live at the Carnegie Hall in November 1949. Also featured is the Woody Herman Orchestra who joined the trio for a spirited version of “How High the Moon”.

The 1949 Carnegie Hall concert is not mentioned in any discography and is barely mentioned in Cole’s biographies. The recording captures the Trio at its peak with Cole playing piano throughout and Irving Ashby on guitar, Joe Comfort on bass and Joe Costanzo on percussion. All the tunes are introduced by Cole and it conveys much of the atmosphere of that special night.
