Unforgettable Songs by Natalie Cole

Advantages: Very memorable songs
Disadvantages: None

...success. And now we have STILL UNFORGETTABLE-another compendium that is definitely fabulous! Fabulous is one word I can muster for this work of art by Natalie Cole. Who doesn't know Natalie after she recorded the song UNFORGETTABLE which, she admits, altered the course of her career way back in 1991. Nat "King" Cole was her father, the crowned king of balladeers in the music's kingdom hall of fame where the likes of Bing Crosby, Billie Holiday, and ...
...The influence of her father still suspires with her music now, and it was the recording of the song Unforgettable that sent her delving for the best pieces in the Great American Songbook, choosing the best and memorable music not only from her father but also from other great legends such as Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis, among others. After the phenomenal success of the 1991 album, she waited for the proper timing to come up with another reinvention ...

Review of Still Unforgettable - Natalie Cole

A Beautiful Reminder!

Advantages: Her voice and choice of songs, especially the "duet" with her father
Disadvantages: If you don't like these old songs, you might not enjoy this album, but you'd be cheating yourself if you didn't try

The late, great, Nat King Cole was a man with a golden throat, whose voice could soothe and caress. Once you've heard his voice, you'll never forget it, and its velvet quality. My mother adored listening to Nat King Cole's music, and I have always thought it was a shame that the only time I "saw" him was in the movie "Cat Ballou" where he and Stubby Kaye sang the narration for the film (it's a great film, by the way) and I understand Cole passed ...
...was an outstanding performer and his legacy lives on - both in the Nat King Cole Society (http://www.nat-king-cole.org/) as well as in his daughter - Natalie Cole. It was therefore very fitting for me to be introduced to his daughter's voice via the CD "Unforgettable" - which is a tribute to her father's music. The title of this CD is doubly appropriate. Firstly because through this disk, Natalie has helped keep alive the memory of her father and ...

...lts of effort put into it in order to make it sound much more than your average, quickly-thrown-together Christmas album as we get thoughtful production that mixes in the contemporary R&B trends with the Christmas-y themes for a big opener that I can't find any faults with. **Five Stars** 2.“Christmas In Jamaica” As things move on, we see there here we get what was the second album from the record and a joint that has her linking up with the Dancehall ...
