Considering how well he improvised at the piano, Nat King Coles rise to fame was
gruelingly gradual. Volume Two in the Classics Nat King Cole chronology contains
all of the recordings he made between July 22, 1940 and March 14, 1941. His
trio, a sharp little unit containing guitarist Oscar Moore and string bassist
Wesley Prince, spent much of the year 1940 holding down a steady gig in the
Radio Room, a small club located at 1539 Vine Street in Hollywood. It was there
that they polished their act to perfection, ignored by both the public at large
and the major record labels. As King Coles Swingsters, they did manage to cut a
small number of records for the Davis & Schwegler transcription service, a
sleazy little fly by night outfit that soon went bankrupt, leaving the
recordings unreleased and the musicians unpaid. Cole sued and was ultimately
granted the princely sum of $7.47 to compensate himself and his group for an
entire days work. These are the circumstances behind the first 12 tracks on this
compilation. Cole sings on four of them, Maxene Johnson (who also recorded with
Franz Jackson and Count Basie) sings four and the remaining four titles are
instrumental. The King Cole Trio started working for Decca on December 6, 1940.
Sweet Lorraine is the first example on record of Nat King Cole as a fully
developed mellifluous crooner; everything he previously recorded in this vein
was preliminary. Gone with the Draft proves that United States citizens were
bracing for participation in global warfare almost exactly one year before the
Japanese air force bombed the U.S. military installations in Hawaiis Pearl
Harbor. Honeysuckle Rose is one of the greatest jazz piano trio recordings of
its time. When the Trio returned to the Decca studio three months later they cut
four more fine sides, rendering up group vocals on Babs and Scotchin with the
Soda. Everything was in place for this little group to enjoy success, but their
progress would not be easy, for Nat Coles career was rife with complications and
challenges.
