A Top 10 US R&B hit written by Cole with her then husband, Marvin Yancy, ‘Stand By Me’ is a driving piece of sanctified soul music whose theme is faith and fidelity. Taken from Cole’s fifth Capitol album, I Love You So, the song featured brass and string charts by noted Motownarranger Paul Riser.
Natalie Cole had at first been keen to play down her connection to her father, but on her 1987 album, Everlasting, she served up this tribute, repurposing one of Nat King Cole’s iconic ballads as a slinky, midtempo soul groove. (It’s Kenny G, by the way, who’s responsible for the saxophone solo.)
One of Cole’s most jubilant, uplifting songs, this paean to gratitude was never issued as a single but remained one of the go-to cuts on the singer’s fourth Capitol album, the platinum-selling Thankful. Sounding steeped in the Baptist church, Cole’s vocals ride an addictively funky undertow driven by Marvin Yancy’s organ and garnished with Michael ...
Capitol Records teamed Cole up with labelmate and rising soul star Peabo Bryson on the album We’re The Best Of Friends, which peaked at No.7 in the US R&B albums chart in 1980. The lead single from it, the upbeat dancer ‘Gimme Some Time’, on which the two vocalists combine their voices wonderfully, was also a Top 10 R&B smash.
Natalie Cole first recorded with her father on the Yuletide album The Magic Of Christmas, when she was six, but by the time her career launched in 1975, Nat had been dead 20 years. In 1919, when she left EMI for Elektra, Natalie recorded Unforgettable… With Love, a collection of jazz standards previously recorded by her father. Via studio wizardry,...
This cut is a fan favourite from Cole’s Everlastingalbum. She wrote the song, a delectable Latin-flavoured tune, with her uncle Eddie Cole, who also arranged it. The performance is sublime and enhanced by a guest appearance from Latin legend José Feliciano on guitar and vocals. The song was twice issued as B-side, backing ‘Jump Start’ and ‘I Live F...
Cole shows her sensual side on this powerful declaration of all-consuming love that was the closing cut on her debut album, Inseparable. An immersive waltz-time ballad from Chuck Jackson and Marvin Yancy, the singer’s expressive gospel-reared vocals are counterpointed by an uncredited tenor saxophonist on the intro, who weaves gorgeous melodies aro...
After leaving Capitol in 1983, Natalie Cole spent a couple of unspectacular years at the Epic and Modern labels before getting back into her stride when she joined EMI’s Manhattan imprint, four years later. Released in the summer of 1987, the dancefloor-friendly ‘Jump Start’ – written and produced by Vincent and Reggie Calloway – revived the singer...
Natalie Cole headed to the dancefloor with this, her sixth single: a frothy disco tune taken from her Unpredictablealbum. It’s a hedonistic, feel-good anthem driven by a turbo-charged rhythm section. Written by jazz pianist Tennyson Stephens, who, two years earlier, released a collaboration with guitarist Phil Upchurch for the Kudu label, ‘Party Li...
After the astounding feat of scoring three consecutive No.1 R&B singles, this sleek, Latin-tinged, disco-inflected tune proved something of a commercial disappointment when it didn’t progress beyond the No.10 spot in the US charts. The parent album, however, became Natalie, Cole’s second gold record.
