Nat King Cole 10 CD-set (membran)

Nat King Cole 10 CD-set (membrane)

ジャズっぽい Nat King Cole に関してはほぼコンプリート(?)だと思います。
King Cole Trio に関して関心があり、といってもレコード、CDを集めまくるほどの興味はないという方、これは絶対お買い得です。買って後悔はしません。

Disc 1
　ナット・キング・コールの最初期のものが1～16。

Disc 2～Disc 8
　1-17～2-18が King Cole Trio。ベースがWesley Prince。私のこの頃のものが大好きです。黒人臭さがぷんぷん。私が初めて聞いた キング・コール は例のストリングスがふんだんに入った「枯れ葉」でした。ほんとうの黒人音楽にたどり着くのにどれだけ年月が必要だったことか。

　2-9～2-12、ジャズをやっても一流です。

　2-15からが黄金のキング・コール・トリオ。この洗練ぐあいもまた黒人音楽のエッセンス。
　あとは説明の必要もないでしょう。9-11まで続きます。（あいだに少しジャズをはさみますが）
　たまにはサックスを入れるとか、ギターをドラムスにかえるとかの変化をつけてもいいのじゃないかとも思うけれど、LP感覚で聞くからかもしれません。シングル感覚で１曲だけ選びだして聞けばいいのです。iTunes のランダム機能で、ジェームズ・ブラウンの次に King Cole Trio が流れたときのホッとした感じ、最高です。

Disc 9～Disc 10
　9-12からはトリオのマンネリの反動か、オーケストラ入りとなります。この落差、私、ちょっと付いていけません。
