Released: May 1957
Label: Capitol Records
Nat Cole teams up with the good-humored arranger Billy May to put a positive spin on wrist-slashers, the kind of downbeat standards that you want to hear when things go terrible wrong in your life. The tension between lyrical defeat and the upbeat jazzy tone of the set works well, while Cole's pure ballad reading of "These Foolish Things" is just exquisite. This is a special one in Cole's catalog -- the tone treats romantic disappointment with a "Gee, isn't life funny" shrug of the shoulders.
