Thanks for this one. Always on the lookout for some Nat Cole I don't have. "When I Grow Too Old To Dream" is a gem. Glad I can hear it now. About 10 year ago I picked up a record called "The Piano Style of Nat "King" Cole" it totally changed my appriciation for him and made me a big fan of more than his great voice.
