Freddy Cole: This Love of Mine

Read "This Love of Mine" reviewed by Andrew Rowan


Freddy Cole has crafted a marvelous performance with This Love of Mine. He mingles old warhorses, giving them new clothes and offers newer songs, making them sound ageless. Here and there the voice sounds frayed but it only adds to his authority. The afterglow that the session radiates makes it a keeper. The ...

Freddy Cole: Waiter Ask The Man to Play the Blues

Read "Waiter Ask The Man to Play the Blues" reviewed by Javier AQ Ortiz


Originally released either in 1956, according to Freddy Cole's official website, or 1964, per the reissue's information, Waiter Ask The Man to Play the Blues: Freddie Cole Sings & Plays Some Lonely Ballads isn't--as the title might tempt one to think--an exercise in despondent blues and wrist slashing. Actually, it has plenty of tight, low, sizzling ...

Freddy Cole: I'm Not My Brother, I'm Me

Read "I'm Not My Brother, I'm Me" reviewed by Joel Roberts


Despite its unfortunate title, I'm Not My Brother, I'm Me is much more a tribute to Nat “King" Cole from younger brother Freddy Cole than a declaration of Freddy's independence. A fine singer and pianist in his own right, Freddy has spent his career in the shadow of his much better-known sibling - ...

Freddy Cole: Rio de Janeiro Blue

Read "Rio de Janeiro Blue" reviewed by AAJ Staff


The confluence of Freddy Cole's style with the appeal of Brazilian music seems such a natural that one wonders why it didn't happen before. But the confluence finally does happen on Rio de Janeiro Blue as Cole elucidates the connection between tunes from the American songbook and the emotional significance of Brazilian tunes.That connection, ...

Freddy Cole: Merry Go Round

Read "Merry Go Round" reviewed by AAJ Staff


There's the eternal question of what makes a jazz singer. (Well, it's not really eternal, but in jazz years, it might as well be.) Is a jazz singer one who adopts instrumental phrasing, even though many jazz musicians swear that they are trying to simulate the human voice in turn? Is a jazz singer one who ...
