Freddy Cole / The Bill Charlap Trio: Music Maestro Please
by Andrew Velez
"How's it going? Let's talk some. That's the kind of atmosphere Freddy Cole sings. He's casual, chatty and comforting, like a good old friend. A bit more gravel in his voice these days only adds to the warmth of his style. In a choice set of selections from the Great American Songbook there are some particular ...

Freddy Cole: Because of You: Freddy Cole Sings Tony Bennett
by Andrew Rowan
Confession, they say, is good for the soul. So this reviewer must confess to only a recent realization of Freddy Cole's extraordinary talent. Simply put, he knows how to do it; this tribute to another singer who gets it--Tony Bennett--is touching. Cole's relaxed, bluesy approach, enhanced by those cracks in his voice, is ...

Freddy Cole: The Cole Nobody Knows
by Jim Santella
Freddy Cole The Cole Nobody Knows Plan B Productions 2005 Nat King Cole was unforgettable. His shadow extended far and wide. But, no one ever intended for that shadow to obscure the careers of Natalie, Ike, Eddie or Freddy Cole. Their talents overlap somewhat, but there's never been ...
Freddy Cole: This Love of Mine
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

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 ...
