Freddy Cole was the youngest of four brothers - Eddie (1910-1970), Nat (1919-1965), Ike (1927-2001), and Freddy (1931-2020) - who all played piano and sang, with similar timbres in their voices. Starting with Eddie, they each passed on their gifts to the other brothers. Though overshadowed by Nat's superstardom, they each enjoyed successful careers on their own and Freddy, perhaps because he was the youngest, eventually came to overdue prominence on his own. In this new Jasmine collection, we are happy to be able to include 12 of his early pop singles. These are quite rare and most have not been heard since their first release in the early 1950's, and joining them is Freddy's first stereo album from 1960. In his own words: "How am I different than Nat? That's for you to decide, but I feel there's a distinct difference," he said in 1995. "But I don't worry about it. What I worry about is sounding good. I go and play music and do the best show I can do. "No, he wasn't Nat, but he was Freddy and he left us a great legacy of wonderful recordings.
