Nat is not only King of singers, King of players, King of small bands - but also King of accompanists! Interesting comparison to (also great) Teddy Wilson accompanying Lester.
Pres lived across Broadway from Birdland in 1959, I never had the chance to meet him or see him perform. His Music lives on and it is in honor of his Artistry. Rest Easy Mr. President!
There are lots of pianists who sound very similar. Only the truly great ones have their own unmistakable styles. Nobody can take Nat King Cole for somebody else. He got sounds and phrases out of the piano which nobody else ever had.
