Rare Nat King Cole Photo
This rare photo of Nat Cole came from the scrapbook of my guitar teacher John Collins. John was Nat’s guitarist from 1951-1965 and also played with Art Tatum, Billie Holiday, Slam Stewart, Dizzy Gillespie, and many other pioneers of swing & bebop. This photo was taken while on tour in 1959 and is a rare glimpse of a very informal Nat Cole behind the scenes.
