Natalie Cole, the Grammy-winning singer who had hits with such songs as "This Will Be" and "Our Love" and recorded "Unforgettable ... With Love," a best-selling album of songs made famous by her late father, Nat King Cole, died Thursday evening. She was 65. Cole's death was confirmed by publicist Maureen O'Connor. Notables were quick to express their condolences. ::snipping3:: Born in 1950, Cole grew up among musical royalty. Her father was one of the most accomplished singers and jazz musicians of the postwar era, and her mother, Maria Hawkins Cole, was a singer for Duke Ellington. Their house, in Los Angeles' upscale Hancock Park neighborhood, was a regular spot for her parents' colleagues. "I remember meeting Peggy Lee, Danny Thomas, Lena Horne, Dorothy Dandridge, Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong and so many others at parties," she told The Wall Street Journal in 2014. Tony Bennett, who also knew many of the legends of that era, expressed his sadness on Instagram on Friday. http://www.cnn.com/2016/01/01/entertainment/natalie-cole-death/ |
