Back to the heart of this collection today with a classic star.

Nat King Cole
Ramblin’ Rose

Music for the album was conducted by Belford Hendricks. My interesting tid bit about Hendricks is that he went by multiple names to avoid conflict between his own compositions during the high point of his career. Quite cool really.
