Unforgettable!
Natalie Cole, 1950 - 2015
A very talented family. We got to know Nat's brother Ike who sang in the piano lounge of a Phoenix resort back in the late 90's. We returned a few years in a row just to hear Ike sing and to chat with him during breaks.
Love it !
ReplyDeleteSo very young and such a loss. Beautiful voice.
ReplyDeleteSo sad only 65 years old. Did you see Dal Richards passed away too.He was a little older. 97 I think.
ReplyDeleteYes, we saw that. One of Norma's roommates from the 60's sang in his band. A great guy.
DeleteSaw that early this morning and had to read it, I couldn´t believe it. Once I had read what she had gone through I got it. RIP
ReplyDeleteLosing Dal Richards and Natalie is sad. Their music lives on.
ReplyDeleteShocked and saddened to discover the news.
ReplyDeleteSuch a loss at a young age. Personally we are affected by Dal Richards passing, we did a lot of dancing with his band.
ReplyDeleteSad news. The Coles were an institution at Capitol Records. Father and daughter died too young. Nat died at 45!
