http://t1.g.hjfile.cn/listen/201302/201302241043392189213.mp3Nat King Cole was born in the southern city of Montgomery, Alabama, in 1919. His parents named him Nathaniel Adams Coles. His father was a Christian minister. When Nathaniel was four years old, his parents moved the family north to Chicago, Illinois. Nat learned to play the piano when he was very young. His mother was the only piano teacher he ever had. He gave his first public performance when he was four. By the time he was 12, Nat was playing piano at his father's church.
Nat played piano in New York City and in Los Angeles, California when he was a young man. In 1937, he formed a group that played jazz music. Oscar Moore played the guitar and Wesley Prince played the bass. The trio reportedly did not need a drummer because Nat's piano playing kept the beat so well. They named the group, The King Cole Trio. At the same time, Nat also changed his name into Nat King Cole. The trio soon became very popular. Nat sang some songs, but mostly played the piano.
