American singer and jazz pianist Nat King Cole released 28 studio albums and 1 live album. His career spanned almost three decades where he found success and recorded over 100 songs that became hits on the pop charts. Cole started his career as a jazz pianist in the late 1930s, when he formed the King Cole Trio, which became the top-selling group (and the only black act) on Capitol Records in the 1940s. Cole's trio was the model for small jazz ensembles that followed. Starting in 1950, he transitioned to become a solo singer billed as Nat King Cole.
Some of Cole's most notable singles include "Unforgettable", "Smile", "L-O-V-E", "Nature Boy", "When I Fall in Love", "Let There Be Love", "Mona Lisa", "Autumn Leaves", "Stardust", "Straighten Up and Fly Right", "The Very Thought of You", "For Sentimental Reasons", "Embraceable You" and "Almost Like Being in Love". His 1960 Christmas album The Magic of Christmas (also known as The Christmas Song), is the best-selling Christmas album released in the 1960s; and was ranked as one of the 40 essential Christmas albums (2019) by Rolling Stone.{{Cite magazine |last=Edwards |first=Gavin |date=2019-11-30 |title=40 Essential Christmas Albums |url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/40-essential-christmas-albums-35316/ |access-date=2021-12-24 |magazine=Rolling Stone |language=en-US}} In 2022, Cole's recording of "The Christmas Song", broke the record for the longest journey to the top ten on the Billboard Hot 100, when it peaked at number nine, 62 years after it debuted on the chart; and was selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the United States National Recording Registry.{{Cite web |last=Garcia |first=Thania |date=2023-01-03 |title=SZA's 'SOS' Rules Album Chart for Third Week; Nat King Cole's 'Christmas Song' Finally Hits Top 10 After 62 Years |url=https://variety.com/2023/music/news/sza-sos-top-album-chart-billboard-holiday-music-1235477689/ |access-date=2023-08-16 |website=Variety}}{{Cite magazine |date=2022-04-13 |title=Alicia Keys, Ricky Martin, Wu-Tang Clan & More Selected for 2022 National Recording Registry: See the Full List |url=https://www.billboard.com/music/awards/alici2022-national-recording-registry-inductions-full-list-1235057483/ |access-date=2023-08-16 |magazine=Billboard}}
