I bought this solely because of the use Wong Kar-Wai made of this music in his films, chiefly of course In the Mood for Love but I was very pleased to find also on this album tracks that were featured in Days of Being Wild, a film that runs a close second to ITMFL. In particular, 'Perfidia' which is the music he uses when he pans across the Thai jungle scenery at the start and finish of the movie. The album is a collection of gorgeously nostalgic songs that resonate on many levels and bring back memories of childhood in the 50's when parents and friends played such songs on their old gramophones. It's fabulous, exotic, escapist stuff. Yes, his Spanish accent leaves a little to be desired but with a voice like that, who's really complaining?
March 11, 2008After many attemps to try and find this Cd in Europe and Australia wide,I was very pleased to have found it on Amazon .It was easy and hassle free.I am enjoying listening to this Cd and will do so for many more years.
March 9, 2007If your a Nat King Cole fan, and a Spanish Language music fan..you will love this...there is a certain charm in the way he pronounces the spanish, but NAT COMES THROUGH....I wish he had done more in this genra...some of this Mexican music is the very best...

A clarification, for those who think: 'I can't ABIDE bad accents!' What people are commenting on in these reviews may be described better as a less subtle or legato phrasing than his English style, tending to over-separate words and overemphasize consonants. In listening to these songs, I don't hear any words that are 'mispronounced' by most people's standards; there simply is an overall impression of a vaguely 'foreign' sound.
It does mar the performance slightly for those of us who treasure Nat King Cole for his smooth and seemingly effortless delivery. But don't let anyone's comments turn you away without listening to the samples for yourself. You may find yourself carried away after all.
July 19, 2006I remember as a kid living in Colombia when this album came out. Some of the songs were current at the time and several others were old Latin American classics. Nevertheless, what made this album so great was Nat "King" Cole's terrific voice and his phonetic Spanish with a very heavy American English accent, which made it that much appealing. Every song was beautifully rendered. Great memories from a bygone era!
