Cole, the daughter of jazz and pop
legend Nat "King" Cole, has forged a
successful career in two phases, doing
R&B/urban contemporary and then
jazz-based pop. She made her stage debut
at age 11 and sang in college. Cole met
the writing and producing team of Chuck
Jackson and Marvin Yancey in 1973. The
next year they collaborated on some
sessions that were recorded at Curtis
Mayfield's Curtom studios in Chicago.
These helped her land a deal with
Capitol, and she teamed with
Jackson/Yancey for a string of hit
albums and singles from 1975 until 1983
that yielded five number one R&B hits
including "This Will Be, "Inseparable,"
"Our Love," and "I've Got Love on My
Mind." She scored more hits with "Jump
Start," "I Live for Your Love," and
"Over You" in 1987, and "Pink Cadillac,"
a cover of a Bruce Springsteen tune, in
1988, and then made her stylistic shift.
Cole eased into the transition with
"When I Fall in Love," a number her
father recorded in 1957. It was included
on her 1987 LP, Everlasting. She fully
embraced the move with the 1991 LP
Unforgettable with Love, earning Grammy
awards and landing a number-one pop
album that eventually sold over five
million copies.
