The Very Thought of You [Extra tracks] [Gold CD]

This 24-karat-gold audiophile version of a Nat "King" Cole classic does the smooth balladeer justice the way few other recordings can. A concept album filled with "timeless songs of love" and recorded in 1958, The Very Thought of You packs a wallop. Cole sings the title cut plus "But Beautiful," "I Wish I Knew the Way to Your Heart," and "The More I See You" backed by soft, lilting string arrangements. But the real instrument here, and the only one that really matters, is Cole's convincing-yet-cool vocal chords. DCC even includes two tunes recorded for, but left off of, the original LP--"Don't Blame Me" and "There Is No Greater Love"--making this set all the more tempting. All of these are tunes are worthy of Valentine's Day, but hide the chocolates, because they just might melt. --Jason Verlinde
