''The Nat King Cole Story'' is a 1961 album by Nat King Cole. The album was a retrospective of Cole's recording career, designed to present many of his earlier hits in new recordings featuring stereo sound. Cole is accompanied on the re-recordings by many of the notable arrangers and bands that had appeared with him on the original records.〔 Of particular note is Cole's re-recording of "The Christmas Song". This was Cole's fourth, and final, recording of the song, and also the first version recorded in stereo. This recording of the song was subsequently added to a 1963 reissue of Cole's 1960 LP ''The Magic of Christmas'' (the album concurrently retitled ''The Christmas Song'' and given new cover art), and remains one of Cole's best-known recordings and among the most-played Christmas tunes on radio each December. At the 4th Grammy Awards, ''The Nat King Cole Story'' was nominated for the Grammy Award for Album of the Year. == Track listing == Disc 1 # "Straighten Up and Fly Right" (Nat King Cole, Irving Mills) – 2:36 # "Sweet Lorraine" (Cliff Burwell, Mitchell Parish) – 3:22 # "It's Only a Paper Moon" (Harold Arlen, Yip Harburg, Billy Rose) – 2:57 # "(Get Your Kicks on) Route 66" (Bobby Troup) – 2:56 # "(I Love You) For Sentimental Reasons" (William Best, Deek Watson) – 3:04 # "The Christmas Song (Merry Christmas to You)" (Mel Tormé, Robert Wells) – 3:11 # "Nature Boy" (Eden Ahbez) – 2:53 # "Lush Life" (Billy Strayhorn) – 3:46 # "Calypso Blues" (Cole, D.W.
