    Too often today, performers act like they're bestowing us an honor just by their presence. These entertainers truly gave of themselves, more and more again.

    No wonder the Mills Brothers staid together for so many decades. They were the most relaxed group ever to appear on stage. And Nat King Cole also had a wonderfully easygoing presence. I miss that.

    • @fromthesidelines
      @fromthesidelines Před 2 lety +4

      In the fall of 1957, Nat was presented on a "co-op" basis; that is, different regional advertisers placed commercials during the show (in New York, Rheingold beer not only sponsored Nat, he also appeared in at least one "integrated" commercial for them during the program). But the network wanted to *SELL* the time slot [Tuesdays, 7:30pm(et)] to a national sponsor- featuring someone who wasn't black. They offered him a "fringe" time period on Saturdays at 7pm; Carlos Gastel, Nat's agent, insisted he wouldn't accept that. NBC gave him a "take it or leave it" attitude; Nat "left it", because he was tired of fighting with them over the small production budget he was forced to stage his show with, and their not doing enough to "sell" him to a major sponsor. The following week's program was the last of the series.
