Natalie Cole: Thankful- Expanded Edition CD

Natalie Cole was enjoying international success in 1977 when Capitol Records issued her third album, THANKFUL.

Like its predecessors, the LP was produced by the Chicago team of Chuck Jackson & Marvin Yancy and contained a number of Natalie's own compositions including the USTop 10 R&Bhit, Annie Mae.

A US Top 20 pop and Top 5 R&B charted album, THANKFUL (long out of print on CD) was certified platinum and boasted the US million-selling R&BNo. 1 and No. 15 pop single, Our Love.

This reissue is the second Cole album from SoulMusic.com Records following the February 2011 release of Natalie Live (SMCR-5009D) Key cuts on THANKFUL include the gospel-driven title track; the smooth quiet storm -flavoured Cole fan favourite, La Costa (co-written by Natalie and her then-musical director Linda Williams); the jazzy Lovers (another tune co-penned by Natalie); and the Cole composition, the heartfelt Keeping A Light.
