Cole followed the next year with the album Natalie, further expanding the genres that she could cover with her voice and style on the funky Sophisticated Lady (She’s a Different Lady) (1976 / #25 Pop / #1 R&B) and the jazzy Mr. Meldoy (1976 / #49 Pop / #10 R&B). The album was a phenomenon, its appeal crossing audiences and generations; it collected a bevy of Grammy Awards, including Album, Record and Song of the Year (though the song Unforgettable was at that point four decades old). But she came through her father, and of course was connected to him – met so many great long-standing figures in popular music through him.
