Nat King Cole Nature Boy

Nature Boy was written by Eden Ahbez, one of the strangest songwriters of the preHippie era. He was a beatnik poet, a protoHippie with long hair, a full beard, and routinely dressed in long, white, flowing garments. He lived in Griffith Park in Los Angeles, ate fruit, vegetables and nuts. Ahbez was born in Brooklyn in 1908 and died, March 4, 1995. This Spadecaller music video features the paintings of Bouguereau, Chagall, Da Vinci, Lenbach, Mesdag, Rembrandt, and Sargent.
