Oscar Moore's rhythm was so solid they didn't need a drummer. WHITEHEAD: The trio fit Nat King Cole like a tux.

(SOUNDBITE OF NAT KING COLE TRIO SONG, "I FOUND A NEW BABY") Almost all the music is by the Cole Trio, but there are a couple of small groups with top tenor saxophonists - Lester Young, or this one, Dexter Gordon. It's called "Hittin' The Ramp: The Early Years (1936 - 1943)" from the Resonance label. WHITEHEAD: The Nat King Cole Trio in 1939, before Oscar Moore switched to electric guitar - this music's from a seven-CD roundup of stuff Cole recorded before signing with Capitol Records, where he became a star.

WHITEHEAD: Nat Cole's career didn't really get going till a couple of years later after he'd moved to Los Angeles. (SOUNDBITE OF EDDIE COLE'S SOLID SWINGERS' "THUNDER") Here's Cole on his first record date, Chicago in 1936. Early on and sometimes later, he could catch Hines' blend of antic action and pinpoint timing. To be sure, he was a formidable pianist who come up in Earl Hines' Chicago. See, for example, a short biopic where he plays himself, "The Nat King Cole Musical Story," which you can find online.

Each patient they work with has a unique illness affecting their heartbeats based on complex music theory, which often affects the doctor's rhythm and pushes them to master their timing.
