Tenderly Cole Nat King 1957
In this clip we see the last tune of Nat King Cole's 1957 TV show featuring Oscar Peterson and Jazz at the Philharmonic.
Nat introduces the tune about like this:
It's not only a privilage to sing with the Oscar Peterson Trio, this is also the finest piano treatment of Tenderly.
Not bad, when an announcemt like that comes from Net King Cole.
The Orchestra of Nelson Riddle is the studio band, a wonderful Cole vocal and then Oscar swings a chorus.

Sweet: yes,
commercial: very much,
jazz: absolutely
