Avsnitt 76

A look at the life of distinguished diva, Natalie Cole, daughter of Nat King Cole. Deciding to follow in her fatherÍs footsteps, Natalie began her singing career with a small band in her college town of Amherst, Massachusetts. Her big break came in 1975 when her first solo album, "Inseparable", went gold . But Natalie's heavy drug use and heroin addiction started to take their toll on her career and personal life-- Natalie's marriage to her songwriting partner, Marvin Yancy Jr., ended in divorce in 1980. Finally, after intense rehabilitation and support from her son, Robbie, Natalie re-emerged in 1987 with "Everlasting", a tribute to her father . The album was a commercial success; however, Natalie was dealt a hard blow in 1995, when she faced a lawsuit from her mother concerning legal rights to Nat King ColeÍs estate. The case was resolved in an out-of-court settlement. Includes interviews with: Natalie, Carole Cole (sister), Maria Cole (mother), Marvin Yancy Jr. (ex-husband), Kevin Hunter (former manager), and Ralph Goldman (business manager).
