More Cole Español is a 1962 studio album by Nat King Cole, arranged by Ralph Carmichael and recorded in Mexico City.^[1]

This was Cole's third and last album of Spanish themed music, following Cole Español (1958) and A Mis Amigos (1959).

Reception

The AllMusic review by William Ruhlmann awarded the album three and a half stars, and said that compared to his two other Spanish albums Cole "still didn't sound like he always knew what he was singing, and he still seemed to be working on his pronunciation, but on More Cole Español he was clearly having a lot more fun."^[1]
