Did anyone watch the Natalie Cole biography movie on NBC Sunday night? I don't typically watch TV movies, in fact I've grown to hate network television, but the wife wanted to see it so I sat through part of it. There is a major scene set in the 1970s where Natalie and her band are in a rehearsal. Problem: The piano was a black polyester finish Boston. Poly finishes were not used in the 1970s and Boston pianos did not exist in the 1970s!!! What topped it off and got us laughing for five minutes was that in the very same scene half way through the piano suddenly changed into a light walnut!!! Is this some new trick finish that Steinway is using on their Bostons??? I'd sure like to see one! Rob Goodale, RPT Las Vegas, NV
