Cab Calloway was way ahead of his time. It's no wonder he fit into the 80's and 90's so well.

I just saw this version for the first time. Cab filmed at least two others - all of them are unique/bizarre/compelling - one in a Betty Boop cartoon, the other with Cozy Cole's quartet with Jonah Jones. The trumpet soloist in this version is Paul Webster who was a high-note specialist with some of the best bands from the 20s to the 60s.

I love Cab Calloway. Yrs ago in the Bijou theater in Manhattan, they showed stuff like Flash Gordon &cartoons like Betty Boop singing Hells Bells b4 the movie. Wn I was young it cost 25 cents to see a cartoon & a double feature & 10 cents 4 candy & it wasn't near our house. We had 2 b driven there & call to get a ride back so 1 of us had an xtra dime 4 the call.

This is from a movie that contains all of the black nightclub performers as they traveled what was called the "Circuit". The performers were black and they played high class nightclubs across the country. CAB CALLOWAY was a genius! CAB CALLOWAYS' music is behind almost every BETTY BOOP cartoon and the movements of the cartoon characters are taken from CAB CALLOWAYS' own dance moves. Believe it or not, MAE WEST was a part of the black scene. She only hired the black musicians of her day for the music in her movies. The movie producers wanted MAE WEST to change her music to white musicians and she refused. Her movies made so much money for the studio that they backed down. MAE WEST had total control over all her material - she wrote the scripts, actors, music, musicians, total control of her productions. MAE WEST performed in Las Vegas until her death. All her background dancers were black men. MAE WESTS' Las Vegas show WAS an upload on this media. MAE WESTS' own digs, her own apartment, was used in her movies, also. It was all white with mirrors on the ceiling and she never changed a thing up until the day she passed away. They say, JEAN HARLOW and MARILYN MONROE were the two blonde bombshells and there was never a third. How wrong they are as MAE WEST WAS the blonde bombshell. It was only her considered extravagance, her personal associations with and her using black performers, that they did not reveal to the public, that kept her from being known publically, as the blonde bombshell of her day. C'mon! Anybody that looked at MAE WEST knows she was THE blonde bombshell.

PBS had a program on Mae West life. Well worth the watch. I think it was "American Experience." She was WAY before her time. Fortunately I taped all of her stuff on VCR tape before they put it in mothballs. Quick with the wit! Original blonde but not dumb blonde by any means.
