Jitterbugs with Cab CALLOWAY in "Sensations of 1945"

[lcf02]

According to Dad there was no music written after 1945. Maybe he was right.

@lcf02 The same might be said for fashion and cars too.

You can hear Cab call out something like, "Go, Dorothy, go!"

I wish someone would post the number from this movie which features Mel Hall's upside down giraffe unicycle riding. In the meantime, keep on dancing!

You cant resist those legs on Jewel - what amazes me is the aerials in that loooong dress. Dear god, I would kill myself dancing in that thing!!

Who was the woman playing piano?

[Arthwyr]

It might have been Hazel Scott. this might have been one of the last appearances of the big band before Calloway formed the Cab Jivers- an eight piece outfit. Did you recognise Jonah Jones, Milt Hinton and Danny Barker. Was the drummer "Panama" Francis?

[jsjunot]

That was Dorothy Donegan

[swangonce]

Hey Pete!

John here!

Like we said once - "If you don't 'get' SENSATIONS OF 1945, you just don't 'get' it."
