Well, folks . . . the trumpeter hiting that High-C at the end is the under-rated Charlie Shavers, isn't it??? Check-out his great ensemble work with the John Kirby Sextet . . .
@lady12480 Can you blame him for smiling though? This music is all about good times and smiling, all depression and war time era music was composed this way..
So I know that Cab was an avid advocate of marijuana and I've heard that he used opium for a time but sometimes I just think he had to be taking a little yayo.
lol cab is just chezzing and dancein he must have been in a good mood then againg when wasnt he when he is around music man he must have really loved music i mean just look at him 2:00-2:11
that scary black man ! he is drunk because he looks up like a frog !

I don't think this was a Cab Calloway song, I think he just wandered onto the stage and wanted to annoy the band playing there.

Watching this made me think of Little Richard and Prince. Oh, and Bill Cosby when the singer rolled his eyes. Dig it.

Cab Calloway always makes me happy! He's gotta be the coolest man that's ever lived.
And Joan Jones is an amazing trumpeter! :D
