Day at Night: Cab Calloway, singer and bandleader

CUNY TV is proud to re-broadcast newly digitized episodes of DAY AT NIGHT, the popular public television series hosted by the late James Day. Day was a true pioneer of public television: co-founder of KQED in San Francisco, president of WNET upon the merger of National Educational Television (NET) and television station WNDT/Channel 13, and most recently, Chairman of the CUNY TV Advisory Board. The series features fascinating interviews with notable cultural and political figures conducted in the mid 1970's.

too bad the interviewer knows no jazz history and he clearly knows nothing about his subject's music - he actually has to ask "how does "Ain't Misbehavin" go?" He makes the mistake many interviewers do of continuing to ask too many questions, often cutting off the speaker before he finishes his thoughts. The audience wants to hear the speaker talk and fully express his thoughts, not answer a series of random , jagged questions that keep interrupting the story being told.
