Lots of passion, art, exuberance, humor, irony and authenticity in Calloway's music.

What's really sad, though, is that even though there was still legal discrimination and de facto segregation even in New York City, black folk, at least in Harlem and most of the North, were better off in most ways than they are now, in terms of education, family solidarity, and crime/crime violence.

My grandfather was in a big band in the 40's. When then would play and tour in the north, they had a black female singer. When they went down south to play and tour, they had to replace their singer with a white woman.
