    Expecting the band to be ready 15 min before showtime is far from "demanding", just professional.

      It's an interesting comment, I wonder if back in the 30s that was seen as demanding because I dont understand it otherwise. I'd want performer's around 30 minutes before show start minimum haha

      i can remember watching the blues bros for many years before he died and i for years thought to myself it's amazing he's still around until he wasn't. i've since heard his 30's music and it is incredible there are like some songs i don't care but others i love much like any artist. and he did look good in feb. of 93 it's hard to believe that was 30 years ago!

    When Cab went to work at the Cotton Club they had their famous 'Tall, Tan and Terrific' light skinned black girls who had to be lighter skinned than a paper bag. He said he would quit unless he could bring his own 'Brown Bunnies' chorus girls and he won the fight. They were the only dark chorus girls earning big money in NY at that time.

    I was working a delivery job in '94. The day after Cab died I delivered a package to a woman named Heidi Hough. When I was a kid the only Cab Calloway I knew about was the cartoons of him from the '30s. I LOVE to watch that man dance! I saw one of his last performances at the Hollywood Bowl. I believe he was about 84 at the time.

He would have so many of his friends performing with him: Bill "Bojangles" Robinson, Lena Horne, The Nicholas Brothers, Dizzy Gillespie, Duke Ellington... You can best believe they're all up there singing, dancing, playing, and swingin' right now!!

    Yes he was a trooper allright. He continued to work for well over another year until he had his stroke in the summer of 1994. One of the last surviving bandleaders of the '30s at the time to still be working.
    I especially like his earliest recordings (1931 to 1935) and continue to find more 78s of those every year.

      As far as I have read in a book, his last preformances were in september and october of 1993. After that his health was declining too fast for it to be safe for him to be on stage.
      He broke his hip in june of 93 and theres only one video of that from what i can tell.

    As a cuphead player living in China, I grew up watching rubber hose cartoons and fell in love instantly with cuphead featuring the same 1930s cartoon style, that's where I came upon Cab Calloway by confronting with King Dice, a character whose prototype is Calloway, which a fact that I learnt afterwards. I love these inspiring performance and the 1930s image really match my perception of the classic United States.

Look up "Cab Calloway 1993" and youll find his last recording I know of. He's sitting in a chair and his voice is just a gruff monster. But you can go back to 1990, where I think he had his voice still left. There's two recordings from 1992 as well.
      Many from 1987 and 1988 though.

    As a white man, growing up in the eighties, I never knew some of this history. It's good to learn about the black roots of some of these classics. I'm learning and it started for me from learning that koko the clown signing Saint James infirmary blues was this guy Cab Callaway. Led me to other amazing performances and influences he made on music.
    Funk will always be my favorite genre, but the blues are a close second.

    Cab Calloway continues to inspire young musicians to this day. I invite you to look up the band Brothers Moving and enjoy the many videos of these young men performing Cab Calloway's Minnie the Moocher. Their interpretation pays great homage to Mr. Calloway.

    This interview is a treasure of one of the greats from the Olimpic Heights of Jazz. But, putting the water mark in the middle of the screen of large size really distracts from the appreciation of the content.

    White Plains NY? Sorry I never knew growing up in Ossining or I would have visited. I feel connected to Cab ...enjoy the Era music. Maybe my mother loved him too. Cool dictionary. Great for Black males he and dizzy overcame and became lifetime friends. Feeling where he is...nice He acknowledges his whole band in Heaven. Good interview. Thanks Cab

    R.I.P. Cab
    Died the year I was born, a good time to come in or check out (if I do say so myself).
    Discovered him through The Blues Brothers. Was always my favorite of that bunch, he just oozed perfect showman and confidence.
    The more I learn, the more I watch about the man…the more impressed and appreciative I am to be able enjoy his art/work. He was a TRUE triple threat, back when they REALLY made em (et. Sammy Davis Jr.). He was a gem.
