2/4. Clarke Peters pays tribute to showman, band leader, singer and stage star Cab Calloway (1907-94), whose hi-de-ho scat singing has influenced jazz artists like Fats Waller as well as today's rap acts. His many hits included Minnie the Moocher and Kickin' the Gong Around, and in the 50s and 60s he drew rave reviews for his stage turns in Porgy and Bess and Hello, Dolly! This edition recalls Calloway's legendary residence at New York City's Cotton Club in the 1930s and features new interviews and archive material.
