Calloway Boogie - Cab Calloway

- The Snader telescription Calloway Boogie aka Cab's Club (1950) starts right off with Cab Calloway dancing up a storm. A scaled down version of his band is seated behind him: Panama Francis on drum kit, Milt Hinton on doublebase, Jonah Jones on trumpet, Dave Rivera on piano. For this number, Jonah on trumpet is mightily highlighted.
It's a one-take live performance & Cab's not perfectly miked, but it has that "no retakes" realism to it that is a pleasure.
The song however boils down to a fairly standard boogie woogie, with new words put to an old riff: "Here's a little song I'd like to do for you/ Ain't nothin' to it, it's easy to do/ Called the Calloway boogie. Calloway boogie/ Keeps you groovy twenty-four hours day."
It's really Jonah's trumpet that saves the song from being a cookie-cutter number to the standard boogie beat. This song's studio recording includes Cab's entire band, & this scaled down version is actually a very lovely alternate, thanks to Cab's major sideman Jonah Jones who just can't be praised enough.

nothing like watching Cab. He could raise the dead.
so glad we still have these videos
Not them all most where distoryed in the fire at universal most of his master's are gone
Amen to that !!
Me too. Although we have lost so much information to the deep depths of history, I think that just makes what we do have that much more valuable.
@Dwain Neighbors 🖕
Yes I so agree..
I love Cab Calloway!! One of the most popular mainstream acts in black music back in the days. He was one our pioneer music artist for Boogie Woogie.
And hip hop - check out a tune he did called Abe Gezunt. Its Hip Hop in 1933 style!
@@peterbrooks9432 ODB sampled minnie the moocher in Dirty the Moocher too; I also think hi-de-ho man was sampled somewhere too
"Back in the days"? Jeez how old are you
un artista que trasciende en el tiempo, por atreverse a demostrar su talento a pesar de las circunstancias.
I'm agree I love him I listen to him all the time
I love how his daughter was one of the first black woman to teach in a white-only school. She's also retired nowadays and still alive, it must be so good to see these footages of Cab for her, he seems like he was such a delightful energy guy.
Cab Calloway was a national treasure. Amazing talent.
When all of a sudden you realize your great grandparents were way more cool than you'll ever be.
😘😘😘😘🤣🤣🤣🤣
How you could not dance with that rhytm?, sick!
Talk about bust a move. The man is singing and grooving. Put on a show!!! Cab ain't no joke!!!!
The man meant business
My dad introduced me to Cab Callloway. He would have been 98 this year. Thanks, dad. Cool 😎
Father of Be- Bop, Hip-Hop & Rap!!!!
The original B boy
Props to those cats for putting on a hell of a performance back then. You can see them sweating in all those suits and still playing aces. Major props. Even Cab looks like he needs a sweat rag at the end
PS this stuff should totally be in a fallout game
Agreed
A fine woman dancing w/ The Cabster.
Good you didn't say lobster
Words cant describe the joy I get from this
Did you notice how he dances and sings without catching his breath?
He was truly a force of nature !!
Must’ve had an impressive set of lungs!!
Living cartoon.
Entertaining was his natural state ❤
He's just a groovy, boogie bird
This is FANTASTIC. Now THIS is some real swingin jazz
As always, Marie Bryant kills the dance routine!!!
I am SO glad I went to see him perform in 1978 in upstate New York. Man, he STILL had it going on then, and thrilled the crowd with his signature hair and head flap move. What an entertainer!!!
This is pure energy and happyness...
Man dat Cab gutz duh moves him dancing himself ❤ heart owt wut uh showmun!!!
I'm so glad we have video records of the 19th century. Despite its hardships, it must've been a hell of an era for creatives like musicians and artists.
So true !!
This movie was filmed in the 20th century, not the 19th.
...there it is again, @@davidhenschel1990. The deflection. Like there wasn't the same hardship in the 20th century.
@BabaStiletto I corrected the century. Reference to hardships was already correct.
It's the 20th century. We are now in the 21st century (2024).
The 19th century was the 1800s.
You simply cannot help loving Cab and his music!
This dear man was way ahead of his time, his music still rings true to the oppressed and blue. God bless you sir
Stuff from 80 years ago..just fantastic
We always had soul. Great talented man.
If there was a Hall of Fame for "cool," Cab would be the original inductee.
What a great entertainer. I love his music and his stage presence is beyond compare!
My parents loved him. Very hard to get his records in Britain in the 1950’s, but they had an American diplomat friend who used to bring new ones near Christmas time. I think he was the Michael Jackson of his era.
WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT.........
THATS HOW ROCKN ROLL STARTED
Fifty years ago this past July...Drill Sgt McKnight (E-6 type) would march us to "Hi de hi-dee ho...Ho-dee ho-dee ho...that's the Ft Dix Boogie...what a crazy sound...Dress it right...and cover down...forty inches all around..."at the time my 2q1 year old ignorant young ass had never heard of Cab Calloway...Thank you Drill Sgt McKnight...wherever you are...
The dancing was so awesome, better than what is going on today.
OUI !
More energy than nuclear fusion. ❤
SWING THAT!!!!!
Bad man right there, very unique and extremely talented.
Just had this on loop accidentally for like 5 times not even mad. Impossible not to smile and be in a good mood to
Pure spontaneity dancing 🤗❤️!
Unmatchable
Agile, handsome....very, very HOT as a young man. And he was no slouch as an old one, either.
He wasn't even that young here, in 1950. Check out footage of him in the 1930s, for example in a couple of Betty Boop cartoons.
I love when Jonas Jones nais the double G's.
these guys knew how to jam
Cab was raw soul ..... Love it !!!
Timeless…….bravo!😎
Cab was a great entertainer who was well ahead of his peer; peers of all races!!!
Dang Cab! he just threw her offstage tho...lol..
Keeps you Groovy 24 hours a day 👍🏿
It started his resurgence on the Dr. Memento show on KPPC fm. He brought a lot of lost songs back to life. Spike Jones and others. It was nice to see him inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2009.
Typo *Dr DEMENTO
The dancer is the ever so talented Marie Bryant.
Smmmmooooooooth!
Insane bop right here! Calloway boogieee Calloway boogieee 💃🏾🕺🏽
Freakin great band all around. Jonah Jones, man! He's a great player in his own right, and he threw that spitball at Cab, who blamed Dizzy.Gillespie took the blame, mostly coz Cab didn't care for Dizzy's chance taking solos ('Chinese Music', according to Calloway). The upshot was that Diz was fired, and since he'd already been jamming with Bird, the rest is (Bop) history.
don't forget Panama Francis on drums
Yeah I heard about that.
damn, that Trumpet player is really doing the boogie. LOL
Oh, now this is my song right here! Get it, Cab!!
The absolute best!
WOW...fantastic!!
That was excellent!
Legend! Pioneer! Pure Entertainer!!
I'm here watching in 2021 born in the 80's loving this
Same!
Born in the 50s here
Panama Francis sounds great!
Man had such an energy and disposition! Great we can still today remember this great talent!
(meanwhile I wonder if people will remember who is Justin Bieber in the next 5 years)
Legend!
Кэб Каллоуэй энергичный - а его партнёрша по выступлению это абсолютная реактивная девушка с огромной энергией .😂😂😂
Wow this was special.
I loved Cab's hair flopping from side to side
call brought the energy
Que hermoso sin duda alguna
The best
Cool Cat Cab, brilliant.

Why does Cab Calloway’s club intro have to have such ear pleasing jazz?
THE King, forever.
Cab dances like a god...X :-)
que artista maravilhoso
WOW!
Cab Calloway = the man song.
Lo mejor para ver si estas triste!
OG

these guys are part of the reason segregation was abolished... the hustle showed in pure art. and after they were immortalized in film, they will never die now.
His name really is CAB too :-)
I'm glad that was no Uber then !! The name "Uber Calloway" just doesn't swing !!
Jubal Calif lol that’s a good one! Also his name is Cabel calloway III
His full name is Cabell Calloway.
Are you sure it's not Lyft Calloway?
@@drewidrie2396 look him up. His first name.is Cabell.
Who's the woman dancing with him?
Marie Bryant -- she was a singer, dancer and choreographer. You can also see her dancing with Harold Nicholas in a short clip. She's the lady in black ua-cam.com/video/EFyDd8CFLVw/v-deo.html
Amazing that she kept up with Cab. Few could.

That was when they were entertaining, and not violent.
My baby-
Coolest cats
America was more happy that time.
and more racist.
Cab's singing and dancing here have rightly been praised but there is one thing I would add--throw away *any* list of jazz trrumpet greats that does not include Jonah Jones!
