Description
The one and only Cabell "Cab" Calloway (1907-1994) is featured in the most comprehensive 2CD album available, covering a great cross-section of his hits and band recordings during his vintage years. When Cab sang "Hi-de-ho" in his trademark Minnie The Moocher audiences always echoed it back, loving this manic, zany character in his extravagant 'zoot' suits, who was a barnstorming entertainer for some 60 years. Along with Duke Ellington, he was the star attraction of Harlem's Cotton Club, going on to become a famous 'Sportin' Life' in Porgy and Bess. "The Hi-De-Ho Man" is Retrospective's collection of 52 of his most successful recordings.
