It’s Cab Calloway’s home!! Why isn’t it already a museum??
He’s one of the most influential musicians and bandleaders in the past century. He was a huge talent and an important historical and cultural figure. This page contains just a fraction of what he accomplished. biography.com/musician/cab-c…
I’ve felt for years that he’s been shortchanged. He played with Ellington and Vaughn and I think Blakey, most of the big names really, and was a true original who continues to influence music. I can’t believe his house might get demolished, what a loss news.allaboutjazz.com/cab-calloways-…
Without Cab Calloway there would be no Jacksons, no Prima, no Elvis — and Elvis‘s house is a museum. I’ve seen that tacky thing with my own eyes. Cab Calloway deserves to have his legacy honored whenever possible.
(I was a jazz deejay for five years and love music)
