yes, that's right! in fact there's a video of him in one of those on the internet. so cute!
my father thought he was terrific, he'd probably have been a zoot suiter altogether but they made him wear his Army Air Force uniform! my Dad was cool, really!
loved bluesy jazz and stuff like that.
I do have Minnie the Moocher, it's at the bottom.
I had the pleasure of seeing Cab C. in the Broadway version of Hello Dolly with Pearl Bailey.
also saw it with Channing but Cab and Pearl were better!
nope, love Cab Calloway, Minnie the Moocher especially, don't think I put that up yet, but I will.
No it's old Artie. So moody and cool, don't you think?!
put more music up!
finally (after a year, figured out how to do it)!
the first song is my chosen soundtrack for the film adaptation of my novel! delusions of grandeur? oops, better watch it!
no, I never heard of it. God knows what I was busy with then--I wish I had seen it though.
I would have loved it you're right.
Thanks, Leigh. Maybe I'll be lucky and they'll show it sometime.
I just noticed you specified Old Hitchcock--I agree with you, it's earlier films were the best I think.
Oh Leigh! NEW BESTEST FRIEND, LEIGH! Thanks for that. It is busting to come out!. It's escapist really, before I start writing I go and soak up all of my time capsule stuff and I'm back in another time! I'm Veronica Lake flirting with Alan Ladd--or Stanwyck, planning on "making a killing" in the insurance biz!
I shut out giant tv screens and cell phones and all the noise of now--and dive into neon cities with big band music and jazzy cocktail lounges--I stroll arm in arm with my escort--wearing my ankle strap shoes and a gardenia in my hair, and it's not 2008! (My Mother always told me I was born much too late)!
