He was an American icon, a true innovator, and a cultural catalyst.
"No living pathfinder in American popular music or its jazz and rock-n-roll capillaries is so frequently emulated yet so seldom acknowledged as Cabell "Cab" Calloway. He arguably did more things first and better than any other band leader of his generation." -Timothy White / Billboard Editor-in-chief
