Album by Cab Calloway and His Orchestra

The Chronological Classics: Cab Calloway and His Orchestra: 1939–1940 is a compilation album by Cab Calloway and His Orchestra collecting recordings from 1939 and 1940. Documenting Calloway's big-band swing era, the collection features energetic brass-driven arrangements, call-and-response vocals and rhythmic blues-inflected numbers, and it situates these sessions within his prominence in the swing and popular entertainment scenes of the late 1930s and early 1940s.
