  • "1990, Mission Apollo: the French TV show" I'm attempting to find that footage, but can't find ANY at all. The only thing that I can find is The Apollo Mission (as in the space ship thing, not the theater tv show) Can someone point me in the correct direction?

"Folks, here's the story about..."

Cab Calloway, his music and his musicians.

Since 2006, The Hi De Ho Blog has been dedicated to the King of Hi De Ho who entertained a whole era, between the roaring Twenties until his death in 1994.

Jean-François PITET, creator of this website, is also the coauthor of TV documentary "Cab Calloway: Sketches" and has written the script for the comic book "Cab Calloway" by Cabu.
