The NY music blog Daily Swarm has picked up my Cab Calloway interview from last night, so if you want to hear it, then you can click on the link here. It was a pleasure to chat to John Schaefer, and also if you listen to it and you’re puzzled by the opening, I was suffering from walking briskly to the BBC a mile and a half through the autumnal murk, hence my wheezing and coughing, and this was because of the Tube strike. The previous item on WNYC had been about the musicians of the Detroit Symphony being on strike and picketing in full evening dress.
