#LetsDoIt25
Day 23: Cab Calloway / Nat King Cole

A couple that are here for more modern reasons…

Day 23 / Song #1
Cab Calloway - Minnie The Moocher (1931)

Here because of The Blues Brothers, where I first heard it, and because of Betty Boop

Day 23 / Song #2
The Nat King Cole Trio (Get Your Kicks on) Route 66 (1946)

Here because of The Rolling Stones and Dr. Feelgood - and also as a nod to my mum who loved Nat King Cole. I remember sitting down with an atlas in the library trying to figure out the names of the towns mentioned… I should have just listened to Nat’s version, he enunciated them so much more clearly than Mick or Lee!
