Minnie the Moocher has been covered and interpolated dozens of times since it was first recorded in March of 1931. We will be showcasing all type of versions this month starting with a cover by Russ Carlson and his orchestra from March of 1932. #hideho #minniethemoocher

Happy 92nd birthday to Minnie the Moocher!

First recorded on March 3, 1931, the song becomes Cab Calloway's theme song and the first record to sell one million copies of a single by a Black recording artist.

If you’ve never seen the snake hips, or at least never knew you were looking at the snake hips Cab does a great job showing it as the opening scene to Max Fleischer’s Minnie the Moocher cartoon in 1932. #CabCalloway #MinnietheMoocher #movie
