It's not the Cab Calloway version, at least not one I heard. It's similar to the Benny Goodman version, but I suspect it's a version made by a more modern big band (1970's or later).

Yes you are both right its a modern version recorded at the time of the Blues Brothers movie came out (1980) . Cab Calloway's music became very popular at that time. He came to London in 1989 where I saw him live at the Barbican . I was sitting with other hepcats in the first row and it was AWESOME !

Thanks, I didn't realize he made a new version in 1980.
