This musician found work with Cab Calloway's band, but Calloway didn't take kindly to this musician's adventurous solos, which he branded "Chinese music."

There, he began to use an instrument with its bell pointed at a 45-degree angle, and also began to play original compositions like Woody n' You, Groovin' High, and Con Alma. FTP,
