Edmond Hall was born into a musical family in Reserve, Louisiana in
1901, his father played the clarinet and all his brothers were fine
musicians. Hall paid his dues during the 1920's and '30's playing with
among others Billie Holiday, Joe Sullivan, Red Allen, Teddy Wilson,
Eddie Condon and finally the great Louis Armstrong from 1950 1955. With a
few short spells running his own band along the way, the late 1950's
finally saw Hall go freelance and form his own band. He was considered
one of the great clarinettist in the New Orleans tradition.
