Bill Evans

Tony Balluff

Mike Polad

The Hall Brothers Band ... "is best described

as traditional or New Orleans style jazz rather than Dixieland.

And they sang my favorite!!!

"Oh Mr. Johnson turn me loose...

Don't put me in the calaboose...

Oh Mr. Johnson...

I'll be good!"

and on and on and on...

what fun!
