Adelaide Hall (20 October 1901 7 November 1993) was an American born British based jazz singer and entertainer. Hall was born in Brooklyn, New York and taught to sing by her father. She began her career on Broadway in 1921 in the chorus line of the Broadway musical Shuffle Along, and went on to appear in a number of similar black musical shows, until in 1928 she starred (with Bill "Bojangles" Robinson and Nina Mae McKinney) in Blackbirds of 1928. It was this revue that made her name, both in the U.S. and in Europe when the show was taken to Paris. Her performances in it included the songs "I Can't Give You Anything But Love, Baby", "Diga Diga Doo", and "I Must Have That Man", which continued to be audience favourites throughout her career.
