==Early career==
Bobbye Jean Hall was born in Detroit, Michigan, and began her career there playing percussion in nightclubs while still in her teens. Using bongos, congas and other percussion, she played uncredited on many Motown recordings.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.warr.org/sessrhythm.html )〕 She lived in Europe for a few years then moved to Los Angeles〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.instrumentalwomen.com/page22.html )〕 where she was one of the few female session musicians in a male-dominated profession, a sometime associate of The Funk Brothers. Already a veteran player by May 1971, she added her bongo skills to Marvin Gaye's "Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)".〔 "...such as Bobbye Hall whose insistent bongos can be heard..."〕 Her first studio gig behind a full rock drum kit was with Chris Ethridge on his album ''L.A. Getaway''—Ethridge said "she was great".
Hall recorded several albums with Bill Withers, including his No. 1 hit "Lean On Me", and an album recorded live at Carnegie Hall. She toured with Carole King in May–June 1973 after having participated on two of King's studio albums. In May 1974, she performed again at Carnegie Hall, this time backing James Taylor, a follow-up to appearing on two of his albums. Stevie Wonder used Hall's percussion skills for a few songs in 1974 and 1976, including "Bird of Beauty" where her artful quica work established a mood of Brazil at Carnival.
In 1973–1974, Hall began to be credited sometimes as Bobbye Hall Porter, also Bobbye Porter Hall, after her marriage to record producer Joe Porter. Hall released one album of her own in March 1977: ''Body Language For Lovers'', a soul-jazz instrumental work featuring tunes co-written by her and her husband. ''Billboard'' recommended the LP, but it did not chart.
