Henry "Red" Allen (January 7, 1906 or 1908 (see talk) – April 17, 1967) was a jazz trumpeter. Henry James Allen was born in the Algiers neigborhood of New Orleans, Louisiana, the son of the noted bandleader Henry Allen. He took early trumpet lessons from Peter Bocage and Manuel Manetta; some of his lessons from Manetta were taken together with another promising young trumpeter, Emmett Hardy. Allen was playing professionally by 1924, playing with the Excelsior Brass Band and the jazz dance bands of Sam Morgan, George Lewis and John Casimir.
