Summary: The greatest by the greatest!
Comment: Milt was just about the best bass player there ever was -- and his playing was only matched by his wonderful personality. And the collection and stories reflect him, without any bull -- the way it really was!

Rating: 5
Summary: Photographic & narrative reminisences of road & studio life
Comment: This is an incredible book! Milt Hinton was born in Mississippi, raised in depression-era Chicago, and embarked on a career as bassist with Cab Calloway, Louis Armstrong, and then as one of the first black musicians to cross the color line in the New York recording studios. The whole time, Mr. Hinton was documenting his travels in exquisite black and white photographs, which appear throughout the book. Hinton's memory is as sharp as his photographic skills, and the story telling is just marvelous. You won't be disappointed if you buy this one!
