Part 2 of Selected Discography
Part 2 of Selected Discography Milt Hinton Solos Compiled by Ed Berger (1949-2017) - Librarian, journalist, music producer, photographer, historian, and former Associate Director, Institute of Jazz Studies, Rutgers University. This is a chronological list of representative solos by Hinton as a sideman in a variety of settings throughout his career. Although not definitive, Milt was such a consistent soloist that one could cite many other equally accomplished performances. In some cases, particularly from the 1930s when bass solos were relatively rare, the recordings listed contain prominent bass accompaniment.

JAZZ WORTH READING: “THE BOSTON JAZZ CHRONICLES: FACES, PLACES and NIGHTLIFE 1937-1962″ Posted on February 20, 2014
From Michael Steinman’s blog JAZZ LIVES MAY YOUR HAPPINESS INCREASE. Jazz: where "lives" is both noun and verb JAZZ WORTH READING: “THE BOSTON JAZZ CHRONICLES: FACES, PLACES AND NIGHTLIFE 1937-1962″ Posted on February 20, 2014 Some of my readers will already know about Richard Vacca’s superb book, published in 2012 by Troy Street Publishing. I first encountered his work in Tom Hustad’s splendid book on Ruby Braff, BORN TO PLAY. Vacca’s book is even better than I could have expected. Much of the literature about jazz, although not all, retells known stories, often with an ideological slant or a “new” interpretation. Thus it’s often difficult to find a book that presents new information in a balanced way. BOSTON JAZZ CHRONICLES is a model of what can be done. And you don’t have to be particularly interested in Boston, or, for that matter, jazz, to admire its many virtues. Vacca writes that the book grew out of his early idea of a walking tour of Boston jazz spots, but as he found out that this landscape had been obliterated (as has happened in New York City), he decided to write a history of the scene, choosing starting and ending points that made the book manageable. The book has much to offer several different audiences: a jazz- lover who wants to know the Boston history / anecdotal biography / reportage / topography of those years; someone with local pride in the recent past of his home city; someone who wishes to trace the paths of his favorite — and some obscure — jazz heroes and heroines. -

Acoustic Jazz Guitar Great Marty Grosz Marks 90Th Birthday with His New Memoir
Contact: Joe Plowman, publicist Email:[email protected] Phone: 610-417-7534 Acoustic Jazz Guitar Great Marty Grosz Marks 90th Birthday with His New Memoir “…entertaining, readable, funny, and revealing…a real and sometimes startlingly candid pleasure” – Michael Steinman, Jazz Lives PHILADELPHIA, PA March 4, 2020 – A giant of jazz rhythm guitar, Marty Grosz has performed with jazz greats such as Herb Ellis, Charlie Byrd, Ruby Braff, Dick Hyman, Bob Haggart, Bob Wilber, and Kenny Davern. And after performing for 70 years, he has stories to tell. Part memoir, part transcribed oral history, It’s a Sin to Tell a Lie serves up Marty’s story raconteur style—full of sardonic wit with a touch of vaudeville. Part 1: My Story: Candid stories of life with his famous father, German Expressionist George Grosz; sailing to the US; his Chicago jazz years; travels abroad; Soprano Summit; Classic Jazz Quartet; the Orphan Newsboys. Part 2: The Interviews: Transcriptions from 11 live interviews between 2015 and 2019. Marty opines on guitar tuning, Eddie Condon, drummers and bassists, Slam Stewart, Mingus, Chet Baker, Hoagy Carmichael, Herb Ellis, and more. “A giant of jazz rhythm guitar, Marty Grosz is equal parts showman, jazz scholar and raconteur. A virtuoso in a playing style that’s both timeless and so far off the radar it’s all but lost.” — Riverwalk Jazz Marty Grosz (b. 1930, Berlin) came to the United States at age three. He is considered among the best acoustic jazz guitarists of the twentieth century, as well as a vocalist, humorist, composer and arranger. Joe Plowman, Jazz Story Club Series editor, is a musician in Philadelphia. -
