    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.

    CHRIS BARBER - 17.4.1930 – 2.3.2021 A very sad message has reached us! On March 2nd, 2021 Chris Barber died at the age of 90years. Thus, one of the best known, most interesting and versatile jazz musicians in Europe, has left the world’s musical stage. Having been born into a middle-class family in Welwyn Garden City on 17th April 1930, Chris showed a special aptitude for numbers and calculation and began studies in mathematics and statistics, however, as jazz records began to filter into post-war Britain, he changed direction and entered the Guildhall School Of Music in London to study trombone and double bass. He formed his first band in 1949 and the following year changed to a 2-cornet frontline based on the classic King Oliver Creole Jazz Band of 1923. It was on 31st May 1954 when Chris Barber took over leadership of the Ken Colyer Jazz Band due to Ken being dismissed because of “artistic differences” , that the CB success story really began. Ken was replaced by Pat Halcox from the Albemarle Jazz Band and he stayed with Chris Barber for over 54 years, making it the longest partnership in jazz history!! Chris was not only a pioneer of European traditional jazz from 1950 till 2019 but also a significant promoter and developer of the European jazz, blues and R&B scene. Although his music was based on traditional jazz, he experimented with new styles and different musicians from all over the world and incorporated them into his repertoire at an early stage.
