Bluerein Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Hello all, just wondering which Milt Hinton photo book I should have. I've found 3 on various sites (none cheap by the way). Over Time, Bass Line adn new one Playing the Changes. Any help would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazztrain Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Reiner: I'd recommend that you start with "Bass Line." In addition to some choice photos, it also contains Hinton's recollections of his life and career. "Over Time" is mostly a book of photos.

medjuck Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Not home so can't check but my memory is that Bass Line is an autobiography as well as a great photo book. Over Time is mainly photos. Don't know the third book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elissa Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Third vote for Bass Line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluerein Posted January 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Thanks for the input. But if I want only a photo book is the Over Time the better choice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakeostrin Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 One more vote to start with "Bass Line"; I think "Overtime" is scarcer in hardcover. But, both were printed in softcover. If you are not looking for hardcover first editions, you can probably find softcovers for under $20 each--they will pop on e-bay from time to time (if you you shop there). $50 for "Bass Line" $75 for "Over Time" in hardcover first is reasonable when buying from an antiquarian dealer, you get the book quickly and conveniently. But you'll get copies much cheaper looking on e-bay and waiting (and going for the softcover). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
