The PBS show Independant Lens is going to be showing "Keeping Time: The Life, Music, and Photographs of Milt Hinton". It airs tomorrow (Tues, Apr 12th) where I live, but you can get more info here http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/ And in 2 weeks it's the Ramones!!!!!
It's on Friday AND Sunday night here. At midnight and 1 AM, respectively. Sounds like a definite recording alert to me! :thumbup: Never even heard of this particular program. I need to flip channels more.
Great show! Milt Hinton started out with an Argus C3 ("the Brick"). Later images show him using a Nikon F (I think). He would do his own developing and printing in hotel rooms while travelling with his bands. He describes watching a BW image form in the developer tray as "the closest experience a man can come to like having a baby." I love this guy!
He should pass a kidney stone sometime; he will re-think that comment. :mrgreen: But I still appreciate the sentiment behind it. :thumbup:
