100 years ago, on June 23., 1910, Milt “The Judge” Hinton was born. And 20 years ago, “a choir of first-call bassists canceled whatever to come together“ – and celebrate Milt’s  80. birthday at Town Hall, New York: Lynn Seaton, Lonnie Plaxico, Charnett Moffett, Jack Lesberg, Bob Haggart, Milt Hinton, John Clayton, Eddie Gomez, Richard Davis, Bill Crow, Major Holley, Ron Carter and Rufus Reid.
