Martin Wind, (Challenge). The versatile bassist brings together multi-instrumentalist Scott Robinson, 
pianist Bill Cunliffe and drummer Greg Hutchinson to play compositions by Wind, Thelonious Monk and Duke Ellington. Wind’s complex “Mr. Friesen,” a tribute to cellist Eugene Friesen, could give this talented composer an entry in the jazz standards book. Of his arsenal of instruments, Robinson confines himself to tenor sax, bass clarinet and echo cornet. His tenor work suggests that he should be placing in poll categories other than those for unusual instruments. Cunliffe’s solos show why he is in demand on both coasts. Wind’s bass lines, as usual, are perfection.
