After working as an engineer for 34 years, Spike Robinson finally became a full-time musician late in 1985. This outing with fellow tenor Al Cohn and a rhythm section comprised of pianist Richard Wyands, bassist Steve La Spina and drummer Akira Tana finds Robinson holding his own with his better-known sidemen. The two tenors had similar but complementary styles (Cohn's tone at this point in time was deeper and darker than Spike's), and their interplay and occasional tradeoffs are delightful. In addition to some standards, they perform Miles Davis' "Sippin' at Bells," Bob Brookmeyer's "Rustic Hop" and Johnny Mandel's "Low Life" on this easily recommended LP.
---Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
"The teaming of Robinson and Cohn is a happy and productive one in the Cohn-Sims tradition. As with his previous partner, Al manages (with Spike's sensitive collaboration) to show how much a pair of tenors can bring to their teamwork. Let's not think of this as a confrontation or competition, but rather as a happy and justified juxtaposition, one that will be repeated in the years to come, now that Spike is out there where he always belonged."
- Leonard Feather (Author of "The Jazz Years Farwitness to an Era," Da Capo Press) |
