Ninety pounds of boyish energy, red hair and freckles, Hundley is the most sophisticated new jazz artist now playing on the West Coast. Since forming his own trio last May, he has made one swinging LP, Arrival of a Young Giant (World Pacific), and on a single day last July he appeared on three major network programs: Showcase '68, the Today show and Johnny Carson.
