An impeccable rhythm section... - Jazz Times. The Grammy nominated, veteran Seattle trio hits again, this time with Ernie Watts on saxophone, who fits in beautifully on the trio's third CD as co-leaders, sharing their wit, their Bluesy sensibility, their love of nuanced interaction, their wide-ranging expressivity, and their ability to build the excitement in a long-unfurling musical line. On a recording dominated by original tunes by New Stories, Watts joins the trio in making the new songs sound like the standards they might well yet become. Originally released in 1999.
