This Jazz trio (Geof Bradfield-tenor & soprano saxophone, Noel Kupersmith-bass, Ted Sirota-drums) from Chicago is an outgrowth of Ted Sirota's Rebel Souls. On"The Rule of Three", the trio tackles some lesser-known material by underapprectiated artists like Randy Weston and Andrew Hill, as well as six superb originals by Geof Bradfield. Recorded direct to tape at Union Church in Hinsdale, IL, engineer Ken Christianson captures the natural & organic quality of this music with great success. Check it out!

Bradfield is not only confident, but in full possession of his gifts... Highly recommended. ****-Thom Jurek/All Music GuideA quietly exhilarating album, and one of the more significant debut recordings of 2003.-Nate Dorward/Cadence Magazine"Rule of Three" has a placid, grooving feeling within fairly disciplined mainstream parameters. It's a nice sound, and one I don't hear often on records by young jazz groups: it's as if this threesome doesn't care about competing.- Ben Ratliff/ New York TimesPerhaps the best record from 2003 that you never heard. -Mark Corroto/allaboutjazz.com Named one of the best albums of 2003 by Peter Margasak in the Chicago Reader and one of the top 10 albums of 2003 by Nate Dorward in Coda Magazine
