Both saxophonist Fred Haas and bassist Michael Moore have recorded excellent duo CDs with guitarist Gene Bertoncini. On Telling Stories, the twos become a three, with Haas doubling on sax and piano and supplying all the material. It’s obvious from the first track, the affable “Cayman Blues,” that Haas is a talented composer who writes from the heart; he’s ... thoroughly accomplished on both instruments, playing with subtlety and taste. With Bertoncini and Moore in top form, it’s an elegant, expressive threesome, and together they provide a relaxed and welcoming set.

The Haas family moved to the log house sometime shortly after 1901, the year Fred Haas was born. His recollections are woven into the account of archeological findings. Although he was nearly 90 when he was interviewed for this project, his memory was sharp and his storytelling abilities unfettered by age. Although ill health prevented him from being at the house during the investigations, he returned for a celebration with his family and the current owners following its restoration. On viewing the painstakingly rebuilt log house, he exclaimed in typically forthright fashion, "The house never looked this good!"
