Reception
In his review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow says "This CD is full of surprises and unpredictable music. Altoist Ernest Dawkins and his versatile sidemen perform a wide variety of originals."
The Penguin Guide to Jazz says that this second Silkheart album by the New Horizons "is also patchy, but the addition of Nicholson adds some fire and focus to the overall mix and Dawkins himself seems more contained."
