Reception
Los Angeles Times jazz critic Leonard Feather awarded the album 3 and a half stars, citing the blend of "light rock, Brazilian and miscellaneous Latin," and further noting that:
The leader's organ and other keyboard work and Rick Zunigar's guitar have some striking moments, and a team of percussionists stir up a storm, though the rhythmic excesses become tiresome on the title number. "Novios" is charming, with a suave beat and Gary Foster on flute. "African Flutes" makes intriguing use of two bass recorders, played by Fischer and Foster.
