Reception
The Penguin Guide to Jazz notes that "Moons of Jupiter gets a tumultuous start with the overwhelmingly powerful 'For Henry Darger'. The rest of the record turns out as a free-bop date with flashes of brilliance."
The JazzTimes review by John Murph says that "Swell boasts an intriguing set that keenly balances the hemispheres of the free and structured."
