Reception

The Allmusic review by David R. Adler awarded the album 3 stars stating "There's a curiously straight-ahead, tempo-driven feel to this short and sweet disc... The brittle, lo-fi sound doesn't detract from the album's historical value". The Penguin Guide to Jazz said "There are good things, too, from what was to be Bley's established trio> Up until that point most of the trio's best work seems to have gone unrecorded".
