Reception

Scott Yanow reviewed the album for Allmusic and wrote that "Woods' longtime bebop fans may not be that excited by these pretty free improvisations (although the musicians were clearly listening closely to each other), but the altoist's tone remained quite recognizable. Challenging and stimulating music".
