Reception
The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4 stars and states "Lloyd was going for more of a jazz sound, something more basic and lyrical as opposed to exotic and unusual". The All About Jazz review by Larry Koenigsberg stated "the most notable feature of his new CD is his return to form, as opposed to merely a return to format. He sounds the best he has since he left his Big Sur retreat to perform and record for ECM".
In another review for the same website Douglas Payne stated "Lloyd seems to sound warmer, somewhat romantic - and a touch more inspired than usual... This is a quartet that offers much to explore".
