[edit] Reception
All Music Guide comments that the album is "a compelling and provocative one."[2] Reviewer Thom Jurek says that "what is immediately striking is the lack of the piano's sonic presence on the session" but that the Burrel is "everywhere ... going for something else ... [a] textural and harmonic interaction of the various stringed instruments as they encounter and dialogue with each other."[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz relates the album to Burrell's earlier work of Echo due to "the first piece is fierce and instense, while the second majors rather on atmospherics."[3] Still, they call the instrumentation fascinating and "this is a valuable reissue from an important period in the American improvisation diaspora."[3]
