Reception

The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 3½ stars stating "Meaning and Mystery is yet another album in the Douglas catalog that showcases his fine compositional and arrangement abilities, but more than this, it's the sound of a group in the process of continued restless development long after the bandmembers have found their collective voice".[1]
