Reception

The Allmusic review by Michael G. Nastos awarded the album 3½ stars stating "Everything with this band clicks from the word go, as Pullen weaves his way through a panoramic world view that, in this limited CD format, seems like he's merely scratching the surface of what this ensemble is capable of".^[2]
