Reception

The Allmusic review by Michael G. Nastos awarded the album 3 stars stating "Listeners with attention spans that allow them to focus on this heady brand of creative modern jazz will easily hear this as one of many triumphs concocted by Douglas in the 1990s. This collaboration is among his better team efforts. Highly recommended".[1]
