Reception
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 3 stars, stating, "This blues-oriented set is more accessible than many of Air's previous recordings without watering down the explorative nature of this always-interesting group".[2] The Rolling Stone Jazz Record Guide said it "captures the telepathic agreement of Air's members in full glory".[3]
