Reception

Allmusic's Steve Leggett stated, "When compared to her more mature mid-'90s Blue Note releases, After the Beginning Again sounds much busier, but a listener is left with the nagging feeling that this busyness is covering for the fact that nothing is really going anywhere in particular. Wilson in time would correct all this and grow wonderfully into her material, but on this outing her focus is not quite there yet."[1]
