The Penguin Guide to Jazz[3]

Allmusic awarded the album 4 stars calling it "A surprising album from Bley, long considered an outside player with little, if any, affinity for straight bop. He shatters that myth on this set".[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz said "Bebop is a taxingly inventive and constantly surprising run through a dozen kenspeckle bop tunes".[3]

Personnel
gollark: I would be surprised if tmpfs did. I know you can use zram/zswap and such.
gollark: Just make an ext4 filesystem in `/tmp` and put a swapfile on there.
gollark: That's easy to work around.
gollark: Induction is good.
gollark: You should prove it inductively.
