The Allmusic review recommended the album awarding it 4 stars and stating "Xanadu was a perfect label for altoist Charles McPherson since he was always a bop-based improviser who was perfectly at home jamming straightahead standards".[3]

Personnel

gollark: You know the Y distance (EDIT: from gun to can) is 0 because it says on the same level.
gollark: If you look at, say, HTTP internet radio stations which use ogg streams, then they appear to browsers and such as audio files which keep getting longer. I assume the format just allows you to stick ogg packets on the end and don't care much about declared length.
gollark: Are you implying a Discord server is more private than your actual computer or something?
gollark: I am DELIBERATELY reposting, "PyroBot".
gollark: It rickrolled me on the web version (Firefox). Differences in ogg parsing maybe.
