Reception
The Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine awarded the album 4½ stars and stated "If Love Bug skirted the edges of free jazz and black power, Blue Mode embraces soul-jazz and Memphis funk in no uncertain terms... they know how to work a groove, and that's what makes Blue Mode a winner".[4]

gollark: Clock speeds are constrained mostly by CMOS processes as far as I know, lightspeed issues are secondary.
gollark: What? Superconducting logic circuits can easily hit tens of GHz.
