In his review on Allmusic, Stewart Mason states " It's impossible to fault any of Houston Person's albums from this period, as the tenor saxophonist remains a sublimely gifted soloist with a gorgeous, well-rounded tone and a smartly melodic soloing sense ... This is undeniably fine music, but there's so little to differentiate this album from so many others that Houston Person has done that finally, it's primarily of interest either to die-hard fans or those who have near heard any albums from this period in Person's career. Honestly, if you've heard one, you've heard them all".[4]

gollark: Windows ALSO has proprietary drivers?
gollark: Nvidia uses their drivers for market segmentation i.e. the simultaneous transcodes limit.
gollark: > whats wrong with proprietary drivers... well, they can break randomly and you can't do much about it, they might be unsupported, they have limited options.
gollark: Yes, which is a problem.
gollark: No wayland compatibility and such.
