Allmusic reviewer Alex Henderson stated "On Buddy Bolden's Rag, Thompson and his band Africa Brass salute Bolden in an unconventional way; instead of playing traditional New Orleans jazz, they provide inside/outside post-bop that acknowledges Crescent City brass bands as well as avant-garde and AACM jazz. Thompson looks back on jazz's early history but does so without being the least bit dogmatic about it, and the result is a very enriching and unpredictable CD".[4]

gollark: Anyway, can I *fix* this issue somehow or must I just refactor the program to apiovoid this?
gollark: No.
gollark: A web application which will applicate some webs.
gollark: An apioform is an apioform.
gollark: Well, I wanted to write a thing, and my choices are/were essentially:- Rust - kind of annoying (yes, yes, I know) since I don't care that much about performance and don't mind just waiting for the garbage collector to garbage collect- JavaScript - fast/easy for me to write, but horribly resource-inefficient and it'll probably break in a few months from dependencies- Python - I don't really like it for larger-scale things, and dependency management is still fairly bees- something else, and I'd heard OCaml was neat
