Allmusic[3]

The Allmusic review by Steve Huey awarded the album 3 stars and stated "While it won't win over fans of Green's older work, Carryin' On is a solid addition to any acid-jazz/funk/rare-groove library, as are most of Green's albums from this period".[3]

Personnel

gollark: (Pagination + quick rule summary + indicator if person you're trading with is egglocked + few other small things probably)
gollark: God-Emperor TJ09 could fix the whole thing in a few hours, but nooo...
gollark: Which is worse?!
gollark: Either it's deliberate stupidity (drama maximization experiment) or the site is just *that badly run*.
gollark: Seriously. It's not hard. Does TJ09 really not have 5 minutes to add pagination and write up a small paragraph on the rules?!
