The Allmusic site awarded the album 3 stars.[2] As no descriptive text accompanies this star rating it is likely to be the default score, awaiting actual evaluation. Duck Baker in the May 2000 Jazz Times referred to it as a great album revealing the arranging skills of the leader to a new extent, and that the two bass mix was effective.

gollark: IIRC there's an offhand mention to flying carpets, *being banned* due to apioformic tradition by the ministry.
gollark: WHO thought "hmm, I can make arbitrary objects fly. Why don't I put said flight thing on a really thin object which is not merely irritating to sit on but also hard to control?"‽
gollark: No, it just lets them know where you are.
gollark: Because OBVIOUSLY a broom is the natural thing to put flight enchantments on?
gollark: And games get shorter as broom technology improves.
