Scott Yanow, in his review for AllMusic, says because of the length of some of the pieces, "there are some meandering moments but in general the interplay between the three musicians holds one's interest."[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz states "Campbell remains a gratifying and lyrical performer, even at his furthest out." [3]

Personnel

gollark: Yours prints `[number] [maybe fizz and/or buzz]`, the python version does *not* and it's shorter if it is allowed to
gollark: Also, it does not seem to be doing the same thing as the python version.
gollark: And yours seems to be doing some bizarre thing where it's hardcoding a table of the different things it should print for each modulus.
gollark: You can include "fizzbuzz" and stuff inline in the python version, but not in the assembly version.
gollark: No, I mean your code also relies on the data bits.
