AllMusic[3]

The AllMusic review by Michael G. Nastos stated "Spaulding's tart-sweet alto sax has never sounded better, while his pristine flute playing is easily in the top ten of late-'90s jazz performers. ... Spaulding shows a consistency within mainstream parameters, a real sense of teamwork with these worthy session mates, and a willingness to take chances".[3]

Personnel

gollark: I mean, phone links run at horribly low bitrates with awful codecs usually.
gollark: I bet you might get *kilobytes* a second through that!
gollark: Or you could use, as I said, one of the overlay networks like cjdns or yggdrasil, or a private one like tinc or zerotier.
gollark: Well, you can encrypt the packets before posting.
gollark: Basically, you post your network packets as comments on osmarks.tk, and the other person reads them.
