In his review for Allmusic, Scott Yanow stated "generally hard-swinging and well-played, but the strong influence of Charlie Parker makes all of the altoists sound alike".[2]

gollark: This is actually interesting. The music being played seems to be missing a chunk of the frequency spectrum for some reason.
gollark: It would need good amplifiers, I suppose, but it's possible. I'll have to survey all our listeners to determine how many actual listening people each thing corresponds to (factoring in time spent with it running but away from the computer, and such).
gollark: JS doesn't support **C** properly, so no.
gollark: It's not an arbitrary number, the backend *actually does* fetch this from the server doing all the streams.
gollark: No, icecast would record this.
