Reception

The Allmusic reviewer Brian Olewnick awarded the album 4 stars, writing, "Brown receives excellent support by a strong ensemble including trumpeter Leo Smith and the great drummer Steve McCall. Brown, with his marvelously limpid tone on alto, is a joy to hear and seems more at home and relaxed here than on some of his more strident early records. Recommended".[3] The New York Times described his trio of Georgia-related albums as "his most notable recordings".[4]

Personnel

gollark: It's something something spatial frequency, I'm trying to figure it out somewhat.
gollark: Observe, filtering.
gollark: I'm messing with image processing. By multiplying that mask with the (shifted) FFT of an image, I can effectively make a"low pass filter" thingy. I should probably find some actual educational material on this instead of just tweaking a badly written python program.
