Reception

AllMusic awarded the album 4½ stars with its review stating "At the Village Gate is the album that first brought Herbie Mann to widespread popular attention, thanks to the inclusion of "Comin' Home Baby," which soon became one of the flautist's signature songs. By the time of the record's release in 1962, however, Mann had already been a bandleader for years, honing his pioneering blend of Afro-Cuban and Brazilian music with hard bop's funky structures just under the public radar. As a result, At the Village Gate sounds more like a summation than a beginning".[4]

gollark: <@231520866016428032> Either use `iter_content` as it says or remove `stream=True` and use `.content`.
gollark: I'm 70% sure that the issue is that you're using `stream=True` but then trying to access the entire response in a buffer via `.content`.
gollark: Probably, yes.
gollark: I assume it has an on-chip iGPU of some sort.
gollark: Maybe the GPU drivers are wrong somehow?
