Reception
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4 stars and stated "On this continually interesting program, Sun Ra and his Arkestra perform typically odd versions of a couple of standards, a swinging original, and two outside pieces. Almost up to the level of Reflections In Blue (recorded during the same two-day period), this date features one of the stronger versions of Ra's band... Recommended.".[2]

gollark: Sorry, I mean mods.
gollark: Oh, and the many closed-source plugin edits are also anticompetitive.
gollark: People use those?
gollark: Yes, so you have a monopoly, and as we can see now are abusing your market power.
gollark: Oh, and that the "no advertising" thing kind of makes it hard to actually suggest alternatives to SC as yemmel suggested.
