The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated, "The performances dispense quickly with the opening themes except as abstract reminders of the original moods and emphasize both solo and group improvisations. Adams has his ferocious moments and Ulmer makes the ensembles quite crowded and intense (he also plays some flute during a couple of the melody statements) while bassist Sirone and drummer Ali keep the group interactions quite stimulating. After a slow start, the fiery sounds result in some memorable music".[4]

gollark: Cool codes there.
gollark: The trading offer page is actually very helpful for that, since it shows the codes even of named stuff.

gollark: I just noticed that I have both `is` and `if` codes right now.
gollark: Making up ridiculous justifications for random junk: Fun!
