The Penguin Guide to Jazz[2]

The JazzTimes review by Aaron Steinberg says "The saxophonist tempers a Coleman-like astringency with an earthiness and a touch of sweetness. The latter quality comes out when Moondoc allows himself to improvise melodically."[3]

The Penguin Guide to Jazz notes that "Much of the emphasis falls on the leader, but Massey's rugged tenor and Campbell's yelping trumpet makes their presence felt as well."[2]

Personnel
gollark: It's 541 lines of poorly thingied JS and SQL.
gollark: Hmm, my code is actually rather bad.
gollark: I see. Interesting.
gollark: If I fix the buggy crawl logic, swap out the FTS backend for postgres' one, and change the domain manager UI, it could actually be good.
