Reception
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states: "Tenor saxophonist Archie Shepp was at a turning point of sorts in 1975. He was near the end of his free jazz phase and would soon be exploring melodies from both the jazz tradition and the early 20th century; in addition, his tone would begin to decline within a decade. However, that is not in evidence during this fairly rousing live appearance at the Montreux Jazz Festival with his quintet.... This second of two CDs is the better of the pair and a good outing for Archie Shepp."[3]
