Allmusic reviewer Jim Todd called it a "superior hard bop date" stating "Green's sound is distinguished by a finely controlled, soft articulation. It's not the squealing, serpentine legato of Eric Dolphy, but there are similarities. Green's approach allows him to play continuous streams of ideas rippled with the modulations of his subtle tonguing".[4]

gollark: Probably won't help; nginx is likely to just handle it as bytes and the limit is still 8K.
gollark: I'm still looking into supporting base64orwhatever'd URLs to increase the maximum page by 6.4 or whatever.
gollark: I mean, it could be made shorter with base58 encoding or something, I'll look into it.
gollark: It claims that by default the max is 8KB.
gollark: Oh, does it? Let me just find the nginx docs...
