Allmusic awarded the album 4 stars noting "Byers wrote most of the music for the date and the solos remain very fresh. The performances are comparable to other musicians' better-known dates that have had the benefit of better promotion by their record labels and wider exposure through reissues".[3]

gollark: I don't do stuff which requires more performance than "common stuff completes in under a few tens of milliseconds", so honestly I'd prefer a GCed language like OCaml over Rust, except Rust actually has good libraries and tooling.
gollark: Macron doesn't seem very good.
gollark: There are some languages I would be happy to use if they had more of an ecosystem. Like OCaml.
gollark: This is what I do, despite no language being truly satisfying.
gollark: You are such a subresource integrity, gnobody.
