Ken Dryden of AllMusic stated "This 1995 session for Steeplechase is one of the rare times where he had a chance to record as a solo pianist".[3] The Penguin Guide to Jazz described the album as "an immaculate solo performance that has melody at a premium and never for a moment drifts off into chordal side-roads."[4]

Personnel

gollark: I could do space-separated codes, probably.
gollark: Now to wait for about a year while I wait for an API key.
gollark: I guess I'll keep both.
gollark: Anyway, is it not often more convenient to add by code? You can just get an egg, then put in its code, versus putting in your scrollname, checking the box, and all that.
gollark: I have already put in a request for an API key.
