In his review for AllMusic, Alex Henderson states "This CD underscores the fact that not all avant-garde jazz is atonal free jazz; on the whole, this is quite musical and melodic."[1]
The Down Beat review by Larry Birnbaum says "Renaissance of the Resistance redefines the mainstream with wry turns, sly nods, and subtle winks, and its nostalgia extends from Africa to the avant garde."[2]

gollark: Basically just "Jesus is great and all, fill out this worksheet on all the great things he did".
gollark: Religion lessons at school last year were on Chrisitanity, and taught by someone who... is Christian, so that wasn't very good.
gollark: PDF is really just not a good format for anything but scanned documents or stuff you only expect to be printed.
gollark: <@!249056455552925697> Why would you try and convert everyone to PDF? That's sick!
