Scott Yanow of Allmusic says, "The colorful arrangements use the distinctive horns in inventive fashion and the music (which leaves room for many concise solos) holds one's interest throughout. One of Phil Woods' finest recordings, it's a true gem".[4]

Personnel

gollark: PotatOS uses that for disk signing.
gollark: There's ECC stuff available.
gollark: Previously you used to be able to identify the location of computers by ID if they were sending GPS pings, but that's anonymized now.
gollark: I also have a thing which integrates that with a reader thing for the Opus status broadcasts, so it can track a lot of information, and the location, of anyone using Opus on their neural interfaces.
gollark: You can use a bunch of modems in different positions and some code "borrowed" from GPS to trilaterate the sender of modem messages, which is neat. I have a thing for that.
