Reception

On All About Jazz Marc Medwin said "Trio X continues its increasingly longstanding tradition of meditative fire music with this stridently contemplative March 2006 live date. Not so much a series of pieces as a collective meditation on Black music and its history, the album is a palimpsest, bringing together various eras and styles in front of an enthusiastic audience. ...the disc is another triumph for the group, maybe one of the most interesting and enjoyable statements in its growing catalogue".[2] in JazzTimes Scott Verrastro wrote "Roulette at Location One exhibits Trio X in peak form, opting for spatial exploration by utilizing remarkable restraint and extraordinary dynamics".[3]

Personnel
gollark: As I said, I can't.
gollark: I simulate my alts in GTech™ GVR™, but it is a bit weird sometimes.
gollark: To save you from problems they're withheld until I can recalculate safe ones.
gollark: My guesses accidentally contained a proof of the inconsistency of arithmetic.
gollark: No, it's because I'm everyone's alt and I have an IQ of 205 octillion.
