Allmusic[2]

Allmusic awarded the album 4½ stars with its review by Scott Yanow stating "Criss, an underrated altoist who was instantly recognizable within three notes, was neglected during long portions of his career but he did leave behind several memorable recordings, such as this one. Recommended".[2]

Personnel

gollark: gnoβody
gollark: status.osmarks.net CNAMEs to status.gh0.pw, so I'm not* wrong**.
gollark: I wrote the software still running at https://status.osmarks.net/ during lunchtime and a somewhat boring virtual physics lesson (and then spent a while more time debugging a weird issue with file descriptor exhaustion, but something).
gollark: Seems reasonable, they aren't very interesting a lot.
gollark: You *might* end up in a scenario where you don't want to reinstall them because you'd feel "weak" or something, but still end up suffering somewhat and not being productive due to other things.
