Allmusic awarded the album 3 stars stating "This early quartet date from pianist Paul Bley is somewhat historic because it was the recording debut of both bassist Charlie Haden and vibraphonist Dave Pike... Bley explores a lot of unlikely material in an early postbop manner".[2]

gollark: The security guarantees entirely come from it being a piece of hardware which the user isn't meant to be able to do much to.
gollark: Personally, I dislike the entire idea of "trusted" computing, so in my IMO it is.
gollark: You could use one of those "smart plug" things or possibly a relay somehow.

gollark: I don't know about the serial thing, but what you *can* do is use a Raspberry Pi with a video capture thing (there are these dirt-cheap Chinese HDMI input sticks, or a HDMI to CSI thing which exists for some reason) and also make it emulate a USB keyboard/mouse.
