Reception

The Allmusic review by Eugene Chadbourne awarded the album 2½ stars stating "For Paul Bley to comment that this 1983 recording is the best collection of his music to emerge since 1961 is a provocative statement unless, knowing Bley, he's just kidding around. Since this is even more spaced-out than some of his famous "slow" recordings such as Ballads, does that mean he really wanted those recordings to be even more minimal than they were?... The demanding listener may not forgive Bley for having tapped a vein of boredom, but perhaps this enigmatic jazz figure was trying to prove that there is no such thing".[2]

Personnel
gollark: Use of `lea` or something.
gollark: Apparently Zig can get some optimizations out of making all integer overflow UB.
gollark: (mod 2^128 or so)
gollark: Fibonaccae WILL be computed.
gollark: ```ruststruct Fib1 { cache: Vec<u128>}impl Iterator for Fib1 { type Item = u128; fn next(&mut self) -> Option<Self::Item> { let n = self.cache.len(); let next = self.cache[n - 1].wrapping_add(self.cache[n - 2]); self.cache.push(next); Some(next) }}fn fib1() -> Fib1 { Fib1 { cache: vec![0, 1] } }fn main() { for n in fib1() { print!("{} ", n); }}```
