The Allmusic review by Ken Dryden stated "pianist Eric Watson is a more-than-capable foil for Lacy's adventurous excursions into the works of Charles Mingus ... fans of Steve Lacy are advised to pick up this outstanding release quickly".[3]

Personnel

gollark: Gibson is trying to make it look like it's *excessively obviously* Gibson to deflect suspicion from Gibson, also.
gollark: He hackerized the Discord mainframe.
gollark: Ææa?
gollark: But what if gibson was orchestrating the leaks to try and imply that it wasn't him by making the timing suspicious so that it looked like someone trying to show it was him?
