Allmusic[6]

In his review on Allmusic, Scott Yanow notes "Kenny Barron could easily go unidentified if some of the selections on this LP were played for a listener during a "blindfold test" – he sounds quite unrecognizable on the three numbers on which he plays electric piano. Barron, who is joined by electric bassist Bob Cranshaw, drummer Freddie Waits, and the colorful percussion of both Richard Landrum and Warren Smith on his five originals and one by Waits, utilizes electricity with intelligence and creativity. His songs are moody and complex yet somewhat accessible and this underrated set would certainly surprise some of his current fans"[6] In JazzTimes David Zych wrote "The program has Barron offering a rich program of originals with a '70s tinge, but nevertheless rich, imaginative, and worth repeated listenings".[7]

Personnel
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.
gollark: I see.
gollark: That is... unusual logic?
gollark: However, it is possible that trying to make yourself be hyperproductive by removing fun things may actually *not* go well.
