The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated "Veteran tenor saxophonist Billy Mitchell could not ask for a better rhythm section than he has here ... The results are quite boppish and one of Mitchell's better recordings of the past 20 years".[3]

gollark: Oh, wait, it actually declares a `sorted`, bee.
gollark: #1 is kind of weird because it does some complex stuff then just ignores it and does `sorted`.

gollark: The decorators are oddly placed.
gollark: Is #15 *deliberately* written to be weirdly formatted?
