Reception

The Allmusic review by David R. Adler states "the Tiny Bell Trio produces a remarkably full sound despite its sparse instrumentation... Douglas's goal here is to absorb musical influences from the Balkans and Europe... As an early glimpse of Douglas's unconventional brilliance, this one is well worth checking out".[3] The album was identified by Chris Kelsey in his Allmusic essay "Free Jazz: A Subjective History" as one of the 20 Essential Free Jazz Albums.[4]

Personnel
gollark: It's quite hard to fit secured communications into the 4KB it gives you. Though my stuff always just pulled down extra code from the internet.
gollark: Oh, a fun thing you can do with killer drone swarms is hijack them to get your own killer drone swarm.
gollark: That exists? I would go for ArchLinuxARM personally, but eh.
gollark: Though they can hover out of reach or something.
gollark: Or scrench them. Just rightclick (shiftrightclick) with a scrench to remove them.
