Reception

The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4 stars stating "Once more, Rava dazzles with his grasp of the languages of jazz: its textures, its rhythms, its dynamics and above all, of course, its secretive and inventive melodic improvisation. There is no let down here from Easy Living; The Words and the Days is a worthy companion that confidently stands not in the previous recording's shadow, but on a ledge of its own".[2]

Personnel

gollark: Main cores and RAM on, low-power core on and RAM slower, RAM on low-power and cores off.
gollark: Can't you just have more low-power modes?
gollark: It seems kind of horrifying that SIM cards do so much. This sort of thing is bound to have vulnerabilities.
gollark: I currently use caddy with php-fpm (connected over FastCGI) for that one stupid PHP application I have to run.
gollark: People *use* that?
