All About Jazz |
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states "This is one of Rova's more accessible projects, although the music certainly has its adventurous and passionate moments. Recommended".[3] On All About Jazz Jeff Stockton said it was "as approachable as Rova gets, an enjoyably listenable point of entry into the work of this groundbreaking veteran group".[4]

gollark: Expanding on what I previously said, you can already pay for a commercial suborbital flight these days, and space travel is cheapening, so maybe by 2030 you'll be able to travel between continents by rocket in an hour or so by commercial suborbital rocket for... a million dollars or so.People will inevitably complain about this, too.
gollark: The nuclear fuel heats the propellant which gives it exhaust velocity.
gollark: Yes they do. Not that they're actually used because nuclear.
gollark: Nuclear rockets are.
