AllMusic[1]

In his review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow states "This adventurous and well-constructed live set holds one's interest throughout and is well worth several listens."[1]

The JazzTimes review by Chris Kelsey notes "Murray's been hotter, but it's great to hear him again in a stripped-down context. And it's great to hear El'Zabar, period."[2]

Personnel

gollark: HTML nodes are *basically* just a```ruststruct Html { name: String, attributes: Map<String, String>, children: Vec<Html>}```so I think that could be pretty compact.
gollark: I don't think so, fair point. It could be done in a VFS, but æ.
gollark: I would not really be against a binary HTML encoding since it could be useful in other places, *especially* since it could be parsed way faster if you impose constraints browsers can't because backward compat.
gollark: Presumably.
gollark: Although perhaps less if you compress it, hmmmm.
