Allmusic's Scott Yanow noted "Even at that late stage of his career, Hines constantly took chances and came up with surprising and consistently fresh ideas. This set is easily recommended, as are virtually all of his the pianist's unaccompanied solo albums".[2]

Personnel
gollark: I don't know how many are in my data dump in total, but I was training it jankily on Colab so it only ran for a few tens of thousands of steps.
gollark: Anyway, I did train a GPT-2 model on my messages ages ago. It wasn't very good, but I think this is just because I did not know much ML stuff at the time, so it was a small model and very undertrained.
