The album was reviewed by Richard S. Ginell at Allmusic who wrote that it was Previn's "best album since his return to jazz at the close of the 1980s, and also the most surprising and unpredictable one of his entire jazz life". Ginell highlighted the title track, which he wrote was "almost avant-garde in its erudite looniness". Ginell praised Previn's playing as possessing "greater streaks of wit and a cannier use of space than ever before".[2]

gollark: Its battery seems to have degraded almost to the point of uselessness by now, and it's nonreplaceable, so I've been vaguely looking into replacements, but it turns out that there are no good phone snow.
gollark: I think mine would explode if I tried that.
gollark: Hmm, it seems to be cut off in the picture, but there's a "107" in the corner.
gollark: Apparently I have 107 tabs open now. I should really do something about this.
gollark: I mean, IIRC they've also at times somehow dumped people into "transporter buffer" storage.
