Writing for Allmusic, Scott Yanow praised the album, saying it was "arguably Sonny Rollins' best recording of the past decade, and is a highly recommended set", and that "[w]hile many of his detractors feel that his studio recordings since the 1970s have not had the excitement of his live concerts, they should find much to enjoy on this passionate if not flawless set". He concluded that "[h]is playing sounds a bit like a purging of bad memories, while at the same time seeming hopeful about the future."

Personnel

gollark: Things which extend into those instead of just having a constant fixed position in said new spatial dimension are also not going to somehow stop being subject to time, unless the laws of physics privilege it somehow, which would be really weird.
gollark: For one thing, if you add extra spatial dimensions to our universe on top of the existing 3, it isn't suddenly going to gain multiverses or something; ignoring all the complex physics things I'm not aware of which are probably sensitive to this, it will just be another direction in which you can move, perpendicular to the other 3.
gollark: I think your understanding of how spatial dimensions work is inaccurate.
gollark: ···
gollark: Depends what the simulator is doing.
