The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow calls the album "Fascinating music, it is recommended strictly for the open-eared listener who does not demand that all jazz swing conventionally".[5] The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded the album 3½ stars stating "Young/Wise combines the definitive Abrams solo performance of the period with a group of tracks of burning intensity".[3] The Rolling Stone Jazz Record Guide said it has "a long example of Abram's reflective piano and a tighter group performance by an excellent AACM quintet".[4]

Personnel
gollark: You could maybe do a dyson *swarm*, but honestly they're less cool.
gollark: Dyson spheres are impractical. You would need unreasonably large amounts of stuff to make them.
gollark: Without having actually watched this, since it's still quite slow at 1.5x speed, is the issue just that they would need to be impractically large?
gollark: F octothorpe is a cool programming language.
gollark: Well, Unicode, not UTF-8.
