Reception

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 2½ stars, stating, "Ornette Coleman shows throughout that he had not mellowed with age, and his concise yet adventurous improvisations (which are full of pure melody) are quite intriguing".[2] Steve Futterman of Entertainment Weekly commented "Both Sound Museum: Three Women and Sound Museum: Hidden Man mainly use the same compositions yet fairly burst with diversity. Whether his peers choose to follow him or not, Coleman still leads the jazz pack."[3]
