The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated "Eubanks and Turre had worked together on and off for nearly four years at this point and their familiarity with each other's playing shows. Add to the two trombones a strong and flexible rhythm section and the result is a stimluating and varied set of modern jazz". [3] The Chicago Tribune's Jack Fuller wrote "Robin Eubanks and Steve Turre are two of the best younger trombonists, but on this album their approach is surprisingly conservative". [5]
