The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings wrote: "Aficionados of the Scandinavian scene will cherish a track featuring the great tenorist Bernt Rosengren on tarogato... 'Love Train' is perhaps the most jazz-based piece on the session. The remaining tracks are squarely in the world music idiom that Cherry was to make his own in years to come." [5]
