Reception

The Allmusic review by Ken Dryden awarded the album 3 stars, stating: "Waldron makes the best of the situation and provides superb accompaniment for Lacy's adventurous flights as well as offering his trademarked dark but fascinating solos... This is a fascinating if not quite essential CD by Steve Lacy and Mal Waldron." [3]
