AllMusic critic Richie Unterberger gave a rave review to the album, stating: "The taksim (improvisations) and gazels (vocal improvisations) are extremely emotional and moving, and there is a good deal of variety in the 75-minute program, in both content and instrumentation." Unterberger also praised the sound and audio restoration on the record, writing that "even on the performances dating back to the early 20th century, the transfers seem to be clear as technology will allow."

Recorded and released on the Atlantic Records subsidiary Vortex in 1968, the album remains unique in Jarrett's catalogue, displaying a sound largely influenced by folk and progressive rock.

Here Jarrett overdubs himself on various instruments, similar to the tribal Spirits (1985) or especially the free funk No End. "Sioux City Sue New" was released as a 45 rpm single, backed with "You're Fortunate." In 1999, Collectables Records reissued the album paired with the Art Ensemble of Chicago's Bap-Tizum.
