Reception

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 3 stars stating "This CD is actually most interesting for the playing of Taylor who contributes three of the originals and plays in a style not that far from Keith Jarrett. In general the music starts out pretty quiet but builds its intensity and holds one's interest". [2]
