The Globe and Mail determined that "the intermediate size of the band, neither small nor big, allows its character to come as much from the personalities of its members as the instruments they play." [6]
Scott Yanow on AllMusic noted: "It's an excellent outing from a somewhat neglected group". [3]
All compositions by Jimmy Knepper except where noted.
Ronald Edward Cuber was an American jazz saxophonist. He also played in Latin, pop, rock, and blues sessions. In addition to his primary instrument, baritone sax, he played tenor sax, soprano sax, clarinet, and flute, the latter on an album by Eddie Palmieri as well as on his own recordings. As a leader, Cuber was known for hard bop and Latin jazz. As a side man, he had played with B. B. King, Paul Simon, and Eric Clapton. Cuber can be heard on Freeze Frame by the J. Geils Band, and one of his most spirited performances is on Dr. Lonnie Smith's 1970 Blue Note album Drives. He was also a member of the Saturday Night Live Band.
