In his review for AllMusic, Thom Jurek states: "It is a stunning work, really, that showcases Shipp at the height of his compositional and improvisational powers, and points the way to the flowering of his vast talent as an arranger as well." [2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz wrote that "Campbell is a diehard free jazz man and he puts some warmth into the surroundings." [3]
