Reception
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 3 stars, stating, "one imagines that this approach works better in concert than on record. There are some strong moments on this hard-to-find LP (such as Bowie's trumpet-drums duet with Phillip Wilson on "Duke's Fantasy") but this is a hit-and-miss affair".[1]
