Reception
[edit]The Allmusic review by Satcia Proefrock awarded the album 4 stars stating "Redbird captures that sense in music and, in its continuity, becomes one of Zorn's most effective tributes. As always, Zorn has managed to collect a group of extremely talented musicians, and their execution of this album makes it even more perfect".[2]
