AllMusic[1]

In his review for AllMusic, Glenn Astarita states "The band sustains a flexible disposition via fragmented rhythmic exercises and Brown's homogenous blend of soul-stirring choruses and verbose dialogues."[1] The All About Jazz review by John Kelman notes that "The interplay, especially between Parker and Brown, is strong; this is free playing with a purpose, a sense of direction, and a sense of construction."[2]
