The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek states "This is a group who insists on being individuals in a collective setting and, therefore, the listening level is so high — so as not to miss any gauntlet laid down — the attention to execution and imagination can't help but be top-notch. So, in essence, this is a super-session, but not one in the usual sense. It is among the finest of all the recordings released under Taylor's name from either of his Berlin periods, and, for the others, it charts with their best playing anywhere. This is group improvisation at its angriest, freest, and truest".[2]
