In his AllMusic review, Scott Yanow calls the album "very long-winded and rather dull" and says of Marsalis that he "seems content to play the part of a chameleon, doing his impressions of late-period Coltrane, Sonny Rollins and (when he switches to soprano) Ornette Coleman."[1] The LA Times praised the recording, saying "the telling of what he finds is revealing and beautiful in ways only the best improvisational music can be."[2] Jazz historian David Hajdu called the recording "a career-positioning statement in matter-of-fact musical terms" and "insular music for the hard-bop elite" in a review for Entertainment Weekly[3]
