Reception The Allmusic review by Ron Wynn awarded the album 3 stars stating "Pianist Steve Kuhn's greatest attributes are his steady, sometimes impressive phrasing and interpretative ability; his weak links are a less than intense rhythmic capability and a derivative style. That's overcome on this session mainly because he's playing with a sympathetic rhythm section".Wynn, R., Allmusic Review accessed April 17, 2014
