Reception The AllMusic review by Ron Wynn stated, "Sun Ra provided some stunning moments on the Rocksichord, while leading The Arkestra through stomping full-band cuts of atmospheric or alternately hard bop compositions, peeling off various saxophonists for skittering, screaming, at times spacey dialogues".Wynn, R., AllMusic Review accessed July 4, 2014
