==Reception== {{Music ratings | rev1 = AllMusic | rev1Score = {{rating|3|5}}<ref name="Allmusic" /> }} The AllMusic review by Ron Wynn stated "Exactly the kind of impressive, high level playing and interaction you'd expect from this trio. ... While it's Carter's session, there's really no leader or followers, just three wonderful musicians fully attuned to each other".<ref name="Allmusic">{{AllMusic|first=Ron |last=Wynn |class=album |id=mw0000898055 |title= Ron Carter: ''1 + 3'' – Review |accessdate=November 13, 2017}}</ref>
