## Reception

Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating AllMusic [3]

Richard S. Ginell of [AllMusic](/source/AllMusic) said "Starting with this LP, Eddie Harris ended his flirtations with the mass market, choosing to record mostly in a straight-ahead, bop-rooted manner for a variety of small American and European labels for the rest of his life. His electronic experimentations did not end, though, and he puts them to marvelously musical use here ... Worth seeking out".[3]
