Reception

edit

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow states that Henderson "has always had the ability to make a routine bop piece sound complex and the most complicated free improvisation seem logical... the music still seems fresh after three decades."[6] The Penguin Guide to Jazz states that "while in general the temperature seems rather lower than on Henderson's other Blue Notes, it's fascinating, profound music."[5]
