AllMusic	[3]

The AllMusic review by Dave Nathan said "With live sessions there's a special vitality and excitement that's missing from a studio recording as the players feed off each other and the audience. Not constrained by time limitations or technical barriers, the quartet lets its collective hair down for 67 minutes of intelligent, but somewhat subdued, improvisation ... This is a good, solid quartet recording".[3]
