Reception


The Allmusic review by Ron Wynn awarded the album four stars out of five, stating, "The three take chances, converge, collide, alternate time in the spotlight, and make emphatic, unpredictable music while never staying locked into one groove or style".[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded the album 312 stars stating, "Current Events, which introduces two of the guitarist's most sympathetic and responsive partners, is still a very strong statement".[3]
