Reception
The Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine awarded the album 4 stars stating, "[Pearson's] originals are continually unpredictable and memorable, and his arrangements, especially of the standards, are provocative and intriguing. While it might not appeal to fans of Pearson's wonderful small-group hard bop sessions, it is unquestionably an experiment that works, and one that confirms his remarkable skills and talents."[2]
