Reception

The Allmusic review by Don Snowden awarded the album 3 stars stating "Live at Montmarte isn't all it could have been, but sometimes things just don't happen. It sounds like Scofield and the group never found a truly comfortable common ground. They don't clash, but it never feels like they're totally in synch, either, at least not enough to reach the greater-than-the-sum-of-the-quartet-with-guest-soloist-parts level".[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded the album 3 stars stating "Scofield's unison statement with George on "Forever Lovers" is one of the highlights... As a live document, it's OK, but still not a proper monument to Adams's larger-than-life personality".[3]
