Releases and reception
The album was originally released by Atlantic Records.[2] It was first released on CD in 1998, by 32 Records.[3] The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow states: "The performances are episodic and colorful with plenty of humor and adventurous moments, worthy of repeated listenings and amazement".[1] The JazzTimes wrote that Kirk "forces the listener to hear his multi-horn free associations and his serpentine asides not as charming, off-center diversions, but as pointedly structuralist works".[4]
