The Penguin Guide to Jazz	[1]

The Penguin Guide to Jazz notes that "Swell's tone has a raucous, overheated timbre when he warms up, and set beside Rudd's more constricted delivery, the results are more reminiscent of a couple of old Dixieland tailgaters going at it than anything 'avant-garde'."[1]
