AllMusic	[3]

Richard S. Ginell of AllMusic said "On his second and last RCA LP, Harris strips everything down to just tenor sax and acoustic grand piano -- with himself overdubbing on both -- in an austere, uncompromising series of sessions in several studios. A bold move, particularly for RCA (which probably didn't give a damn anymore), one that few players would dare attempt and fewer could pull off. For Harris, this is only a partial success; some tracks are wandering and anarchic, others are quite musical and one in particular, the title track, actually swings quite well without a rhythm section".[3]
