Reception


The Allmusic review by Ken Dryden awarded the album 4 stars stating "Jaki Byard was captured alone in a Milan studio for this delightful session. As usual, he displays his formidable technique with an ever-present twinkle of humor. Everything from early jazz to classic renditions of Ellington masterpieces... Several strong Byard originals round out this highly recommended CD".[2]
