A writer for ''The Free Jazz Collective'' commented: "Drake and Parker play like they are one person with two bodies, and their rhythmic foundation supports the tonal soundscapes weaved by Campbell and Carter, who both have a huge background, but more importantly, they play with the rare combination of emotional and creative power... excellent free playing, moving naturally, rhythmically, full of intensity, full of spirituality and musical vision."
