Reception

'' The Penguin Guide to Jazz'' states "The timbre of the group can seem a little monochrome at times, gives Morris's penchant for a neutral tone and Brown's even dynamics, but Dickey's own playing has rare clarity, which seems to bind the music together." In a multiple review for '' JazzTimes'' Aaron Steinberg says "Morris shows up here on his familiar ax, the undistorted electric guitar, which Dickey sets against the punchy cries of Rob Brown's alto sax to great effect."Steinberg, Aaron
