AllMusic | [3] |
The New York Times called the album "raw and tumultuous, hardly the work of someone settling into an easy middle age of refinement." [4] The Boston Globe and The San Diego Union-Tribune considered it one of the best jazz albums of 1988. [5] [6]
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow states: "This single-CD (formerly a double-LP) from Jack DeJohnette's Special Edition contains music that mixes together advanced hard bop, fusion, M-Base funk and avant-garde jazz... The results are sometimes unsettling but rarely dull, well worth several listens." [3]
