Reception
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "This is one of vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson's most unusual and interesting releases... The quartet set is excellent but it is Bobby Hutcherson's solo performances that are most memorable and unique". | rev1 = AllMusic | rev1Score = |rev3 = The Rolling Stone Jazz Record Guide | rev3Score = {{Cite book |editor-last=Swenson |editor-first=J. | author-link = | year = 1985 | title = The Rolling Stone Jazz Record Guide | publisher = Random House/Rolling Stone | location = USA | isbn = 0-394-72643-X | pages = 107 |rev2 = The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings |rev2score =
