Reception

edit

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 3 stars stating "The three Waldron and two Woode compositions generally have their own personalities (although none became standards) and serve as excellent showcases for Waldron's repetitive and percussive style. A fine effort".[2]
