The AllMusic review by Thom Jurek gave the album 3 stars, stating, "It's a solid session from beginning to end, but one still wishes Eicher would take his hands off the sound controls a bit, allowing some of the rawness that each of these players shows in live settings to enter the studio."[2]
The Penguin Guide to Jazz gave the album 4 stars, stating, "Reconvening the trio with Johnson and Erskine was a masterstroke. Teaming them with stablemate Surman was little short of genius... Superb, evocative modern jazz."[3]
