Reception

The Allmusic review by Ken Dryden awarded the album 4 stars, stating: "Like many pianists, Steve Kuhn seems to put out one quality disc after another but doesn't ever seem to get the attention he deserves. This beautifully recorded studio date from 1968, with bassist Palle Danielsson and drummer Jon Christensen, is a good example".[4]
