AllMusic     [4]

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated, "Trumpeter Wallace Roney, 32 at the time of this recording, has yet to escape from the shadow of Miles Davis. However he is one of the stronger brassmen in jazz of the 1990s and plays quite well on this set ... The music is straightahead but occasionally as unpredictable as the repertoire".[4]
