Reception
editAllmusic called the album "ahead of its time in terms of instrumentation, but (...) a product of its time in that established ways of doing things were being challenged", and noted that listeners whose prior experience of Schifrin's work was limited to the Mission Impossible theme would "be drawn in further by the eccentric genius displayed here".[4]
