Reception

In a review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow wrote: "This LP is well worth acquiring, for it includes two fine numbers from 1963..., a selection from the Quartet's very successful appearance at the 1963 Newport Jazz Festival, and three originals... dating from 1965. It's an excellent release that is both fiery and spiritual."[2]
