Reception

|rev2 = The Rolling Stone Jazz Record Guide
| rev2Score = {{rating|4|5}}[4]}}

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated "Tenor saxophonist Ricky Ford's first record as a leader preceded the beginning of his highly rated string of Muse albums by a year. 23 at the time, Ford already had a recognizable sound that was influenced by Dexter Gordon. For this ambitious effort (which displayed the impact of his stint with Charles Mingus), Ford performs five of his original".[5] Reviewing the reissued album in JazzTimes Willard Jenkins wrote "While there is ample evidence that Ricky Ford’s palette has broadened, and his sound has ripened notably over these twenty years, he has yet to craft a recording that tops this one".[6]
