AllMusic[3]
The Penguin Guide to Jazz[4]

AllMusic stated: "The players constantly take chances with time but there are few slipups or hesitant moments. A fascinating and long-lost session".[3] The Penguin Guide to Jazz wrote that "Ellis plays lines and melodic inversions of considerable inventiveness, always striking out for the microtonal terrain he was to colonise later in the '60s".[4]
