AllMusic[2]

The AllMusic review by Michael G. Nastos states "there is an overall good end result on this ambitious first outing of what could eventually wind up being his signature large composition".[2]

The JazzTimes review by Forrest Dylan Bryant says "Delivered in sour tones and rumbling polyrhythms, the suite juxtaposes creakily exotic ensemble passages with fiery solo flights. Campbell, leading his quintet through strange and bold soundscapes, balances a contemplative lyricism with concentrated bursts of blazing energy on trumpet and flugelhorn."[3]

In his All About Jazz review, Mark Corroto says that "the music was written in the fashion of a Duke Ellington or Gil Evans suite" and claims "Roy Campbell has composed a fully formed suite, one which is worth repeated listening sessions."[4]
