Reception

Scott Yanow for AllMusic states, "For the first time Ellis opened his band to the influence of rock (making liberal use of electronics) and the results lend themselves to some hilarity".[4] The Penguin Guide to Jazz said "No one sounded like this. Tough as it sometimes is, Ellis' music is never less than exhilarating".[5]
