Reception
The World Music Report review by Paul J. Youngman awarded the album 4 stars and simply states: "Most striking on this album is Roberto Magris’ fluency in combining technique with melody in an unencumbered manner. Sounding effortless, an ease of semplicity, yet runs and mighty chords are struck with spot on precision." The All About Jazz review by C. Michael Bailey simply states: "This disc is not a rote homage to hard bop so much as it is an attentive appreciation rendered by three like-minded musicians recalling a heyday long gone."
