Reception
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "This blues-oriented set is more accessible than many of Air's previous recordings without watering down the explorative nature of this always-interesting group".Yanow, S. [{{AllMusic|class=album|id=r134338|pure_url=yes}} AllMusic Review] accessed February 11, 2010. The Rolling Stone Jazz Record Guide said it "captures the telepathic agreement of Air's members in full glory".
