The album was recorded just weeks after Jan Akkerman had left the band, and a new guitarist, Philip Catherine had been brought in. According to the Allmusic review, "although the sound quality is very good, the music doesn’t only suffer from Akkerman's absence; it’s also about half-{{sic|comprised |hide=y|of}} boring, laid-back, instrumental jazz-funk fusion."{{cite web
