Reception

The Toronto Star wrote that "the fluid emotional work of altoist Coleman headlines an octet gathering of post-bop conservatism, spacey odysseys and booting contributions from veterans Von Freeman on tenor and Tommy Flanagan on piano."{{cite news |last1=Chapman |first1=Geoff |title=Modern spin on swing combines best of both worlds |work=Toronto Star |date=23 May 1992 |page=H12}}

Scott Yanow of AllMusic stated: "The music is essentially a quirky version of straight-ahead jazz with generally strong solos from the diverse players, hints of Coleman's M-Base music, and some blues. Intriguing but not essential."{{cite web|last1=Yanow|first1=Scott|title=Rhythm in Mind (The Carnegie Project) |url=http://www.allmusic.com/album/rhythm-in-mind-the-carnegie-project-mw0000276785|website=AllMusic|access-date=22 July 2014}}
