The AllMusic review by Jonathan Widran states "If your ears are starved for innovative jazz that blends punchy sax lines and dense, wild, worldbeat-flavored bass and drum rhythms, let this newly formed trio with an amazing pedigree fill the bill ... Fly is definitely a cooperative by three major jazz talents".[5]

In JazzTimes, Aaron Steinberg observed that "The spare, layered and frequently funky postbop debut finds the band constantly shifting support and frontline roles as well as melodic and harmonic duties between each member".[6]
