Reception

Jazz critic Scott Yanow noted, "Powell is heard playing solo piano quite loosely at Francis Paudras's home, the recording quality is erratic and (despite some creative outburtsts) some of the selections are throwaways."[2]

The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded the album three of four stars and noted, "Paudras scuffs out a brush rhythm over Powell's unselfconscious improvisations."[3]
