Allmusic's Brian Olewnick called it "Either/Orchestra's finest, most accomplished release" and said: "Beautifully recorded by legendary engineer Rudy van Gelder, the band is extraordinarily tight and vibrant, showing none of the muddy quality that would sully some of their later work ... Quite a journey, resulting in arguably the best of this unusual band's release. Very highly recommended".[2]
