Tone Tantrum

The AllMusic review by Jason Ankeny stated, "Gene Harris never veered closer to mainstream jazz-funk than Tone Tantrum – a slick, propulsive record... Still, while the sound is radio-friendly, the quality and complexity of the performances serve as a potent reminder that Tone Tantrum is first and foremost a jazz record, and a solid (if unconventional) one at that, purists be damned.^[3]
