Reception

The AllMusic review by Richard S. Ginell stated, "Dave Liebman plunges headlong into funk in the wake of Herbie Hancock's Head Hunters, but his heart doesn't seem to be in it. At times, he sounds bored playing R&B riffs that he seemed to have outgrown at the time, lapsing into free jazz flurries in an effort to stay interested, and the rhythm section is leaden."
