Reception
In his review Scott Yanow of Allmusic stated "Having established her credentials as a fine acoustic pianist, she switched back to her less personal synthesizer work and contributed some rather mundane wordless vocals. The music is not terrible, but it lacks a sense of adventure and sounds as if potential radio airplay was its main goal."Select personnel
