Release and reception
Шаблон:Album ratings The album was released by Enja Records.[1] The AllMusic reviewer concluded that, "Some of the unpredictable music gets a bit intense (Ibrahim is in consistently adventurous form) but his flights always return to earth and have an air of optimism. An above average effort from a true individualist."[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz described it as "A set of strongly coloured African themes, containing the germ of Ibrahim's 1980s work with Carlos Ward and Ekaya."[1]
