Reception
Шаблон:Album ratings The AllMusic review by Al Campbell said "All compositions are by Baron, and will definitely satisfy those with an open ear to creative music on the edge, while the sometimes funky arrangements should make the CD much more palatable to casual listeners. Crackshot covers a lot of ground in its 11 tracks ... Challenging yet oddly accessible. Highly recommended".[2] In JazzTimes Sid Gribetz wrote "The album showcases Baron’s very melodious post-modern drumming, with crisp, articulated, solo passages. The disc also features all Baron compositions, with room for staccato bursts, seemingly unlinked by melody or lyricism, but somehow still very musical. The hearty songs are really riffs for exploration, soul taken downtown".[3]
