Stewart Mason of Allmusic stated, "Black Rhythm Revolution is not a bad album at all; in fact, most of the tracks are good to great, with the lengthy bookends "By the Red Sea" and "Wander" both featuring memorable grooves and tight, compact solos. It's just considerably less intense than the title might lead one to believe".[2] Most critics that listened to the album said, although unknown, one of the better drummer albums of its time.
