The Rolling Stone Jazz Record Guide[5]

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states "This is one of those must-own recordings for fans of Adams; but it is also for those who revere Mingus' work, because, as radical as some of these interpretations are, they were not only sanctioned by, but delighted in by the composer".[4]
