AllMusic[3]
The Penguin Guide to Jazz[4]

In his review for AllMusic, Steve Loewy states "Eneidi's somewhat thin sound is distinguished by its wailing quality, one that combines the searing cry of the prophet with a Bird-like post-bop energy.."[3]

The Penguin Guide to Jazz says "The 1998 trio shows off Eneidi at his best, blowing fiercely enough to make his wiry saxophone sound glow with energy. Parker does his usual thing, but Robinson is the real star of the piece, providing a tireless but subtle accompaniment."[4]
