Allmusic     [3]

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated "Trombonist Ray Anderson is typically uninhibited throughout this joke-filled set. His high-note screams are well-matched by trumpeter Lew Soloff and some of the vocals (most notably on the title cut) are memorable. There is some strong playing by the two horns ... the humor and philosophizing are often dominant".[3]
