Press:
"Mal Waldron's dark, circumspect approach is in full force as he carves agile lines with the help of British baritone saxophonist George Haslam... Haslam boasts a singularly attractive, thin tone that balances the pianist's dense styling. The commanding improvisations by both Haslam and Waldron straddle the boundaries of free and post-bop jazz in a compellingly charming way." - **** Steve Loewy, AllMusic
