The Allmusic review by Eugene Chadbourne stated "The fact that Braxton had been invited to Japan and had made a superior-quality recording of his own pieces with three good musicians was considered quite important, and it was even assumed by some that the hip Japanese players might have had more success with Braxton's music than some of the squares who were floundering around with it back home and in Europe. ...the skilled and quite creative Japanese musicians confront the dynamic of Braxton. There is a sense of scrambling to some of the forward motion; one imagines Braxton leading the others down a trail that keeps getting steeper and steeper. ...As decades pass, documents such as this are audible pages out of the Braxton diary, memorable moments out of a lifetime of superb musical achievement".[5]
