Jazz critic Harvey Pekar, writing for DownBeat magazine, had this to say about Garland: "Garland is one of the most important figures in recent jazz piano history. His method of block-chording has influenced many other pianists. Also important is the way he establishes a groove with his left hand..."[3] Scott Yanow noted the album's "unlikely material."[4]
