AllMusic[4]

The AllMusic review by Ron Wynn stated "Sophisticated, elegant quartet date from 1982, with Art Farmer's serene trumpet and flugelhorn playing setting the tone, backed by tenor and soprano saxophonist Bill Evans, who's more restrained than usual. Carter's bass and Tony Williams' drums are both understated and definitive in their support and backing rhythms".[4] Three of these musicians had major associations with Miles Davis: Carter and Williams from the "great quintet" of the 1960s and Evans from the then-contemporary Davis band.
