Allmusic[3]

Allmusic gave the album 4 stars with Ken Dryden's review stating: "It's easy to understand why Tommy Flanagan has been one of the most praised pianists over the '80s and '90s while listening to an excellent trio date such as this CD".[3] On All About Jazz, Chris M. Slawecki said "in its own dignified, almost quiet, way, Sea Changes demonstrates that Tommy Flanagan remains a musician’s musician in every sense of the word – as an improviser and soloist, as a composer and arranger, as a melodic interpreter and as an accompanist for ample, robust solos by his musical partners".[4]
