Reception
The Allmusic review states: "The Hungarian guitarist doesn't always stretch out as much as he could on this album; at times, he ends a solo that probably should have lasted a few more minutes. But Szabo still deserves credit for bringing a jazz perspective to songs that so many other improvisers were ignoring".Henderson, A. Allmusic Review accessed February 21, 2012
