Nastos said "Drummond's made yet another very fine recording -- what a great treasure jazz has in this bassist, composer, and bandleader. Easily recommended to all lovers of the modern mainstream and jazz in general".Michael G.

An in-depth critical analysis of 1-2-3-4 is unnecessary; it should simply be listened to and enjoyed".AAJ Staff All About Jazz Review accessed May 11, 2018 Track listing All compositions by Ray Drummond except where noted "Ana Maria" (Wayne Shorter) – 8:01 "Ballade Poetique" – 3:55 "Driftin'" – 6:37 "Prelude to a Kiss" (Duke Ellington, Irving Gordon, Irving Mills) – 2:31 "What Is Happening Here" – 8:04 "Little Waltz" (Ron Carter) – 3:59 "Goin' Home" (Traditional) – 7:57 "Kinda Like" – 3:46 "Nefertiti" (Shorter) – 6:53 "Mr. P.C."
