Steve Huey, writing for AllMusic, stated: "These are frequently fascinating explorations that illuminate a neglected facet of Sharrock's singular style." In an article for The Washington Post, Geoffrey Himes commented: "There's plenty of tension in the duets -- especially when Sharrock adds barbed-wire to his tone and counterpoint to his harmonies -- but there is so much openness and melodicism in the arrangements to make this free jazz at its loveliest."
