somebody (can't find the link now) sez:
A progressive, daring jazz date. The title track is an impressive answer to the earlier versions by Miles Davis and Jim Hall.
barabara sounds sez:
Damn right it is. Listen to Miles… and then to Hall... and then wrap your ears around Kanai and his quintet. They're not kind-of sort-of "thereabouts": they're absolutely "there". The rest of the album is none too shabby either!
