At the time it was released it received good reviews,[1] but like Kaleidoscope's other albums, it was commercially unsuccessful.
[2] Allmusic's retrospective review hailed the album as flawless brilliance, "the best non-compilation showcase of Kaleidoscope's legendary eclecticism and versatility."
"[3] The track "Taxim" is based on "Şehnaz Longa", a Turkish piece by Santuri Ethem Efendi.
'Louisiana Man' hunts muskrats in the swamps to bagpipe-sounding fiddles, embellished in drums, of course.
'Taxim' is a long oriental-sounding instrumental, featuring excellent musicianship on caz, oud, harp guitar.
