Space Minds, New Worlds, Survival of America is an album by violinist and composer Leroy Jenkins.
"[4] In a review for AllMusic, Brian Olewnick wrote: "Space Minds, New Worlds, Survival of America represented Leroy Jenkins' first venture into a field where contemporary classical and jazz were beginning to merge, a more modern Third Stream...
The piece uses extensive improvised passages, but both the written material and the rhythms employed are relatively distant from a jazz feel, though with Jenkins a strong blues affinity is never far beneath the surface... Space Minds... is a fine album, one of Jenkins' best outside of the Revolutionary Ensemble, and an excellent introduction to his world.
"[3] The authors of the Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings commented: "Space Minds is... reminiscent of Jenkins's AACM-influenced Revolutionary Ensemble.
"[5] Writing for All About Jazz in 2003, Rex Butters commented: "That this quarter century old artifact sounds as fresh as it does testifies to the vision of its creators... Jenkins and company work wonders on the collective improvs, gracefully weaving and circling each other..."[6] All compositions by Leroy Jenkins.
