Wisdom Through Music

[6][7] In a review for AllMusic, Thom Jurek praised the sense of jubilation on the album, noting "High Life"'s "roiling, celebratory drumming and singing," "Love Is Everywhere"'s "rawness and soulfulness" that "simply burst from the musical frame with celebration," and the "orgy of celebration" heard in "Selflessness.

"[6] Tim Niland of All About Jazz wrote that "percussion and strong beats keep the music from flying off into the cosmos," but noted that the album "does seem a little dated and time-locked at times, with bells and chanting recalling the 1970's in all its hazy glory.

"[8] AAJ's Chris May called the music "sublime," but pointed out the "rather muddy sound, one that does the vocals... no favors.

The actual music is quite satisfactory, but all of the tracks are irredeemably soiled by the insufferable chanting and screeching."

He did, however, remark that "Wisdom Through Music" and "The Golden Lamp" "redeem the proceedings..., both exhibiting restraint while expressing some original and attractive melodies.
