Reception
Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating Allmusic [1] Writing for Allmusic, music critic Bruce Eder wrote of the album "The shifting moods make this album, appropriately enough, a rather dreamlike experience... Kottke's own tunes are reasonably memorable, though the virtuosity tends to overshadow the music itself at times."[1]
