The contemporaneous DownBeat reviewer, Ira Gitler, concluded: "Gryce has achieved a balance between the blowing and arranged sections. The latter set off the former, investing the soloists' spots with greater interest and making the album a success".[4] AllMusic reviewer Ron Wynn awarded the album 3 stars stating: "This is alternately reflective, dashing, and sentimental."[3]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
