Reception
The review on
Allmusic noted "This unusual collaboration between pianist Kenny Barron and multi-instrumentalist Mino Cinelu is as difficult to categorize as it is to ignore. The duo covers an extraordinary amount of stylistic ground on the session; though, as the title suggests, things are mostly rooted in a New Orleans flavor. However, this is only a single thread running through the larger tapestry of the music".
