Down Beat (p.69) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Spalding sings like a cross between Minnie Riperton and Flora Purim, writes in a style recalling Milton Nascimento, and seems indebted to the rich melodies of Stevie Wonder. Her sons sing when she lets the rhythms fly high..."

JazzTimes (p.111) - "Spalding's voice slips through each of her intricately crafted arrangements as if imbued with the spirit of Flora Purim."

Vibe (p.62) - "Spalding has fashioned something cohesive and diverse, calling upon a strong coalition of musicians and the depths of her own skill."
