At the time of release Ebony reviewer Phyl Garland said "One needn't be a "piano freak" to appreciate a truly new recording. First of all imagine seven gifted and talented pianists sitting down to seven grand pianos and proceeding to tear up these instruments - musically, that is.... The torrrent of sound springing from their 70 fingers is so powerful and majestic as to be unlike anything one has ever heard." Recorded August/December 1974 at Minot Sound.
