370:"one of Ayler's finest LPs", stating that it "features short themes and improvisations that are accessible, yet experimental and stick in the mind like an earworm long afterward. Ayler re-visits some of his well known themes like 'Ghosts' and 'Bells' re-arranged for lucid short blasts of music. Cobbs' harpsichord is a wildcard, but it works quite well, giving the music an unusual and unique sound. Graves and Silva are an inspired rhythmic team, giving free flow to a wealth of musical ideas and Ayler sounds simply magisterial throughout. 'Universal Indians' shows that they didn't leave their roots behind, it's a free-jazz blowout with a nice trumpet and tenor dialogue that is ripe and torrid, while Graves is simply extraordinary propelling everyone ever onward, it is also the album's one epic, clocking in at almost ten minutes."
377:... is in some ways an attempt by Impulse! to 're-introduce' Ayler. 'Ghosts' and 'Bells' had originally been cut in much more furious and lengthy versions for ESP-Disk; here, the band... focuses more on the melodies than the solos, and the two horns intertwine and converse in a way that's quite beautiful, while also bringing in strong elements of R&B and New Orleans polyphony. Cobbs' harpsichord is a strange and occasionally disquieting element; on 'Dancing Flowers,' he's playing trills that sound like music from the soundtrack to a silent horror movie, as Silva bows the bass portentously and Graves rattles around the kit."

The rhythm section of Alan Silva on bass and Milford Graves on drums continually instigates and propels this music into furious militaristic march territory." An article in
