'As evidenced by this release of the set, the music played that night was intimate, even delicate. It still seems that Dixon didn't quite sit down at the table with his mates, and his electronic effects don't do him any favors, but credit seems due to him for keeping the set at an unusual slow burn. There aren't the displays of pyrotechnics evidenced in Taylor and Oxley's duo performances. Instead, piano and drums dance lightly around the trumpet's background wash, creating a music both sparse and dense. The titles, mathematical formulas comprised from the player's initials, offer little guidance for deciphering this perplexing, pastoral set. "B+T+C" seems evident, and "T=CxB" could be speculated upon, but the closing, 81-second piano solo carries the title "CxBxT+T", forcing me to abandon any hope of gaining understanding.' - All About Jazz
