The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings[2]

The album is listed as one of the "Core Collection" albums in The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings.[2] In the later The Penguin Jazz Guide the authors reflected "These eight tunes are the work of a mature and assured composer and the drummer less format keeps the tempos open enough to allow at least some of the songs to change direction internally"[3]

JazzTimes singled out the title track, "Fortune Gardens", "I Never Knew" and "Gates of Saffron" as particularly notable, commenting that with these songs "the trio achieves a collective weaving of lines that is memorable, each player feeding off the ideas of the others", lifting it into the realm of "music of the contemplative."[4]
